  I'm taken aback by how far we regressed in that match. I don't even know what to say about the tactics. We struggled to get forward again and amazingly almost every touch I saw on the attack was heavy. So many heavy through balls and lobs. Its nuts. To me it seemed, save a few players, our players have lost confidence completely. Jaakola - 5 - Yes he made some good saves towards the end. Boltons goals were savable. Gunter - 5 - Guilty of many heavy touches. Thought he was very, very poor. McShane - 6 - Had some good drives forward but wasnt great. I cant remember him making a single tackle? Moore - 8 - Great player in a very poor…

  For a team that has one of the best defenders of a generation as the manager our defense has been quite honestly fucking appalling. Coupled with the fact we have practically zilch up front it makes for a massively unbalanced and inconsistent team. Sure we looked decent against Wolves on the highlights, and many of their fans said we deserved at least a point but that's totally irrelevant when we have no consistency going forward and our defense is consistently leaking goals. The playoffs look out of reach barring an automatic promotion style run of form and that's not going to happen with our lack of firepower. Stam takes a chunk…

  We were awful in the first half. Yes we had most of the ball, but we did nothing with it. Then Swift got injured, Clement came on...first thing he did was miss the near post header and allowed Pratley to flick it on for Burke. He had the freedom of Bolton to head it back over Jaakkola. The second was even worse. This time Pratley was left completely free and headed in. Bolton were the polar opposite of our style and EXACTLY what you’d expect from Parky. However they were very clear in what they were trying to do and looked dangerous every time they came forward. Our first half was summed up by Jaakkola taking a goal kick amd…

  We did well to come back from conceding 2 such awful goals Another poster commented how good it was to see Yann at Wolves, mainly due to his defending at set pieces. Clearly missed him massively there. Joey as well to a lesser extent Two more assists by Barrow. Glad him and Aluko continue to play well Bod/Yann need to get themselves fit and in the side. That’s the biggest single change we need to make

  good character to come back from 2 down. i thought my prediction of 5-0 was going to be correct at one point! when the year ends in 8, we quite often get relegated....

That’s the biggest single change we need to make That was me. I also pointed out defensively we were still a shambles and questioned how Beerens was getting a game. Those two points are still very valid. Do we need a refresh in the coaching staff? Clearly we’re making easily…
