CC interview 7 mins of waffle. I would have thought they would have stayed overnight not gone down on the day. Still no excuse. Did they fly down or by bus ?

You mean like repeating how we did last season? No, last season has no meaning. Are you unhappy with 4-1-4? I’m delighted we’ve won 4 as we’ve been poor in most games - and results better than performances deserve We’ve deserved 2 wins. We didn’t deserve to win at Sheff Utd or vs Preston. We also deserved a point at Stoke not to lose. It’s a results business, better results exceed performances but concern is that luck will even out Last season is relevant. We must do better than last season. Too many put the drop off last season as something which just happened post Christmas. It started much earlier in November when Carlos lost faith in the team away from home after a good start, he changed / tinkered with ridiculous formations and selections (eg Hogg at cb). Home results papered over the mess away. It’s relevant as he’a already started doing exactly the same Saturday - Reverting to negative, over thinking type - who would have played 5 at the back and a holding midfielder, drop Koroma against a possession team who have won 1 all season, none at home, scored 7 in 8, 1 at home and can’t defend high balls or pace. Carlos! Hopefully a one off Reaction needed Tuesday. 2 games coming up we can points from

Does anyone know why we need 2 players to take corners? This strange tactic robs us of a body in the box. The corners yesterday sum up Carlos, over thinking , over complicated and didn't work. From my recollection we've scored a few from corners this season with Sorba plonking it on Pearson/Sarr/Lees head so why change this??! Corberan never builds on what has worked well from the previous game. A good coach would develop our strengths not change the tactics for the opposition everytime.

According to Radio Beeston, set off from Huddersfield at 12noon, evidently it was a very difficult journey, they arrived at 8.30pm, should have arrived at 6pm. It's a very tough drive, used to do that trip, every month, as my employer was based in Ammanford! Sounded like Carlos was using the long journey as an excuse! Next season, if we're in the Championship we should set off at 10am, as road travel, can be challenging! Probably no more challenging than being a Town fan, during the last 3 seasons - UTT.

As a team we are crying out for a traditional centre forward and we have been for many a year. Until the leaders in the club accept this we will continue to struggle against relegation. What a difference Grant Hold made when he arrive all those years ago. I fear it is something connected to Hoyle why we don't embrace such an important position in the English game. Ever since Hoyle was involved we have moved away from signing such a striker. We did have small windows of hope but these soon turned to ashes with injuries etc. The bottom line is: get a striker balance the team! We are not Spain circa 2008-2012. I don't really understand this. We had Karlan Grant two seasons ago finishing as one of the top scorers in the division. Nahki, before him, was consistent enough, if a little disappointing given the expectation. We had two 'traditional centre forwards' in the Prem but neither did much of note. We are without a doubt lacking a goalscorer this year, but we haven't done too badly over the last decade.
