Thought Stoke were good to watch to be fair.

Our options from the bench are pathetic! And that is with Diaby, Browne at rwb, McCann and Maguire in the starting line up. Shambles

Any relation to John?
well you reap what you sow, i said last week that two wins were papering over the cracks, in my view the whole club is rotten, out played, out thought, out coached on the training ground, least the players havnt downed tools
Feel so sorry for those fans that have bought season tickets for first time in years to be served up this dross at home.
Really thought we could have gained some momentum as a club this year.

Great watch. Fit, energetic and completely out-fought us. Josh Laurent is a classy act
I almost made the same decision but foolishly went on.Didn’t look fit not once did a Pne player attempt to go past a Stoke player.At the end of the day we have a group of players who are not good enough for the championship.By the way you made the right decision.

Was completely pissed off after the WBA match and said it was utter shite. People had a pop at me because we won 1-0.
Make no mistake the signs were there in that game.

I thought Stoke were good too. They were better than us from minute 1 to the end, all over the pitch. Imo, our budget over the course of a season doesn't give us a chance to reach the Premier League. I read that promotion to the Prem is worth at least £170m over 3 years & worth £300m if a club survives the first season. Our owners give us £10-12m (roughly £1m per month) to reach our Utopia. That's like backing a 16/1 shot (£10m to £170m in a 24 handicap horse race.

Me to but I believe it as well this summer got my 1st ever season ticket shite 🙄
OP title is correct.
PATHETIC

Just a wishful thought, but maybe CH knew he was selling the club this coming summer so he decided to have this season ticket campaign to squeeze a last couple pence out of us. Explains the absolutel minimal recruitment to stay afloat in championship before fucking off.

Today was a bad day. As everyone knows we don’t have the squad to compete, first 11 possibly can compete on their day but with it being a congested World Cup year to have your options up front being ched and Woodbury off the bench and giving a debut to a young lad is pathetic.
For me RL is doing a good job with what he has. He cant play free flowing football as we don’t have the quality, all he can do is drill them and set them up well which has worked when the first 11 play but not when squad players start.
Bambo is an absolutely shocking defender, I know he has his fans on here but if you know anything about positioning and managing a threat he is terrible (not to mention the daft things he does).
Twice today maguire went down under pressure in reasonably good positions and Stoke broke away to have a good chance. He is not good enough.
Riis is predictable with back to goal always turns to his right, they worked that out early on.
Midfield never go for the second ball (maybe because they are drilled to be in position rather than go for the ball and potentially be caught out)
I am genuinely beginning to think that at the moment our best option is to play long ball football and put Bambo and Riis up front, Brady and Alvarado can cross a ball from deep so why not. Rather see goals than this dross and no one would expect a return to the 1980’s
