Maybe the way forward is to produce slow, stodgy wickets for T20s at GR. In a low scoring game, it gives the underdog a better chance of winning, I think. If yesterday's pitch had been a road, it's very unlikely we would have outscored their batting line up.

Yes, definitely 12th man today!

Ha! Was hoping people would miss it in the excitement of a great win! I'm putting it down to brilliant reverse psychology!

Another embarrassingly heavy defeat incoming.

Yorkshire just too strong. 5 or 6 international class players.

Irrespective of whether Martin is any good (the evidence suggests he's not great), the biggest worry is that the club are going to appoint another manager who the fans are so opposed to. This is the last thing we need right now, given how crucial it is for the club to get the fans back onside and connected.

Getting Big Nige vibes about Challinor. Would definitely support his appointment.

Agree strongly. Playing the second leg of a semi in a full Stadio Olympico against a team managed by Mourinho can hardly be compared to Palace beating a team unable to play at their home ground and denuded of their star players by an ongoing war.

Just be glad the red shite cheated their way into the Europa League as it could have been them winning a trophy last night, with the prospect of a second European season to follow.

The ending summed up our performance today. Appalling.

This bloke didn't even bowl in their two previous matches and gets 6 wickets tonight!

I'm not sure batting first would have made much difference to the result. We'd have got about 160 and they'd have knocked them off in about 15 overs. We are just way off the level required. The batting lacks reliable power hitters, the bowling is inaccurate and the fielding unreliable. Losing to these so heavily is unacceptable. Bloke who has 4 wickets for them is basically a part time bowler.

I really am the kiss of death this year. Stopped watching and we get about 85 off 6 overs. Start watching again and we lose both batsmen immediately!

Optimistic

Wow, this is properly depressing.

All the good work across recent overs undone in 6 balls by Mike. As the commentator said, what is his plan? Just bowled all over the place.

Some of the fielding has been horrendous.

This is done already. What a miserable sporting year it's been for Leicester.

Reckon Hull could be going for 50-60 today if he bowls his full allocation. Actually, maybe even if he doesn't!

That Derby top 6 is full of power hitters. This could be carnage.

Yes, agree with all that. The other thing that annoyed me about the documentary was Rob Tanner being incredibly patronising about the club and its history every time he appeared.

Agree that we've been totally outplayed in both games so far. What would be your team for the next game, out of interest?

Just looked back. Won 1 of the last 16 games in all competitions. Hadn't realised it was that bad.

Looks like this season is going to be a very hard watch.

See that Worcs, having beaten us comprehensively, are being hammered by Northants at home.....
