Levein has got till the start of January IMO

[Anish]

Very very disappointing. 11 v 10 for practically a whole half, and we still lose the half 0-1. Dusgusting.

[Ricey]

Very disapointing, throwing away even more points.

You have to look at Leveins line up and subtitutions for blame, why not play Hume etc etc.

[Parsons]

what a joke

[Libertine]

Hammond must never start for us unless there is any injury crisis. Hume all the way FFS.

[Head Honcho]

Does Levein actually want us to win another game wtf is he doing bringing on Dublin

He hasn't got a fvcking clue

[stulcfc]

i am pissed off but i still so think levein can get us in the prem not this session tho

You are pissed up not pissed off

Disappointing to come away with just 1 point.

But on the plus side, we did score twice, and we had a real go at their goal near the end of the first half.

On the down side, the wisdom of replacing MDV with Dion, and Smith with Tiatto must surely be called into question.

[stulcfc]

at least we got 2 goals

[shen]

How could I think that we would win against 10 men being 2-1 up? Silly me. However I'm glad I'm still that naive, as it would be terrible to be ever pessimistic as many of the people are on here. Great to see Joey getting two goals. His place is hopefully just about secure for the rest of the season. Too bad we let it slip....

[Guest seanfox778]

if my 10 year old brother who is a striker can stay onside for a whole game

why can't hammond

Sums it up very well.

Wouldn't count on it pal. You do realise that CL is right up Kisnorbo's ar$£?

Exactly. Kisnorbo is guaranteed a place in the team every game. Reminiscent of Scowy and Adams. <_<

[TornadoShaunUK]

even one of our goals was a god damn peno. What was Joey's first like?

[Ricey]

It's just dawned on me we have a real chance of relegation this season.

Levein hasn't a clue in some areas and he has that Micky-esqu stubborness not to change things when clearly they aren't working.

[TAFKA Castroneves]

fock this, WHAT THE fock IS WRONG WITH US, Why do we make things so bloody hard for ourselves?! WHY? No other team does this, everyone is constantly laughing at Leicester for all these stupid **** gaffs. This is disgusting, absolutly disgusting.

Edit - Apologises for the outburst I am just very annoyed at this very moment.

[Ricey]

Just seen the goals.

Poor wall from us from the free-kick and for their equalizer it was awful defending from us especially McCarthy.

[lookwhaticando]

First issue to be addressed - the line up.

One useful solution: play the correct player in the correct position.

Stearman at LB? Nissa at LB? Maybury at LB? No. We need a LB at LB.

Another useful suggestion: two defensive midfielders are not going to help us score goals when we need them. Granted, Joey scored twice, but how often do we score from midfield? Rarely. Why do we insist on playing Joey AND Kisnorbo? That's practically 6 defenders in 10 outfield players - we're defence-heavy. Hughes + Joey would be a good central midfield combination - Joey can do the defensive stuff allowing Hughes to get creative, and make some more chances.

Finally - Dion should be an emergencies-only striker - if we have a pacey striker available, he should be playing instead. No offence to Dion, but he's much more useful in defence than up front.

Exactly - agree with everything you said, esp the last bit.

[Nationwider]

5 points off the bottom. 26 points off the top.

[Milky]

i don't know whether to laugh or cry.

i'm not sure how many more of these late equalisers i can take.

the worse thing is though, i was expecting them to score the equaliser, so when it did happen i just didn't react, i was waiting for it.

[Milky]

at least we are 9 points off 6th. though that is a distant dream, i just want us to stay up!

[Ajax Treesdown]

Nice one lads!
