Ah I forgot we dominated that game from start to finish. My apologies.

You expect us to dominate games from start to finish in this division given the current circumstances at the club? Figures.

That’s a fair comment CR in some respects but as has been reiterated time and time and time again we are where a lot of us expected us to be this season. We’re not going to be pulling up trees.  Staying up, hopefully safely, is the aim and then build from there. This constant slagging is just tiresome as we are where many of us expected us to be this year given the circumstances we find ourselves in.  Losing 2/0 to Sheff U away is not a result that should send people into meltdown. Yes it could’ve been better but it is what it is at the moment.  

I think that most people are fed up with the performances, yep this isn’t a great team, but  getting out done by in the effort stakes time and time again is getting tedious. One of our continually lacklustre midfielders have recently been given a contract extension…What does that say? Swan about for 80 mins, bottle every tackle then get a new contract. Probably sums up this lot, life is far too comfortable for them.

I haven't seen you......but it doesn't take much imagination to conclude what type of person you are?

On to the next one. So we can be outplayed again. 

Corrected for you.

Ah bless. I don’t agree with you so I’m in the wrong . **** off . I couldn’t give a flying **** what you think of me.

Don’t disagree there’s a lot of players that need moving on. But again we are where we are with the squad at the moment. There’s no quick fix and when we have injuries to key players on top of it all then it just compounds it.

And that’s the frightening thing…there’s no quick fix. Relegation is a real possibility on form alone. A return to L1 will do us no favours, and I fear it will result in an extended stay.

Exactly, we need to get the best out of what we have and in the last 2 (even 3) home games we have done that. It is possible.

We lost 2-0 at Sheffield Utd.  Hardly a surprise was it?   The amount of bedwetting about it is amazing

I don’t think many are surprised at the result, Bramall Lane has never been our most successful place to go. I think people are generally fed up with the performance and game management that accompany it…. 

[Waffleflap]

Without the 3 midfielders out injured, we are screwed. I bet fans rub their hands together when they come up against us. Too easy to play against

Again don’t disagree.  But losing today away at Sheff U isn’t going to define our season and whether we stay up or not.  

[Dan Robin]

Despite the weaknesses in the team and the unsatisfying level of play...I honestly think that a City side with a little number of injuries could avoid relegation quite easily: being without Tanner, Williams, King, James, and having some players who probably are not at their best yet (Massengo, Semenyo, Baker) complicate things. 

Hopefully some of them will return/find their form soon and give us a boost.

We were never going to have much of the ball today but our decision making was so poor when we did have it. Can’t think of many occasions where we made more than 5 successful passes in a row.

Yet all I see is people blaming Nigel

Was it Holdens fault last season ?

[johnheadbcfc]

Massengo seems really off his game at the moment!, he's quite obviously capable so hopefully his form turns around soon

[Aberdeen Pete's Dad]

Came up yesterday. Went to see Sheff Wed v Wycombe. Their best players are Jack Hunt (!) and Bannon. There is a big difference between Championship and League 1

Effort WAS there but Sheff United are better. Of course, our midfield is weak

We didn’t play Sheffield United last season.

Ultimately it was Holden’s fault but I’m talking about an individual game whereas you aren’t.

Really doesn’t help him being in and out of the side.

OK the Managers fault last season

[cityexile]

However much we were second best today, it still comes down to moments. Hard to rationalise our defending for the first goal, or Wells inability to square a ball.
