Murthy contributes nothing in midfield

McCarten not ready/good enough

2nd half we just completely lost our shape and discipline

We looked very disorganised at set pieces.

Rant over. On he lash
Agree with everything there.

Objectively speaking you can't account for the first goal as it's a fluke - an open net after coming back off the crossbar. But a result of sitting too deep. The second is conceded at a set piece because the back four - however experienced - have never played together.

So disappointed with our performance after the sending off though. Seething in fact.

Naismith was a passenger today when it should've been his opportunity to impress. No positional sense or discipline; a waste. As much as I love Peter Murphy he was completely ineffective today. McCartan rushed and hurried but Hatfield's quality would've been better alongside the magnificent Odejayi.

Ultimately though - I'm so sad that we failed to penetrate an average side with over 45 mins to play. If the manager can't motivate the players enough to want it we might as well give up now.

Sack the bad suits and faux professionalism. Get real. If you want to stay in the league, act like it.
