We have had ample evidence of the two tier nature of the Championship. This is yet more.... it doesn't stop the midfield at least competing RR and I saw precious little of that, we allowed ourselves to be bullied in midfield the whole game and I never saw one leader in midfield, it was powder puff stuff IMHO.

What we are is 6 points clear of the relegation zone. No one in the relegation zone has won today. Calm down. Quote Link to comment
samo II Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 1 minute ago, Kingswoodactor said: Agree totally. He should have started today, as Dawson has been allowed to play it around at his own leisure, as well as dominating everything in the air. Wilbs would have made it much more uncomfortable for their backline from the off. Little Lee got this one wrong today... My hope is he was playing a more 'gung-ho' selection today as he was saving the likes of Wilbs and Smith for Tuesday. As it stands; we'll need to beat Rotherham - their form is crazy, and unless we stop them, they'll put us right back in the fight, and we can't allow that. Fulham have done us a bit of a favour today too; still 6 points off the drop zone, despite a thrashing. Onwards to the next one; Tuesday night we'll need to be on fire, as Rotherham are hot right now. 2 Quote Link to comment
cityexile Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Against it must be said a better side, made it easy for them. Need to play better on Tuesday, against a Rotherham who just seem to find wins when they have no right to, Disappointing for sure, time to re group again. Quote Link to comment

WayOutWest Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 In fairness the last two results typify our season. Win some lose some. This group of players have enough to stay up. Today was not our day, but honestly did anyone think it would be? Two more wins. Stevo Quote Link to comment
Lanterne Rouge Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Stelling saying Rotherham look safe and MK look doomed. I suspect that is probably the case. Quote Link to comment
Northern Red Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 We were safe 2 weeks ago, apparently. Now one loss and we're back in the shit. Quote Link to comment
Kingswoodactor Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Expected to lose today, just not in that powder puff manner. That's what pisses me off, not the losing, but the way in which we did. 1 Quote Link to comment

I hope we don't pack out our squad with League One players. A few shrewd signings are one thing; buying unproven talent and has-beens is what I'm far more used to. 1 Quote Link to comment

Wanderingred Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) How about the thought police go **** themselves? I'm not personally going to moan because I don't think today makes any difference to how our season will pan out and we already knew how woefully inadequate we are against the top sides. But If people want to express their frustration after a horrid performance then they have every right to post their thoughts without "super fans" getting in their face. Good night all and here's to bouncing back on Tuesday. Edited April 2, 2016 by Kim_il_sung 2 Quote Link to comment

bobbyhutchscurlymullet Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Kevin Friend was the ref at Rotherham v Leeds. Surely he should have booked the rotherham player for diving! Quote Link to comment

If we say draw, and MK fail to beat Wolves, it will still be as you were. Quote Link to comment
1960maaan Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 To start with a little perspective. While we have had a decent run WE are in a relegation fight after promotion. THEY are going for automatic promotion after being in the Prem last year. They were bigger, stronger and simply better than us. Today while JB and Pack did OK they were out gunned , Korey would have made a difference but not to the result. We were off the pace and Hull were good. At the end of the day if we can win Tuesday , it will be better than winning today and losing Tuesday. There were no obvious pluses today, all they can do is move on and get a result against Rotherham. 6 Quote Link to comment

Gert Mare Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Not over yet. Rotherham on fire under Warnock. They will beat us Tuesday. FFS! No Jeff and no social media tonight....The squatters have never felt more like singing the blues again! Colin Daniel scored this afternoon so they can **** off n'all!
