Been saying it for ages, we are just far to soft 

A relegation battle could be on and I wouldn’t fancy our gutless wonders in that. For the first time in a few years there are no real ‘dead certs’ for relegation - just a lot of teams that could finish anywhere between 24th and 16th

Gonna need 50 + to survive, fancy us to be very close to the zone once the other teams catch up games next mid week

[Sturny]

We've taken back only 1 point from losing positions so far this season? Did I hear that right?

Based on what? He jumped with the defender. It's offside, you don't have to touch the ball to be offside.

Yep sorry edited post, saw the replay again and I think you might be right 

[cityexile]

Shades of home v’s Swansea last year. 

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Decision making is so poor tonight, getting into ok positions and then fluff it

[Wanderingred]

Three points off the bottom 3 as things stand, having played at least a game more than anybody behind us. If we weren’t already, we are definitely in a relegation battle now.

I mean the only reason I'd agree is because our finishing seems to have dried up, with clinical finishing we'd probably be 3-0 up now rather than 1-0 down. It's fair to say we have mistakes in us in defence but we spent the almost the whole first half dominating and the defence was playing great, that one mistake has changed the game and it's come down to Sheffield United being more clinical when it counts.

Hopefully ‘Nige’ will do another interview about being a leader and how he has changed the culture at the club 

We’ve gone from a soft touch of a team who can’t defend and can’t  take chances, and turned into a team who is a soft touch, can’t defend and can’t take chances

Probably

Can't wait for the standard Martin Semenyo double sub 

[marcofisher]

We haven’t played badly and that goal should have never have stood. Let’s not have a complete meltdown! 

[Super]

Somebody turned crowd volume up?

[slartibartfast]

You could write the ****** script !

And it’s an all to familiar story unfortunately

Great run by Scott.

Yep, we have been the better side for 60 mins. Unlucky with a shit decision, some poor decision making in the final third. Comfortably outplaying a top side. When it's not going your way this is what you get.

[cidercity1987]

That's a pen mind

[MarcusX]

That looked a foul on Wells

[tts_city]

might as well do away with pens for us...

[Spike]

******* BULLSHIT!!! How is that not a penalty!?!!!!

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Weimann wingback i'm guessing.

The amount of sideways passes when there is a chance to get in and around the sides is driving me doolally, the only way we've gotten through with those lazy passes is Scott going on a run himself.

[Fammyfan]

I wouldn’t blame Zak on this one…on watching the replay, he appears to give Tanner the call to mark Ndiaye but Tanner ends up coming inside, leaving Ndiaye unmarked

[Bris Red]

Blatant foul Wells then

Give it a rest, Jesus, we are a better team than when Nigel got on board, you have to admit that. Our problem remains consistency.
