Ralls is a quality championship midfielder and the best at the club by a long way

Man of the match should be an easy pick today, nobody deserves it.

I think that’s what the problem is. I don’t dislike him but I think hes just an average midfielder, I couldn’t imagine any top 10 championship clubs come in for him

Too painful to watch. Out played on our own patch. I wanted us to sign Lowe in the summer. An absolute steal at less than a million pounds.

No rotation in the squad has meant fatigue and injuries are starting to show.

Harris should came off half time ...... Harris's use of subs and timing leaves a lot to be desired

Fkn h@te the Jack b@stards.
6 fingered retards on crack.

Sadly Harris out thought by Cooper.
We need Benkovic in for Nelson, Bacuna back in midfield, a RB in January and a box to box midfielder.
Fk fk fk I'm going to go sit in a dark corner.
And the ref can f#ck off. Both sides should have 10 men. Cowardly sh#t bag.

Overpaid gutless bastards. Embarrassment to the shirt. Didn’t think they could be as bad as last season under Warnock but they’ve excelled themselves today.

Was rolls 5th foul in quik secession yellow card all day long


Agree and I have no complaints about that. The consistency though... Was their Bennett's third in first 20. Last one cynical. No yellow. If he hadn't been booked it was a yellow all day. How is that right?!

Bacuna at right back is better than Bennett at left back. How embarrassing

Bennett should got 2nd yellow but think what saved him was moore playing on if moore had stopped instead of shooting been a different outcome

We can't hold onto the ball as we have no skill whatsoever, particularly where we need it, in midfield. This has been the case for a few years but no one has addressed the problem.

I actually think he hasn't any tactical nounce, less than the average fan ! And this is his highly paid profession

There is no one superior system but when one is being imposed on you, you need to change. Pack for Harris was a must.

I don’t want to panic now as today has been awful. The 4-4-2 is only for certain games. Our two best attacking players are Wilson and OJO at the moment and the formation means they mainly just spend time defending. Harris running off keiffer had really worked for the last few games so get the idea for doing it again but does NOT work for all games it’s horses for courses. We were so far behind the jacks today it kills me. People slagging ralls off though he’s been brilliant this year and many other years, yes tackle was stupid but Wilson couldn’t get near the ball so he was lunging in a bit and we need to get him and OJO on and near the ball.

That's as ridiculous as excuse as it was the 19th minute. Neither should come in to it.

Anyone could see this game was over at 6 minutes.

The snipers berated me for saying it yet again I was right.

I've watched football many enough moons to see that we were in for it today after a couple of minutes.

This has been the worst performance in many years we have not had a meaningful effort on target. We have not played one phase of attacking football in the whole game.

Harris and Livermore need to be sacked. We had two decent wins against poor sides and were outplayed at Stoke but snatched a couple of goals we did not deserve on the basis of play. Watford was actually a good defensive performance but so what.

We are going nowhere under Harris and as for the players.

Mark Harris - will be a forgotten name soon enough. League two standard.
Nelson - Couldn't pass water.
Ralls - Terrible.
Vaulks - what does he actually offer? oh wait a long throw.

Harris has changed NOTHING since coming in. I thought the away performance at Swansea last year was bad - that was until I witnessed Harris' version today. Harris cannot even find a way to get the best out of Harris. He is a bog standard manager living the dream in the Cardiff hotseat because he is pi$$ poor.

For some reason Harris plays Wilson out wide then when we are chasing games he puts him in his best position in the centre ! Time for swap around benkovic in.... bacuna midfield ... Wilson central now we've lost his opportunity to do it
