Played it off the Ruffels a couple of times when attacking down the wing, and Ruffels was nowhere near. No-one in the team is in the same class. Knockaert is literally too much of a quick thinker for our lot. Twice today his body language when Ruffles let him down in link up play was 'who is this shit bag'. The others need to get up to his levels. True. No wonder he took him off. He was showing them up.

seems Cardiff fans are unhappy as well as us. Yet they aren’t even in the bottom 3!

Last matchday thread I’m starting (again).
Bloody jinx…
I think it’s fair to say that we’re deep in the shite, anything less than 4 points from the next 2 games and we’re toast…
I’m not sure that ‘after the Lord Mayor’s show’ comes close.

We haven't even got the comedy Fotheringham press conference to cheer us all up.

Let be honest we deserve it! We've negatively all season. Go down, get shut of the dead wood, total clear out of the board and back room stuff,, new manager, new owner and we build from a fresh as this club is rotten. That won't happen. My prediction is we will rot in mid table for a few years, maybe drop down to the 4th. We might not be back at this level in my lifetime. Its depressing. Behave

If only we had the new manager bounce that Blackpool have had. 3 games, 2 at home against relegation threatened sides and achieved a massive 2 points. It simply isn’t over yet, yea we are in a relegation battle but nowhere near doomed. And 4 of our last 5 league games have been away from home. For what it’s worth I think Blackpool, Cardiff and either Rotherham/Wigan will go down. Will come back to haunt me - perhaps.

Said back in November this season had a whiff of relegation about it, there’s now a stench of it. Starting to think there’s no way back now and we’re not even halfway into February.

In the 2nd half Wigan were just more keen and up for it. It all went wrong when Knockaert went off and the useless Mahoney appeared. That was a disgraceful decision. Camara should have been taken off, he looked casual and not interested - Kasuma should have come on. Waghorn, Kamberi and Mahoney a complete waste of money. Don't understand why Rudoni is given grief, at least he puts in the effort - he's going to be a good player if he's in his best position. I heard Bromby talking on Radio Leeds about the strategy of the Club - but its not working.

this run the last 4 games is reminding me of November-December in the second prem season. 2 relegation rivals, 2 teams who can't buy a win, and we come away with it still in the relegation zone

He has played in every midfield position this season, and every attacking position apart from CF, I have seen nothing to suggest there is a player in there.

I am a optimist and try to find postives but Idont see 1 point from safety with 16 games left as no way back!

I think Mahoney was brought on as the best option to try and protect Ruffles who is totally incapable at this level. Knockaert was knackered and Koroma looked like he'd never play for the club again until last week. Tactically I can see why he did it but it 100% didn't work because my nan is a better footballer than Mahoney

We are truly pathetic. 1 point from 12 against Wigan and Blackpool. We deserve to go down.

Another poor interview by Ogden on BBC radio Leeds. I am not advocating gotcha questions but he failed to ask any questions about the personnel changes or substitutions and what was the thinking. Also Pelach says we lost control in second half.. no probing on why that was the case. Link here: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0f2l22r

Anybody that doesn’t want Warnock now is deluded. He would struggle getting a shift out of these lot. You can change the Manager but it's the same old, same old on the pitch. We have nothing in central midfield and nothing up top to feed off. We don't have a left back at the club how ridiculous is that. Bring back Jacko, great escape2! At least he has the years of experience to call upon, if he can get a tune out of taarabt he can get a tune out of this lot! But yes our squad is a shambles.

When are we going to learn that sitting deep and trying to protect a result does not work?
We do it week after week and rarely get a result.
We all know our players lack quality, but we have nothing to lose now. We might as well go for it in games (in a reasonably controlled manner) because the defensive tactics don't bloody work. The results, and the amount of late goals show that.
If we are to go down, at least go down fighting and having a go. This slow death by turgid, defensive football is horrendous.

To take Knockhart off was mind boggling to say the least, before our last three games i thought we are going to struggle to stay up, now i know we are going down no doubt about it cant kid ourselves anymore.

You’re right it’s not no way back but the issue is this run of games as where you’d look and say win these against sides around us and will pull ourselves out we haven’t and the run in we’ve got is pretty brutal.

From The BBC
The defeat continued managerless Huddersfield's poor run. Having sacked Mark Fotheringham on Wednesday after 21 games in charge, the Terriers are second bottom - only kept off the foot of the table by goal difference - and now winless in six games.
The hosts lacked punch up front, with their only effort on target being Whatmough's winner.
Wigans manager made a comment and none from any of our management.

Difficult to watch today. It was shite from the first minute. 2 teams who look destined for relegation. Will take a miracle to stay up as I really don’t see this team putting together a few wins on the bounce. Until we learn that sitting deep is going to cost us a place in this division each game will just get tougher and tougher. There are zero positives to take from that game. Knockaert is wasted in this team and when Hungbo does what he does there’s no one to take advantage. No matter who the manager is, it needs to be planned for the next 2-3 years as I think it needs a real revamp of our club, manager, players, identity. The whole club from top to bottom needs a facelift and if that starts in League One then so be it.

Is there any street parking around the ground? Seem to remember last time it taking me ages to get out of the on site parking ant recommendations? I'll be getting there quite late so nowhere that will be full by say 2.20. Last time I went was when Grant got the equaliser, I'm hoping I recognise bits as I get near, cos I was in a little car park nearby. I think I walked on the road, turned right and went through the official car parks and the Town end was at the far end of the ground. Ended up parking at the ground as i was running late..... Third time I've made that mistake, just got home.

What the fuck were we protecting? We had to win. I was making a general point about protecting results. Not just today. Perhaps we were protecting the draw? Maybe they wanted, above all else, not to lose and if we nicked a win it was a bonus? My point still stands: if we are to go down, let's go down having a bit of a go, not meekly surrendering whilst trying to sneek the wins we need.

Positives.
We looked more organised. Round pegs in round holes.
Negatives
Result Any attacking intent More backwards passing Players that already looked clueless what to do in possession looked even more clueless. Camara looked like a fish out of water only for hogg to out do him Team selection Substitutions A lack of pace and speed of decisions.
We look doomed, fozza may well have kept us up, I just can't see it now, but in truth Wigan were dreadful as well.
