For me we normally play to the level of the opposition.   We didn't really play any worse than Barnsley or any better than Shrewsbury or Burton.   Most games that we win or lose the beaten manager could probably claim with some justification it could have been a draw.   We win more than we lose but maybe because we have more individuals that can produce moments of quality. 
Today I don't think anyone could argue we weren't worth the 3 points - it wasn't particularly flowing football but on the balance of chances created/conceded we were a distance ahead.

No doubt he'll be out first quiet first half he has.

Strong words about statistically one of the best coaches in Europe...

Rosenior's record wasn't very poor - he had us in the same place Warne finished only without the benefit of  McGoldrick 90% of the time.    He's showing at Hull that we should have kept him.

Warne was a fitness coach, yet he can't keep players fit. Worrying. Yes their age will be a factor, but so will his training methods. Is he over training?
I'm sure many of you will remember Paul McGrath? Yes he was an extreme case in a different era, but he maintained a basic level of fitness, sometimes not training from one week to the next, yet he turned out week after week and did a good job.
I suspect Warne would be best placed to go gently with the older players, once they are "fit enough". Then he may just keep them fit and energetic for longer - NML included.

His substitutions seem to me like a lucky dip. 
He clearly hasn’t got a clue. And that leaves us with a team who don’t know what they’re doing either. 

Dire yet again. 
Get Warne gone and bring someone in to look at getting us promoted next year, playing actual football in the process.
Hilariously depressing to hear Washington is potentially out until the end of the season with a knee issue. An issue he’d had operated on in the summer, and we still chose to sign him knowing our budgets were limited. 
Who in their right mind would sign a 31 year old striker who has just had a knee op. I’m not sure what’s more amateur, Warnes tactics or his transfer decisions. 

Sacking Rosenior is looking more ridiculous as days go by isn’t it 😢

If you don't renew you'll probably find within a season or two you hardly go.   Match tickets for decent games are expensive and you end up sitting away from whoever you normally go with - and you just find different things to do on a Saturday.

Not against removing citizenship of people who came here and commit serious crimes - for example some of those convicted of grooming - but in Begum's case she was born here, she wasn't a Bangladeshi citizen just had the right to claim it and was under 18.   Any one of those factors for me means she should face any justice here in the uk. 
Just on principle I don't think the justice system should make an example of individuals and undoubtedly that is happening here.

Liked the way Warne came over to clap the fans pre match.   Thought that was a small positive from the day - nobody can guarantee a win or even a performance but little things can help create a bit of a common spirit.

Bit if a thread resurrection but this 3 part series recently was good.   Apart from the focus on the miners strike I think it younger viewers might be struck by how politics has changed in 40 years.

1Wildsmith. 5.5.  Distribution poor - haven't watched the highlights so giving him the benefit that he wasn't at fault for their second 
35Nelson. 6.5
5Bradley. 7 defended well and looked a threat at set pieces
6Cashin 5.5. As he himself said could maybe have done better for their second
2Wilson 6.5 For me he's not a wing back but when he gets to attack he looks threatening 
4Hourihane. 5.  There were several times he could have turned on the ball and played too safe.  
7Barkhuizen. 5.  Might be being harsh just didn't notice him doing anything. 
32Adams. 6. Solid
12Smith.  6. 
20Elder. 5.5. Did ok but if he's a wing back need more threat
24Nyambe. 6
8Bird 🐦  5. Didn't offer much 
17Sibley. 5.5. Showed willing. Put in a few tackles.   No real threat. 
25Gayle. 6 
11Méndez-Laing. 5.5. Played out of position again 
Coaching staff 3 A real mess of a formation and changes were reactive and poor.  Was crying out to go to a back 4
