I haven't been impressed with Bird and Hourihane, I would even argue they are the 2 we most need to replace and wouldn't miss them (controversial i know) 

Not been this angry at watching Derby since Stevenage 
Why are we always so mentally weak? 
 
Where was the passion? We didn't trouble  them at all, won’t have an easier win all season, 
Its like it was a Sunday league performance, no fight no effort just really struggle to see us getting anywhere near the top 2.
Think we are 2 midfielders short still and another striker 

Just feels like we just don't want it, very poor tonight, no doubt there will be loads moaning at Warne but didn't see anything like enough desire or quality on the pitch to tell me this bunch are good enough for play offs let alone top 2, how can it change so much?? Desperate for Nyambe to be back, Wilson a shadow of a player when playing fullback, Cashin has put his 3 worst performances in since Forsyth has been out and OMG how bad were Bird and especially Hourihane tonight!
God, it's so disappointing,  I was really expecting a reaction to Saturday's lacklustre performance especially with the opportunity to go top.... but that was worse

Right everyone... back to the finance thread.  That'll perk us up!  👀

Yep, get that midfield right and things will look a lot better. Pretty sure we need to revert to three in there away from home!

Gutted for the lad if it’s as serious as it looked . Gutted for us - we have just agreed to pay him till the end of the season . 

Plain & simple, Bird isnt good enough.
We need another centre midfielder for sure, maybe even 2. 

Said weeks ago we needed a holding midfielder, teams run straight through our midfield , bird & Houllane couldn't takle a balloon.  Rubbish at Lincoln and rubbish tonight. 

And why do we always bottle it when we get the chance to go top? 

Seemed obvious for 2 seasons , we struggle to control centre midfield, especially when the pressure is on 
My priority would be a better CM , but where do you find anything better for loan…
 

Feel for the 2000 fans who made the trip tonight, really do.
 

This is unacceptable. 

Just a thoroughly poor performance really. More points dropped, another good opportunity wasted. I will say yet again, the midfield balance is *still* not right. It's a massive issue. Our inability to control games just invites opponents on to us. 

Saw very little evidence of that tonight. Max Bird did some particularly cowardly putting the ball back to the passer rather than looking to turn and drive ....

Or ring the Samaritans 

I’d do the following:
•offer Bird to the highest bidder 
• pull out of the smith talks 
• put the money towards the midfield 
 

Our top 2 chances obliterated in 2 games.
Bottle jobs.
I wouldn't fancy us in the playoffs, we aren't good enough.

I’m furious this game has been available to view in the UK. Bring back the blackout. 

Elder again with a block to cut out a cross then 

The subs are to enable a change in formation, we all agree it wasn’t working before so at least he’s trying something different 🤷🏻‍♂️ 

The rot begins 
prediction 2 points from the next 10 games 

Least we can have a third crack at the EFL Trophy next season

No way am I watching this s*** all over again!  😁

We should get on the pitch and protest in solidarity with the Reading fans. They'll get a points deduction and the game can be replayed.

NML…. Is it the curse of a player getting a new contract and then switching off !?
