Hector was the best

I don’t even know where to begin….so I’m not going to bother.
Fed up. Night all.

Atrocious.
There is no other word for it.

Shame they ain’t good footballers.

No sugar coating this. We look lost . No cohesion . 
PW must be seriously worried . Early days, yes, but the ‘team’ is just not a team.
 

Thompson’s moved more in 10 mins than Smith and Hourihane combined in 75 mins

Completely agree. It’s diabolical. He’s got to go 

I wanted to give Warne 10-15 games before I made a judgment call, but this is really just a horrendous performance. Can't see any upside to playing this way.

A shambles 

His time is running out now. This is the worst football I have seen in a long time. 

Can’t defend this.
Slow, error-strewn. Embarrassing. Truly, truly horrendous. 

Passing is so awful. Very concerning now. 

This has to be in the top ten recent worst performances I’ve seen at pride park 

Kept my council on this for long enough - the players are fine. The problem is Warne - he is not putting them in a position or system to succeed. It's patently obvious tonight the players aren't playing for him & dont believe in what he is asking them to do. No shots on target & no pressure built up.
Really wanted him to succeed but we've seen tonight he is woefully out of his depth against a manger with more progressive tactical nous. Doesn't matter who we sign - even if we brought in 4 or 5 more players it wouldn't make any difference.
Warne has to go now - this is on a par with the worst Pearson served up. Since January he has taken the team backwards & this is a squad of his players. If I were Clowes watching tonight I'd pull the trigger - I don't care who replaces him, he's clearly lost the dressing room & time to move on...

Wilson telling the crowd to make some noise. Give us something to shout for.

All 3 games at home we’ve been played off the park and every game our first halves have been terrible. 

maybe most successful teams play 4 at the back for a reason

I can do with players making mistakes it happens. What concerns me is the type of footie we are playing. We have some technically gifted players in this squad, yet we proceed to hoof it and constantly lose possession. Only one man is responsible, the individual coaching them to play this way. He may be a so called L1 specialist, but I don't want to watch, nor do I enjoy watching this football. It's god awful.

Irony being that we believed the defence was sorted and possibly the best in the division. Expecting lots of 1-0s.
Yet, on the evidence thus far it’s a bloody shambles and joke.

Just not been good enough
sums up our first half that
simply not good enough
passing not good enough, intensity not good enough, composure not good enough, communication not good enough. 
 
Absolutely crap so far 
need a rocket up their arses 

These mistakes are just a joke now.
Calamity Rams.

Really like Matt Hamshaw due to his interviews. Seem to have a lot of knowledge and answers very good in my opinion. Don't have anything to back it up but I think he is/will be very important for our near future.   

Liked Cosgrove every time I’ve seen him. Would certainly get on the end of some of the crosses. Feel that if all those sides are after him however, we’ll lose out (again)

Despite the result, the balance still isn't quite right. Smith touched the ball once in the second half, which is why he deserves to be dropped. He would have had more touches if he lay down in the centre circle for 45 minutes.

A better performance albeit against a poor side, but we definitely have something to build on now.
Two home games within a week coming up, 6 points would be lovely, no more silly mistakes at home please.

Ok I have been out all day - what went wrong?
