Poor defending and poor goalkeeping
Missing Cooper already

Richard Kone could be some player. I've never seen a player terrorise Pidge as much as he did.

Must be just me that thinks we got well beaten by a very good and very confident side. Such it up and move on, we've nabbed points playing far worse than that.
Two howlers meant 0-2 and they never looked like losing that lead.
You can't legislate for mistakes like those. Or a first choice keeper catching flu or whatever he's in bed with.
We weren't good, I'm not.pretending we were, but sometimes you just get done by a better team playing well, no matter how much effort you put in.
Dan had a poor.game, Reid and Roberts did little to nothing, Pidge dropped a clanger as did Taye. None of their starting 11 had a bad game, that's the difference.
I'd have liked to see us go 3 at the back with Smith on to see him and Butler higher up, but Revs doesn't change from a 4 often.

Kind of agree. Lost to a better side, albeit we made it easier for them.
Can we please stop playing Young on the left though?

By far my biggest criticism of Revs.

Revs is falling into the age old trap of shoe horning players into the XI. Young has to play in the centre.

Compare Reid with Kone. Chalk and Cheese. Reid doesn’t deserve to be near the starting XI.
None of our strikers have the hunger or desire to be first choice.

Yeah to be fair I spent this afternoon watching top of the table Sheffield United after 9 consecutive home wins play like total cunts and lose. Some teams wilt on Boxing Day for whatever reason. Agree with Chuds that this lot get to tell their kids Santa isn't coming next year now.

Wycombe were the best side I've seen this year, but we absolutely gift wrapped that for them.
A side with a clear game plan and tactics, perfectly set up for League One football.

Revs gave them the benefit of the doubt this year. Well, he better have those fuckers in on Christmas Day next year, if he is still here, after that shit.

Are you turning on our manager?

Re: Match Thread losing 1-0

Moreso the players after that.
Edit: And not "turning on", no. But that was wholly unacceptable. However, we were five unbeaten prior to today, and had consecutive home wins, and we are above all bookies expectations for the season, despite having had some serious injuries to key players. Overall we are doing just fine. A response needed the next two games though, against sides we are competing with and should be finishing above.

Still 7 points off relegation so no change in my view of manager. If he keeps that buffer between us and the bottom that's fine. Don't care if we are 12th or 20th as long as we have a 3 game gap and not just 3 points off relegation (as we were before the last few games).

Losing to a side who has been flying all season, and scoring for fun all season, is not an issue. They are better than us.
It was the manner of the performance, with every single player (I will probably excuse NT from that, especially with a couple of crucial saving tackles) looking like they were still stuffed full of turkey and christmas pudding. So slow, so lethargic, so poor.
As you know, I didn't even return for the second half. I normally don't have a HT drink at all so I don't miss anything, but today I spent the entire second half in the bar and watched it on my phone instead, such was the non-performance. I bloody knew it would be like that from the minute I woke up and saw the weather too. MEH.

The first goal was 100% down to Pidge. Terrible first touch gifting them the ball, then just blocking the player and a good striker doing what a good striker does, putting the ball away (doubt our strikers would have done the same). No fault of the keeper there.
A miskick for the second, but many keepers do that and get away with. Unlucky that it landed to what appears to be a quality striker with another quality finish.
Didn't really see the third as decided to play mario kart with my nieces instead of watch the second half. Did we get a shot on target? Usually hope for one of those a game.

We hit the bar once.
And had a shot blocked (by our own player) early in the second half when we had a decent enough 7-10 minutes, but no, their GK never made a save IIRC.
