Fairly evident from 5 mins in that Crawley were more up for this.
Sick of watching Radulovic and Marshall isn't much better.

This lot aren’t playing for this manager based on this showing so far. They don't seem to play for any manager. Don't think Duff is the issue. Yeah he's made mistakes, like every other manager. This set of players are spineless as fuck. It needed an overhaul to move on, and we didn't get it. |

Bojan had a shot that literally ended up going backwards. Can’t believe he’s on the pitch at all. That was Marshall if you mean the low cross that was swung at and hit a standing leg. |

Why do we never ever ever sit on and around the opponents box like all ‘good’ teams do? I swear every game we play it’s 50/50 possession with everything being so rushed. Seriously can’t remember the last time we dominated a game and broken teams down - quite simple we don’t have the quality Peterborough first game of the season? Feels like a wet dream that never happened |

Starting to find it hilarious. Past caring. Surprised it’s taken that long, I was there probably 12 months ago under Moore. Same I just laugh at the amount of dribble coming out of our owner now instead. Will no doubt have a go at the fans for booing this underfunded shambles of a squad. |

How much more excrutiating can it get being a Town fan, this is an shockingly poor performance. I am amazed we still have an away following. I had us down to go straight up this year, even after a few pathetic performances. If we don't get 3 points today I'm afraid it shows we don't have what it takes this season. Will likely be a League 1 nearly men scenario again. |

Duff speaks in the media like he has a plan and a way to play, but watching the games I really can not see any sign of a plan or an idea, we are not even one dimensional.
Bojan should not be anywhere near starting for us, Spencer is not a RWB (Turton better or change formation), Lees doesn’t seem to care, Kane is a tidy player but he os not on the ball enough. Healy and JK must be fit enough to start now both been on bench last couple.
Change it second half and have it more like
Chapman
Turton pearson. Nige Spencer
Kasumu
Kane. Wiles
JK. Miller
Healy

It needed an overhaul to move on, and we didn't get it.Feels like our usual arrogance and naivety in thinking we could crack on without doing this. Everyone could see that we needed a TOTAL reset but we barely made a dent. I suppose it's easy to say from the outside though - ultimately if there are no takers then what can you do. |

Right squad of leaders and winners Cartwright has assembled.
We'll be lucky to keep him.

Have we signed the only soft as shite Serbian? Normally they can start a fight in an empty room, but Bojan doesn’t look like he has any fight in him

Absolutely awful. No urgency, no pace, no ideas. If we were a serious team at this level we’d be putting teams like this to bed in the first 30 mins. Absolutely no chance of promotion this year regardless what happens in the second half.

They look like they are trying to me, just have no quality and the tactics are shite. Off the ball we don’t work hard enough, we don’t press their back line, we don’t chase down, we are lethargic and we’ve no fight in us. We’ve conceded the first goal 8 times this season and lost all 8, that isn’t a coincidence. We do occasionally press. Radulovic has forced a couple of errors that lead to half chances and we have also won a corner or two. But there is no unified team press, the players are constantly checking if their teammates are in position and also pressing, before they set off. They should have confidence/know their teammates are right behind them. It's poorly coached. |

I was going to say there's nothing between these two teams, which considering what Town have spent is a bad enough assessment...but now I'm thinking Crawley shaded that first half... Town just seem to be going nowhere, no player is standing out, nobody looks head and shoulders above the rest...we look lost, aimless..directionless.... This is awful , there's actually no sign whatsoever that after Tamworth we've actually learnt anything,,that we look motivated. We are simply, shocking.

Crap manager + crap players =…..
How anybody thought we would do anything with these players and Duff is beyond me. It felt at the time we had just settled for Duff and it’s proving that way.
With regards the players maybe Andre didn’t talk complete bollocks.

It needed an overhaul to move on, and we didn't get it. Last time we were in thisbleague we had the likes of Peter Clarke, Lee Novak, Antony Kay who would run through a brick wall. We don't have anyone now, they are all soft as shit. |

Awful performance again.
Big 45 minutes coming up for Duff.
If we keep Bojan, Marshall and 5-3-2 then not sure how long I would keep Duff in situ.

Concerning if he can’t get a reaction after the debacle last week
He has a budget with which even with injuries he has to do better
Surely Koroma has to be on the pitch

This is the lowest I’ve felt about supporting Town for a long time. One of the lowest league positions in some 12 years. Crashed out of nearly every cup by Nov. Losing to a semi professional side without a whimper. Now we’re losing to Crawley Town who are absolutely dire and tipped by many to go down. Utter shambles!

People really don’t see it. In this 352 ‘system’ the wingbacks are the most important and critical players on the pitch, they should be constantly bolting up and down being the key pressers of their opposite fullbacks as well as splitting defences/midfield.
Tell me where Spencer or Miller has overlapped dangerously once today?
That’s where the system works, attacking fullbacks, CBs split across the attacking side for cover with the 6 sitting in as further cover. When have we seen that? Never

Watching the Town players warming up there’ll be no substitution at half time.
Edit: Koroma has gone into the dressing room.

I think when we have the ball we are even worse as we don’t create any chances. |

Absolutely awful. Given we've had a major wobble already I think it's time for Duff to go if we fail to win today. Miles off where we should be.

Surprisingly I don't give a toss we're losing and might actually turn over to watch another game. What stage of grief is that? I've definitely done the anger part
