Yes , since the first goal went in all our confidence has drained away . Make no mistake we’re now in a relegation battle

7 wins all season is not good enough

I am really starting to worry if we can stay up. Free fall!

Glad the 4 or us with season tickets didn’t bother today

Do we really now have Khan playing RB and Kyprianou out on the right as commentary suggests? That's a sackable offence on its own 😳

Sadly our strikers can't buy a goal and if you miss your limited chances the opposition are going to take theirs.

We're in a death spiral with Jackett. Only thing keeping him in the job is his CV, any other manager would've been sacked by now.

Yep.

Difficult to justify that decision.

We are now 3 points away,as things stand , from 22nd.
This is just dire. Too easy & inaccurate to blame injuries.

Honestly seen enough, this will be 4 or 5 after 90mins!
I’m off that’s me done for the season, I cannot put myself through this every week and watch a team who do not have a clue managed by a manager who is completely clueless!!
I refuse to attend anymore matches until KJ is removed.

We looked completely gone as soon as that innocuous first goal went in.

Already getting riled up by Smith not even bothering to jump for headers any more.

Drinan is a big part of our problems
In the last five games, he's had enough good chances to have won the games for us, but he's missed every one.
He really is hopeless.
We look like never scoring again

Archibald now right wing, Hector playing left wing, to absolutely make sure we don’t put any crosses in.

I love and will never stop loving our club, but I honestly f*#*ing, hate what KJ has turned us into, he is destroying us.

That’s a massive oversimplification but I wouldn’t expect anything else.

The bench today has been a bit of an eye opener

Moss the January RB signing not even in the squad, play a CB and end up with the new wide man there instead
Reilly finally fit, not in the squad and then brings on Kyprianou at 0-1 when he's been useless for weeks

As for Drinan I guess they've been hoping he gets the goal for his confidence to return but he's getting further away the more chances he gets. With Sotiriou also regressing back towards youth football we look devoid of options up there.

I’ll be shocked and dismayed if he’s not gone by the morning.

Drinan is a difficult one. Make those mistakes at centre back and you would be dropped. Make them up front and your applauded for your work rate.
