Feel bad for Greg

Stubbers can't be blamed at all, he's just commentating on it.

I do think it's worth remembering all the players we have injured at the moment. Hopeful Billy and Kelman might be back for Wednesday. Maybe too soon for them, we'll see. But we're probably missing five starters at the moment. So if there is one silver lining, it's that we won't be stuck with the team out there today all season.

I'm gonna go back to bed. Bad start to a Saturday and it's only 530am.

Try not to get too down. This one is done. We have another one Wednesday to put things right. 10 points from five games is still promotion chasing form.

Keep the faith. COYR.

Also 4 shots on target for them, 4 nil up, you have to ask questions of Okonkwo when you see stats like that

Don’t be daft. One was a penalty, one a header six yards out and one a deflection virtually on the line.
Some of you properly fold in adversity.

My word, a referee gave Leaburn a freekick!

Now I know you’re not watching the game,just making things up.

Bindon is escaping a lot of criticism. He's given up. Watched him barely track back into the box a full two yards behind the striker. Nowhere near his man for their goal either.

There will be a red in this no doubt

With our luck it’ll be lloyd. You can tell he’s completely lost his head I hope he doesn’t do something silly.

Somebody should check we got the right Ouma and not his useless twin brother.

Harsh .. lot of players out there that could have the finger pointed at them today Bindon for the third and AO expected a GK who dominates his area .. Ouma been unlucky never a pen and his pass out hit Grant and rebounded to their player .. that’s just unlucky

As long as we learn and stop wrapping them in cotton wall and making stupid numbers of changes again.

Momentum is everything in this league and this has just flat out not worked.

We cocked up team selection all ends up. Never again please 

The other end of that deal is you can’t moan when a player gets injured because they’ve been overplayed which happened to Bell and Coventry last season

He wasn't even that good on Wednesday.

Terrible.

We done more in the first ten mins attacking wise than all game at WBA 
lame penalty and as lame a midfield as we’ve ever had 
Gutted but a reality check, we’re not as shit as this result but I’ll take 4th bottom now 

Bedsaddick

Leaving Coventry out was a massive mistake . They have players totally free on the edge of the box and Ouma looks like he’s never played defensive midfield in his life . 

Doc wouldn’t have let this happen.

Second goal looks worse on replay. Ouma under zero pressure and could have even taken a touch and brought it out. Instead smacks it at 100mph straight into a teammate. 

ProperCharlton

Risky team selection due to injuries and need to rest players but we started well enough, dodgy penalty changed the course of them game then feels like we just gave up.

Ouma is getting a lot of the blame but our entire midfield has been rubbish. Just hope we can get out of here without any further injuries or suspensions.

If his name was Kaminski he'd be getting pelters I'm sure. 

se9addick

That third goal, wtf going on with our defending?

Martinspringle

Ridiculous that the EFL can send you away on a Wednesday night and then away again for an early kickoff on a Saturday. You lot can blame Jones but professional athletes don’t suddenly recover after 57 hours. It’s a long season.

Definitely lacked some composure but a bit of bad luck too

Bobby Madley shags dogs

Never knew he drank at the Millers

Nathan Jones should probably stay away from the stadium next time we visit these lot.

Last year his goalkeeper had the biggest stinker of a bad season.

This year the ref changes the game by giving the softest penalty you’ll see all season and his team crumbles in front of him.

I've read some silly things on here before but this is up there 🤣

All those injuries had to take their toll eventually

Chill people, I had to, the opening was there.

We have kicked off four times.

Maybe JRC should have started in CM and Carey/Knibbs pressing in advanced midfield. Less risky perhaps but hindsight thinking. 

Sword65pf

Bad decision or not, away from home you should making sure it don’t go 2-0 quickly and compound the the bad start, we chose as a whole team to crumble, we gave ourselves an uphill challenge before the game started by ripping the heart of our side out and starting with strangers, this is on NJ today. Ouma, skipp and JRC starting was suicidal.
