There’s no denying we are having zero good luck at the moment. You can say we don’t deserve it, and I’d say you’d have a point but:
Deji’s pen - not a bad decision by the ref, but I’ve a lot wouldn’t have given. When your lucks in it’s not given.
Stockley goal: wrongly given offside again. Third time in a month we’ve had a perfectly good goal disallowed. Would it have changed the game? Debatable as we’ve been pathetic but results can and do hinge on these moments.
Pratley sending off: what he did was barely worth a yellow. Idiotic to give the ref the option so Pratley has to accept responsibility but how can the ref even see what Pratley did from 30 to 40 yards away? You shouldn’t be sending players off on a guess.
Watson penalty: it was a clumsy leg dangle so again poor from Watson, but it’s not a foul. Plainly not a penalty.
4 big decisions that when you’re in a run of form go your way, when you’re in bad form they just don’t seem to.
If you're playing well and dominating teams, which we are not doing because we are shit, then you never find yourself in the types of situations where these decisions against you happen.
Stop trying to sugar coat it. That's the underlying issue here.
He has clearly mentioned that we are very poor. We have also been the better side in games we have lost. To suggest that two perfectly good disallowed goals in a week has to do with not dominating teams is born out of frustration, not clear thinking. However, I get why you feel the way you do.
I'm sorry but 20 mins on Tuesday and ZERO minutes today being the better side against BURTON AND BLACKPOOL works for you, you need your head tested.
LOL all you want - you need to watch a bit more football and see how this happens all the time when a manager has lost it.
As Scoham says, let us know how many of these players would've got in the 11/12 or 18/19 teams.
Yes confidence is shot and we shouldn't be THIS bad. A change is probably needed to clear the air more than trying to save our season or any nonsense like that because once again, the players aren't good enough for that.
This squad should be a solid 7th-12th placed group. No doubt that if this carries on we'll finish bottom half.
This is the reason why we are so shit, Bowyer is posting on Charltonlife instead of watching the game.

You want Bowyer to stay but are happy slagging the players off. See what happens when he goes, I promise you they will all look better.
The post you've quoted says that a change is needed ie bye bye Bowyer. I don't think we are disagreeing on that point any more. The question is how good are these players? I say not very much, you reckon they are top six quality. I suppose we'll never find out for certain.
I’m only keeping the stream on to play Bowyer post match Bingo...
Look forward to see what bullshit comes out of his mouth today. Hopefully he will say he is resigning. No doubt he will go to the dressing room and call every player a c&&t first though.

Luck has nothing to do with it today. We have been beyond woeful. Below barrel scraping.
I said as much in my post. We don’t deserve better luck but you can’t say it has nothing to do with it. If three of those decisions go the other way, which in my opinion 2 should have and one easily could have, it’d be 1-1.
We’d still be playing absolute shite, but absolute shite and getting a point. I’m not looking to make excuses for anything - any points we scrape at the moment are just papering over the huge cracks, but every win, every good run tends to come with a bit of luck in terms of certain decisions or the bounce of the ball going your way and I think it is true to say that very little that could go one of two ways is going the way we’d like it to at the moment.
I accidentally typed nothing into the Leave a Comment box at the bottom of the thread. I got a red message saying ‘Body is required’. So, I did the same thing ten more times as 11 bodies are required.
Gunter - not good enough (squad player) Famewo - good enough if fully fit Oshilaja - not good enough Purrington - not good enough Maatsen - immature, not ready
Jaiyesimi - too early to judge, needs to show something soon Pratley - not good enough Shinnie - not good enough Millar - good enough when on form, about as good as we could expect Watson - not enough Smith - too early to judge
Stockley - good enough Washington - not good enough (squad player) Aneke - good enough if fully fit
Only three players are good enough to start in a promotion winning team next season, and all three of them are in on loan.
But looking at the signings threads barely anyone was calling Gunter, Watson, Shinnie, Matthews etc "poor player's" the opposite in fact.
If he had an ounce of self respect he would do that. This reminds me of Pardews last game.
I'm not disagreeing with you but ive read this from various posters over the last 3-4 games. Yet the last 3-4 games have not been Bowyers last.
Surely he is in an untenable situation now though?. It just cant carry on. Played Burton and Blackpool at home. 5 conceded, 1 scored. We have had 1 shot in target today.....1.
75 mins gone ... I’ve done a virtual walkout. Can’t take much more of that. Dreading the rest of the season. Will we get sucked into the relegation battle? I hope not because we haven’t got any players with fight in them

Getting someone new in now gives them 14 games to see who they want to keep and plan for next season, assuming we have a permanent appointment in mind. Bringing in a caretaker achieves little.

If Bowyer goes before our next game we will find out soon enough.

Watson off, Brian Cole on...

P = Pratley
10 = players on the pitch
In the warm up.
Since 3pm he's made himself comfortable in his favourite armchair, reading the paper and watching YouTube.
