Although undefeated at home until today, we’re a hard watch at home. Shows performances really do matter. We’d lose a few with Mowbray in charge but we’d have a real go with some entertaining football.
Does Jobe need a rest? He looked 2 yards off it today. He had a few opportunities to score but was too slow to react today. Even just bringing on Aleksic for him with 20-30 mins to go would have been a smart choice/option.
Does Patto need a stint out? I think he needs to work on commanding his area. Did he shout at Roberts to leave that ball? Would have and should have been an easy take.
I think we need a set piece coach. A. For attacking on set pieces. & B. For defending them. What we are doing is not working. Even free kicks we get in opponents half. We tend to play a lot short & quick. Where other teams turn them into a set piece attack at goal when they are just over half way.
Are the EFL/PGMOL or whoever is responsible not embarrassed by how little time the ball is actually in play? Referees have no control or authority when it comes to time wasting and teams will continue to abuse it unless something changes. Not at all why we lost today but it’s still a huge issue imo.
Is our league position a detriment? They must know top 2 is gone and we likely won’t drop below 4th. They are at risk of coasting into the playoffs with no momentum at all.
Is there a reason why Le Bris continues to play the same starting 11 and seems reluctant to change even though performances are dipping? I understand the need for some continuity, but it feels a little like it's coming at the detriment of the team when there are now good options waiting
Although a poor run of form is obviously never a good thing, is it better to happen now to then (hopefully) regain momentum ahead of the playoffs should we finish there?
We will finish in the play offs.
The others near us are due a blip as they can't keep up the pace. We may not get in the top 2, but it's still possible.
If we don't we're in a better position to win the play offs than we've been in yonks
You'll struggle to mark anyone above a 5 for today's showing. It was poor from management and players alike. We needed to be bold in both team selection and tactics but were neither. We needed to be braver on the ball and at least match Hull in fight and endeavour, which we didn't. Deserved nothing
Do you think the EFL should be embarrassed that their referees can’t even get the amount of added time correct? Leeds should have been 3 minutes and with Hull the 6 minutes was a joke, the double which became a triple substitution took nearly 5 minutes without all the other time wasting!
The team just looked tired today, that game at Leeds…losing in the last minute after a huge effort must have taken it out of them physically & mentally
Too many 5/10s today. How much worry is there about fatigue? Rigg and Jobe are two examples of players who in recent weeks haven’t looked quite at 100%. Do you think they’ll look to cede the automatics and focus on the playoffs? I’m worried about a drop in momentum undoing us against teams with it.

Does Rigg need a couple of games rest?
We need to start planning for the Playoffs, obviously
What is the best way to ensure we get there ready to fight our way to the Final?

Rigg, Jobe, Cirkin to name just three look shattered.
Surely now the likes of Aleksic, Browne, Poveda should be given minutes.
