Lost a lead of 6 points in 4. Our defending is killing our momentum.

McEntee was dire; Big Dave has been crap for 5 games now; TA is always a 7/10 but daft to get sent off.

Needs sorting immediately.

Lowie is such a massive miss. He scored goals in games when we weren’t at our best and that was often the difference.
Also his work off the ball was tremendous
I honestly didn’t think that we would drop like this though after he was recalled.
Still positive though :+1:

Starts at the back, can’t keep conceding 2 a game and expecting to get results

We now play like bottom 5

I can’t see where we are going to get the 20 points from now given the games we’ve got.

I think we have to prepare ourselves for the inevitable.

Fatigue
Heavy pitches
Teams sussing us out 2nd time round
Losing lowe
Playing Albert up front

We all called it

Such a shame for the fans who take their kids and all the option ones

Oh definitely, subbing Matt wasn’t the issue - it was who he subbed him for. Lost our physicality.

As someone who has lived there for 16 years, it is nothing to be proud of, I can assure you.

Pitch & Ref were awful, but so were we. Worrying loss of form, composure & discipline; needs sorting & sorting fast.

Wanting. Fat fingers

The main difference today? Someone knew how to play on a tactical level. Other things were just a consequence of that. I always knew that games against teams like that could go wrong. It’s not the end of the world, but it takes a lot of thinking to get back to a certain level.

Obviously Lowe is a miss - but that’s a cop out a little.

We haven’t played well for weeks. We had the silly McEntee as an 8 period, the wing backs have been pushed back and worked out, the midfield hasn’t been stable, and we are continuing to bring on Adomah as a centre forward.

I couldn’t care less what he does to sort it out, but he needs to for Tuesday. It’s not working, and we look a shadow of 2 months ago.

I don’t think it’s Jamma being subbed that’s being questioned. More why the replacement was Albert instead of Levi or DJ.

Agree with El N Allen has been on the slide for a while now, Barrett also from being 8/9s earlier in the season to 5s as of late

We are well sussed!!

Spot on, Lowe leaving doesn’t explain 11 conceded in the last 5. Most of them stinking goals to give away too

Hair dryer treatment needed after that performance.

It’s gone from winning 9 on the bounce and thinking we only need another 7 or 8 wins to go up to where’s the next win coming from.

If we lose the next couple of games I’d sack sadler and get someone in to finish the season off.
Sadler is obviously struggling and is tactically inept and is lost and we just can’t afford to give this season up even if it may seem harsh on sadler .
Promotion at all cost
