I am working my imagination really hard as no-one in the match thread or on here has actually described what happened. Appreciate everyone is really angry and disappointed as am I.Croydon said:Imagine having a free kick at the death and not going for it, then they go and show what can happen when you stick it in the box.
That is all on Bowyer, tactics wrong from start to finish. Fuck off.
Could someone perhaps start with who decided to play our attacking freekick(?) Into a corner, and what happened next? Apologies for having to ask...0 -
Another goal in the final match, Wigan now lead 3-0
Disgraceful, they should have been time wasting

We were not throwing bodies and blocks in the way. Phillips had to make saves and their finishing was dire. And they were a shit, shit team with little creativity. Lockyer and Oshilaja kept fluffing it back to them, especially Lockyer, who looks like he could do with a couple of games off to be frank5

W L W L W L so Saturday we are due a win?1

Rampant? Last 10 games they have 8 points. We have 11 points from 10 games.robroy said:
This with bells on. Going on Saturday and we have to contend with a rampant Huddersfield without Lockyer and possibly SarrSouthendaddick said:Not one to usually have a pop at the manager but that was coming and the amount of last minute goals we let in is ridiculous, must be the most in the football league by a distance

Taylor created our one chance all by himself, from 25 yards. Phillips and maybe Deji are the only ones to take any credit defensively today. They missed 3 or 4 massive chances because of a mixture of being shite and Dillon good.ForeverAddickted said:
Apart from Taylor hitting the bar and a last ditch tackle from Lees?cafcsinger said:
Utter drivel. If Wednesday could finish they would have beaten us 3 or 4 nil comfortably. We on the other hand never looked like scoring once.ForeverAddickted said:Disappointing
Up until that Pearce slip it was a great defensive display not just from Phillips but the whole of the back five (Matthews | Pearce | Lockyer | Oshilaja)
Dunno what went wrong tonight, we started on the front foot but the referee's constantly poor decisions gave Wednesday a chance to take the game which they duly did
Of course we had plenty of time to regroup and subs could have been better
We move on to the next
And Wednesday couldnt finish could they, not just because they didnt get their efforts on target but because of bodies in the way!!

Awful. Forget about it, move on to Huddersfield. 3 big points up for grabs. Just like after Stoke & Blackburn we can bounce back1

I've already said it was disappointing and we could have done better?ValleyGary said:
I admire your positivity but come on. They had 3 free headers from crosses/set pieces, Wickham dragged one wide when it was easier to hit the target. Phillips pulled off a couple of worldies, but even the Fletcher one he should of scored.ForeverAddickted said:

Why are we allowing 25 attempts on our goal in the first place!!? Wednesday are not exactly known for their free flowing football. Against a better finishing side that would of been a real spanking.
All I want is a bit of perspective, no way was that performance anywhere near as bad as Middlesbrough | Derby | Stoke!!... Yet the result is being completely blown out of prepaution!!
Defensively we were bloody sound up until that last goal
Wednesday too are a bloody huge team of players (always tend to be) so will win a lot of headers
Its why I knew we werent going to threaten whenever a long ball went near their box1 -
Playing dogshit negative football vs a team that hasn't scored at home in 4, we got what we deserved and by Saturday 5pm we'll probably be in the relegation zone.2

I don't think we're relying on luck.Laddick01 said:
Depends how you define unlucky. Is it a fluke that some of those players got injured? Probably.Dazzler21 said:
We've also been so "unlucky" this season. We didn't win for what 16 games or whatever it was because of having 15 Match day squad players injured.Laddick01 said:As much as the xG stat is dismissed on here we have been so lucky this season.Between Philips, Taylor and sheer luck we’ve stumbled to 39 points. I think we are a poor side with a smattering of quality and would be over the moon with anything other than relegation.
is it unlucky that we’ve had a small squad with a severe lack of experience of quality? No
We’re still feeling the effects of RD’s ownership, but Southall had to do more (especially defensively) in this window. We really are relying on luck to survive.
I think Bowyer has told the players that for every other game we go for the draw, if we lose, so be it, but we aim to win and plan to win against every other side.0 -
They took it quickly as we'd played 4 minutes, someone won a header easily, Pearce slipped over so they won the second header, then Davis let Fletcher in front of him to nod home. It was a goal where one team wants it and one doesn'tswords_alive said:

“Lucky enough to clasp promotion”?? Weren’t we the form team in the league going in to play offs?sammy391 said:
Whilst I agree it’s not what we necessarily need NOW- we need it in general!AFKABartram said:
Everyone’s peed off with another sickener defeat but I wish people would stop trying to escalate this nonsense. Imploding with 11 games to go is the last thing we need.Derek1952 said:I can only go by what you are saying on here,but is it time to change the management before its too lateCan you really see us getting promoted again under bowyer if the worst does happen!?
was lucky enough to clasp promotion last season, won’t be again!0 -
Well, we've absolutely biffed that. The timing is very frustrating but we deserved nothing from that match from about 46 mins on so we can't really have any complaints. Set up with 5 at the back against a team who haven't scored in 2020 and we should have lost about 5-0. Kept Doughty on even though he was playing like he had a concussion, took Oztumer off without replacing him with an attack-minded alternative and let Bonne suffer on for far too long despite looking like he could have comfortably come off after 45 mins. I honestly have no idea what Bowyer was doing today, he's had an absolute shocker. We've got options on the bench now for when things aren't working but we've persisted with an absolute disasterpiece today.It always hurts more conceding right at the death but I'm much less concerned about the point dropped and more about the fact that we've played like utter chumps yet again, Bowyer hasn't reacted to it at all and every other prick around us has turned up. Today was a bit of a litmus test really; the relegation candidates playing teams who might have previously thought they were safe but are getting dragged into it off terrible form; Wigan and Barnsley beat the absolute moonpies around them but faced with the same kind of opposition we've managed to play the worst we have maybe all season against a team who were pretty much willing to lie down for us from the start.Start your worry engines.16

Give it up, man. It was a dire, dire performance, most reminiscent of Boro away, which we lost by the same scorelineForeverAddickted said:

On nights tonight and just going in.. Have been asleep since 6...woke up by a load of texts at 21.45...thought yep we've done it only to find again as usual... Saw the other results. We are spineless at times.0

Just to confirm I think this is a naive approach but that's been Bowyer's get out of jail free card in the past.Dazzler21 said:

I know one thing, the negative tactics served up tonight aren’t going going to get Taylor putting pen to paper for us in the summer.3

Never tried to win. An ultimately got what we deserved Fuck All. Wished they’d score early doors, we then might have had to play out, and could have gone on to win. LB that was wank and totally down to YOU.2

Reading mate says they were awful as well... Not that, that matters. Could be bottom 3 sat.0

Pleased to see I’m not the only one who absolutely hates our game management. That is at least four games in which we have conceded goals and lost points in the 95th minute or later. Just keep playing normally chaps and the game should end before the 94th minute!So frustrating. Fair play to those who make the trips to these midweek away games, I know we had some joy against Forest but the prospect of a three or four hour journey home in the freezing cold getting back at silly o clock after watching another pile of dog shit is not for me.3

So you can back up @CAFCSinger's claim that we didnt look like scoring when I've proven a couple of clear efforts?Leuth said:

Thats the point of discussion that I'm arguing - If people want to make outlandish claims on here then fair enough but back them up first
Am sure you'd be doing the same if Naby Sarr was getting slaughtered!!1 -
Loads of respect lost for him tonight, fuck off15 -
Bowyer claiming we deserved something from the game, caused them problems and have been conned out of a point at the end.Alright, piss off Lee. I'm not talking to you til tomorrow.3

Hugely frustrating 2nd half that I saw when I got home. Was just waiting for them to break their hoodoo. Would have sacrificed Doughty, Oz and Pearce for Purrington, McGeady and Green after 60 mins. Bowyer has a lot to reflect upon ahead of Saturday. Hopefully we will have a right go at Huddersfield...1

Turgid is a compliment. Went with daughter and her Wednesday fan boyfriend. He was happy at the end, muted celebrations of course. Such a negative set up. Sickening to pay £30 to watch that. Playground football would be a step up on that served up tonight. Never tried to score really. Sad for Dillon as he made.some.good saves.
Bowyer set us up to get 0-0 and a lucky strike deserved to break the monotony. On to Huddersfield and hoping to get some points as it is getting very worrying with Barnsley and Wigan winning and Stoke drawing away.0 -
My bed is floating down the road as we speak.
Absolutely gutted. Imperative we get something on Saturday now given other results tonight.3
