full time.

3-1 Preston, unlucky with the 2nd goal but overall they were the better side 2nd half imo.

Cant really comment on the first as much

Oh well, another disappointing result after a promising first half.

It is now mathematically impossible for us to make the top six, but we also cannot be relegated ;)

Preston got the breaks and we got Ekuban missing grade A chances ..Not much in this really. Had we got the second we'd have probably won the game ...

Under Heck I`ve never felt we have played with a purpose or system...just randomly picked teams playing without a clue.

Don't think I can do ratings as I missed 25 minutes of the first half ...

Hernandez MOTM from what I saw though

Let`s be honest: we are garbage. New players MUST come in, quality players.

Great updates. Sad, feel sorry for the fans traveling, that loyalty is being taken for granted.

I agree with that. Managers who come in to a struggling squad low on confidence usually go back to basics, get organised and do simple things well, we don’t seem to have worked on anything :duno:

I know it’s a moot point but put Wood and Bartley back in that team and I think we are a different proposition.

We had a proven CB and attacker. Don`t think either could have been kept to be honest.
Even if you pay 8 million you won`t have the guarantee that a player will deliver...but if you don`t take thee gamble
you`ll never have a chance...can`t see us splashing that money for single players I`m afraid.

Not even upset anymore.

I've found if you expect to lose before the start you feel much better at full time.

I saw the selection of Anita and couldn't even be bothered after that.

I know we called for changes to see what a few others could do (mainly U23s) but that lineup was beyond a joke. Roofe is Div1 quality, a likeable lad but he isn’t going to ever be a Championship player. Anita at LB how many more times does anyone need to see he isn’t a LB and never will be.

Saiz and Alioski on the bench, why! Even more so why do we go back to 4-4-2 when we haven’t the players for it? Hernandez drifts in, he can’t play wide outside and is ineffective if expected to do so. It was a disgusting pi$$ take of a lineup...

In total agreement Richard. We may have an injury crisis but why then make the team even weaker. I was going to post before the match that PH would probably choose Anita at left back but I didn't even think he was that stupid - sadly I was mistaken.

Look I know when I posted about non-verbal communication through body language
it sort of got dismissed as sort of pseudo science, but nevertheless police agencies
are taught to look for discrepancies between speech and the words being said and what
the body language is saying.

Turn the sound off on this video and watch how PH moves is hands and body. He starts off
the the hand washing technique just like Pilate. Hands in pockets defiant, Arms crossed over
chest defensive, pulling at the collar like a hangman's noose around his neck. covering the mouth
as if to stop the words escaping, neck stroking to calm himself. He is a fidgeting mess, regardless
of the words he might be saying. He is not long for this job. He is a man that exudes a lack of
confidence, and I suppose that gets transmitted to the players, which then expresses itself
in poor performances. It is a truism to say that he has lost the dressing room... not that he ever had it.
Just one bad result after another, and people still want to give him time. Enough is enough.

Same here, I expect that we will get beat, and then I take some weird consolation that I got it right.
