Got to play both Archer and Wood in Perth, then rotate for the rest of the series- if we go 1-0 down then we've had it.

I agree, but can't see us being successful again as long as the current hierarchy renains in place. Something has to give or the downward spiral will continue, and we'll continue to shed matchgoing fans.

The problem, which I feel the club are imminently about to discover, is that this sort of clientele are the ones who won't stick around when things get tough. They'll be desperate for the 'custom' of the ones they've alienated and pushed out soon enough.

I'd be on the M62 by now. They've got plenty to shout about though- none of it good.

You might even get to see Skipp and Kristiansen second half too... full (shit)house.

No collective professional pride within this group, demonstrated time and time again. Marti's still picking the main culprits, mind.

Fair play to anyone going to this. Honking mid-week away day.

It's the keeper and centre backs dicking about with it in their own box from goal kicks which keeps me coming back. Class.

When your best option up top is a completely bereft of confidence Patson Daka, you know you've got issues. Carranza looks lightweight and bang average, and I despise watching Jordan Ayew and his holding on to the ball for too long/falling over routine.

I'm a long way from piling in on Marti, but he's the one picking them every week isn't he

Too early to go in with a two-footed judgement, but I certainly wouldn't be starting him.

That's on the manager to figure out. Painfully obvious from where we're all sitting.

Carbon copy of Wrexham. Decent first half, do the hard part and get ourselves in front then inexplicably take our foot off the gas and throw away 2 points against, let's face it, little more than lower league cloggers who just fancied it more than us. Pathetic. Needs fixing, fast.

I reckon 85 points gets you autos this season.

Doesn't matter, it's ours. The national anthem is absolute dirge but doesn't stop people belting it out, and most songs sound alright when there's enough involvement- I think WYS now sounds decent before kick off.

2 points off 2nd just shows how poor the standard is this season. Not sure how I feel about a potential title race with Cov.

Probably our best 90 minute performance of the season. Just showing a few signs of improvement... if we've used that second half disaster against Wrexham as a lesson, then great. Team looks far more balanced with an actual striker and 10 in the side.

Why give the ref (who's most likely useless, at this level) a decision to make? Braindead, and that's always been Faes' problem.

These are just an even worse version of us. Slow, ponderous, possession-at-all-costs drivel. Awful half of football.

Could you if they put 2 minutes of adverts on between each move, though? That's the main reason I find American football unwatchable, the intense commercialisation of it all.

Daka got the assist and ran himself into the ground mid-week- deserved another crack at it today. Besides, the jury is still out on Carranza and I've had enough of watching Ayew's 'unnecessarily holding onto the ball for too long and falling over' routine already this season.

People having a pop at Abdul... mental. Have a look at the 'movement' in the box next time he tries to cut in. Nobody else wants the ball in the final third.

Glossed over the FA Cup win, but it's a fairly amusing article and some of the digs at our current state of affairs are completely accurate.
