That’s four very poor performances on the run three against teams we should be beating easily.
At this rate against Hull on Saturday I’m not expecting a win and the losing run could extend to the usual six in the bad old days.
It’s as if someone has thrown a switch and suddenly we look slow and unable to trouble the opposition goalkeeper.
Curious that it has coincided with Chair coming back. Is he slowing us down and not providing defensive cover.
I feel we should have gambled in the window and gone for a pacy forward.
Gray, Austin and Dykes offer little pace and unlike teams who attack us we are unable to hit teams on the break.
Saturday is now a crucial game with teams below us on good runs.

Yes Essex. Very disturbing comment there.

Out of the blue we seem to have imploded. We must stop the rot soon.

....At this rate against Hull on Saturday I’m not expecting a win.....

You were certainly right there.
Fortunately, other teams didn't do too well, and we maintain our play-offs place.
