Marshall Cockney Fox

I'm generally more measured than some of my foxes brethren. But I'm fully aboard the Cooper out bus now. He's clueless. And will take us down if left in charge.

Same problems game after game. If you don't fix them you deserve to be sacked.

Is it beyond reasonable to just want a clean sheet at half time - just once??

Very hungover and feeling fragile. Shall I swerve it and go see Paddington instead??

Mavs has been off it for several games now. A real worry as with Fats being so young and naturally inconsistent. You need the senior winger to at least be consistent. Just not consistently poor.

I've always said that Soumare if anything has the skill set to be an attacking midfielder. Strength, a bit of pace, and some technical ability. But he's clueless defensively and doesn't read the game properly. There's ability in the lad. But no idea how you best harness it in a team structure.

We need a bloody clean sheet and to defend effectively as a team. We will score. But need to sort our porous defence out.

I hope the wing boys step it up from the Forest game. As both were poor. And I think Mavs is in a bit of a rut at the moment.

What are people hoping from a return of Vestergaard? He would improve our use of possession. But would he really stop us spreading our legs like a hooker on Black Friday? Sorry mum

When we got relegated. Rogers had us haemorrhaging goals. This just feels the same. You can't win matches if you always concede at least 2 if not more. I'd accept his limited forward play if we were tight at the back. But we are every teams Xmas come early.

I'll take any manager who can organise our defence. As we seem capable of scoring against Prem teams. But simply can't stop conceding. Which is a fast track to oblivion!

At least we know our inability to defend all season isn't a personnel issue. They collectively can't defend for @#£&!!! We are so porous game after game

I understand that Ipswich is a huge game. But with all these international breaks. Some of those lads seriously don't need a rest.

I'm almost scared to ask. But is this likely to be streamed? As I could probably do something more constructive with my evening.

I thought there was some nice interplay between him and Winks when in possession. But as he was RB, the defensive stuff is always the priority first.

If you didn't think this season would be turbulent - with the good, the bad, the ugly and the shambolic. Then you were remarkably optimistic. Cooper is part of the problem. But not the whole of it. This is going to be a painful and exhausting season regardless. Just strap in and take a deep breathe.

Absolutely. I felt pretty positive at half time. That goal chopped our legs off. And we then handed them on a plate to Forest.

There's a lot of negativity and pain on this platform. Which I understand as we just lost to the trees. But I want to be pragmatic and recognise a positive. Yes we made catastrophic defensive errors, yes our final 3rd delivery was woeful. But some of the CM play yesterday to create space and move the ball up the park was really refreshing. And actually looked like football I could get behind. Just saying!

Once it bounced it was a tricky ball to deal with. I think Mads should have been assertive, read the situation and taken care of it rather than Faes. But once it was left to Wout, feck knows what he thought he was doing

Fats played like a Tigers inside centre last night. Rather than hit the space on the outside. He seemed to lock his radar on to the biggest gaggle of red shirts available - then run straight at them. Shockingly poor decision making all night. Very disappointing all night.

He's a fully committed and talented young man. Doesn't always make the right choice or release it early enough. But he never shys and keeps working hard regardless.

For once I'm not jumping on an anti Cooper bandwagon. We lost due to individual defensive cock ups. Which can't be levied at Cooper. Some of our central midfield play was excellent tonight. But was undermined by shocking defending and poor final 3rd play.

He's a very limited player. Hard working and commited. But will not create much or overly influence attacking play. But he's definitely got a place in the squad for locking it up and consolidating where we are in the final 20+ mins. A player for holding on, not chasing a result. Saying that he bagged the winner. So perhaps all I've just said is rubbish!!!

I see that as quite a bold selection. Not sure El K is being well managed by Cooper

An opportunity to get back to back win and push us up the table makes this huge. However, I have limited confidence in us (Cooper) not fluffing our lines!
