Collymore

He got on Big Nige's naughty step. That normally either ends with lack of game time and a transfer or a headbutt. Luckily for Max he escaped with no brain damage and had a very decent career.

Look at the amount of assists Howard got! Two upfront with a big strong target man knocking it down for the sublime finisher! Feels like we're making the game so over complicated at the moment.

Last time we were in League 1 Matty Fryatt had scored a ridiculous amount by Christmas, there was a back to back hattrick in there and you could point at him and say "he has stepped up at this level" I'm sick of hearing it with our players at the moment - commentator last night for example with Howell "he will be unplayable in L1" (or something along those lines) My Sunderland supporting mates "Watson is going to light it up for you" "Chaplin will be good for 20 goals at least" Who's going to be the one who is actually going get the ball in the back of the net? We shouldn't be coming away from games saying "we lost but looked so promising" we need some of these to step up and actually take responsibility and use their talent at this level with Martin managing them or not. Yes, 'Brussell Ball' is a massive barrier and could mean that no one is ever destined to shine under him, but still at this level you'd expect some individual brilliance now and then, a bit like James stepping up last season. Go on then, which one(s) of you is it going to be? When I visit this thread at Christmas, which one of you are we going to say stepped up in the end?

Andy King can fcuk off n'all. Sick of seeing him whispering s*it in the manager's ear. Place needs gutting from top to bottom including kit man and tea lady. Starts from the top with new owners who gut the place. Worst thing that can happen now is Brussell getting a few lucky results and buying him time. Unless something clicks and we can hand on heart say we've turned the corner, just get rid as soon as we can.

The goal that was given offside for Ipswich had classic Jakub palming the ball into the danger area. It's his signature flaw.

He doesn't even get on the ball to make mistakes so we can't even have multi-dimensional hatred for him.

Yes.

Page, Alves. Braybrooke, Aluko, Joseph should be starting but I have no idea with the other 6.

Coulabaly or Aluko was turned like a 7 year old boy and then Thomas had forgot what position he was playing it looked like.

Crazy that we have absolutely no idea what the strongest side is.

I'm at a loss with people finding positives from that performance. We're fundamentally floored. If we can't score goals then we're going to lose the majority of games where we concede. We concede because we are guaranteed to give away 3 or 4 gift wrapped chances per game by over playing. I could stomach playing this way if we're winning games 4-3 and creating great chances but we look absolutely clueless in the final third. I'd say there is a 80 -90% chance of relegation if Brussell stays - I'm not being over dramatic.

Can't work out if this is sarcasm or not!

Surely this Blackpool bloke needs a go?

Disappointed the ref didn't wear white shorts too to make it even more confusing.

IIRC didn't we start quite strong last season and then it all went to pot?

He never works Christmas apparently...

I actually thought the lack of content might be Brussell installing his new philosophy. We've had loads of content in the past - if my memory serves me correct videos and videos of players like BDCR, Coady etc banging on about what a privilege it is to sign for this fantastic club. I even remember Golding tromping around the gaff with a camera as if he was the new Neymar! Maybe it's now a case of letting your feet do the talking? ...or most likely I'm over thinking and it's just the new bloke's ways!

Yeah and I've also noticed there's been no interviews with any of the new signings.

Sorry if that has been mentioned but did anyone notice McCarthy kicking it long and going a bit direct V Notts? Perhaps Brussell's attempt at "mixing it up" a bit. Only problem was we didn't have any players who could get hold of the ball!

Sorry if this has been mentioned/answered but why have the club removed the section from the ticket map?

Looked a unit and tried to make a few runs that weren't found by our tiring team. Didn't really see him getting the ball in the box or have any chance to shine really and didn't see him in a foot race with anyone. If anything I'd say he looked slightly "thick set" but that might be his physique. Would have been interesting to see what he would have done with the chances BDCR had.

Looks quicker than I thought

If I start a Martin out thread will it be deleted? Those subs after going 1-0 up absolutely horrific and unforgivable
