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
That’s a massive oversimplification but I wouldn’t expect anything else.
It's my view.

I think we need more players to help us stay up.
The current team is shot to pieces

As said before, we already had Wood and Mitchell on the bench. How many sub defenders do you want?
It's more the point that the manager would rather play a CB at RB than the poor quality NL player signed in the window to play there

That's the fught now.
Sadly, can’t see beyond this.

The first half was ok, we were marginally on top. Salford we’re bang average. That Asante was the only player who’s any good.

But as soon as they score, effectively against the run of play, all confidence went and we fell apart, on the pitch and off it.

Its pretty desperate at the moment, Chris. KJ has to go now otherwise this will definitely continue.

Thompson has also played right back previously in his career so it's not like it's an outrageous decision.

Suppose that decusion was Ling's fault too, right?

When a teams head is gone, it's incredibly difficult for a manager to turn that around. After starting so well, it's baffling the extent to which we've fallen apart (our last win was to thrash the divisions then form team), but we look like a team on course for relegation. Shame, as on paper Jackett was probably the best appointment we've made since I've been a fan.

I’m not sure what your gripes are here?

Reilly only sat on the bench in the week because we were short. His time will come if he ever gets fully fit.

Thompson playing at RB over Moss makes perfect sense right now.

Signing a NL youth player, yes that's exactly the kind of thing we've come to expect, along with injured players his other favourite tactic. Jackett's tactics second half were bizarre but you look at what he has to work with and none of it really becomes surprising.

Dress it up with Travis' PR how you like, that January window was a mess and along with the tiny squad that him and Ling gambled on (thinking they'd get the wage cap brought in) set the side up for failure.

Squad was paper thin, we signed crocks. We've been unlucky with injuries and we have a manager who persists on playing people out of position. It's a perfect storm.

Ok, we’re in agreement that the recruitment is a mess.

The only problem is, who the heck do you blame for that? There’s a committee in place to agree on players. I’m pretty sure that Kenny is on it, so he’s partly to blame, but not entirely.

We also only have a finite budget. The better we negotiate with players and their scumbag agents, the more/better players we are able to sign. From what I understand, that’s the DOFs responsibility. Doesn’t anyone really trust Lingy to carry this out effectively?

Jackett may be on the committee and it’s possible he is outvoted on appointments!
