We need a leader to carry the team forward ( in midfield) ,someone to roll up their sleeves and lead by example, we've too many "nice," players but don't want to get a foot in or show some desire !

Wilde has lost his nerve. The free flowing football from the early season is stuff of dreams.... he’s scared of losing instead of trying to win. Fortunately there are some very poor teams with less points than us. Every point from now is massive. ( University of the Bleeding obvious I know). We do seem to be in free fall.

As an aside RIP Gianluca Vialli.

We've been crap since McClelland got injured and for some reason this has effected Farman ,Canavan should be going mad and barking order's to the defence but doesn't!

We have lost our mojo. Defensively minded but it's made us so much worse. Have to change this formation and get some width going forward. Get Newby and Gordon on ASAP.

How long are we going to have to wait before we see our new signings play.Our players are totally outclassed.It,s pointless bringing players in if we are going to have to wait weeks to see them in the team.

Waters out of nowhere to reduce the deficit, right on half time.
Popular side since '03.

Its not any individual. The team as a defensive unit comes undone time and again and we concede soft goals. The game plan for Wild goes out the window. I’d say his line up was right for this fixture but we are chasing the game and it becomes even harder to get anything here

Can’t help thinking the transfer window and 15 players out of contract is upsetting the group. Wild said himself there has been a lot of interest in our players.Heads getting turned deals being dangled to players means they ain’t going to be fully focused

This is Newby's first eligible game and he's on the bench, hardly "weeks".
