My take ...

That was a hard game to give ratings out of ten on. We looked knackered after 15 minutes and it turned into a right fucking mess. As soon as they started closing us down we went all panicky and did that fucking God awful death by a hundred passes across the back followed by an aimless boff up the pitch. First half was fucking wank and had Wes not made that excellent stop we couldn't have complained if we'd gone in behind at half time.

Second half wasn't much better then we crafted a goal for let's be honest, a shockingly bad Sander Berge. He was bollocksed from the off and never looked interested. MGW looked off the pace, Billy looked like he needs a rest and only Norwood looked like he wanted us to get going.

I thought Osborne, fucking shocking finishing apart, at least put some effort in. Being one footed and playing out of position really doesn't help. Gordon's learning every game, RND isn't good enough and Egan never looks like he's bossing it any more. Robinson was sound and it says it all when we win two nowt and our best players were the goalie and a sub standard centre half playing out of his skin.

We need this break like you wouldn't believe, let's hope we come back buzzing.

Disgraceful to boo your own players even Lundstram never got that at least McBurnie does try.

I don't know what weird mental process goes through the mind of someone who thinks barracking a player will make him perform any better.

When the likes of McBurnie enter the field I have an inward groan to myself but that's the extent of it. Sometimes, like Robinson, players surprise you and find hitherto unseen levels of competence, but that's not achieved by destroying what's left of their confidence.

On the Lundstram comparison - well, Lundstram wasn't playing in front of any sort of crowd during his last few months of total awfulness. Had there been anyone in attendance I'm sure it would have been a different matter. And even then it would have been counter-productive - although even I'm finding it hard to imagine how much worse he could possibly have got.

We looked tired yesterday, it was a scruffy win but an important one .
We lacked our usual intensity both going forward & in getting the ball back . I said after last weeks hiding if we could get 4points this week I’d be happy & we’ve done that .
Thank fk we’ve got a 2 week break , hopefully have some more players back for the run in
