    To be fair as much as I love ripping into the gas, league cup first round attendances are always poor and we're no different. 

    I agree but look what's at stake...a trip to the bridge....you'd have thought at least another 3 or 4 would've made the effort.....

    I think people need to be a little more realistic. There is clearly a strong gap between the better sides and where we are right now. Yes we beat Boro twice, but the reality is what we should all know. We are a cobbled together squad that is trying to avoid relegation. The better sides have more power, more energy, can run further , faster, and on top of that are technically better, with more experience and have a depth of squad we do not have. But , they also have a wage bill many times more than ours. We are work in progress, and our aim is survival, Tuesday is our big game, not Hull away. We will need some time to build a squad, we have many loan players, have gaps to fill all over , and it will take more than 10 games with LJ in charge. We have to improve the squad quality , we all know that, it's a big challenge, but at least there is a clearer recognition of what we need to compete (getting promoted is another thing altogether), and we need to give the new off the field time to show their impact. Preston have shown us you can compete within the constraints we have. 

    Whilst I agree with everything above ,how many times have we heard the 'work in progress' statement as well as the players are still learning at this level? ...how long does it take? We have very few games remaining and yet they're still learning and we are still a work in progress...lets hope we can maintain our championship status and continue to build for next season.

    Believe me there are ZERO positives from todays performance......

    We gave a team of quality loads of space to dictate the game.....esp Snodgrass.....add to that a very lacklustre midfield and blunt attack and Poor tactics from the start...

    No other way to put it.....

    but do not lose faith....the players know they were poor and will comeback fighting..

    Only thing now is to have a few ziders and wait for the long trip home...

    Roll on tuesday

     

    I agree...and if kodjia could manage to stay onside...even better!
