We definitely need another CB. If Anderson and John are out for any length of time that leaves us with Williams and Blythe. Now Blythe has Covid so we're having to put a fullback in defence. We can't be doing that in the league so hopefully Wellens is looking in the next 3 days.
Does anyone think we would have lost 6-0 with Rob Jones in the defence? (or Richie in midfield for that matter)

I'm absolutely convinced that it was being used as a training game by us, the last thing we needed was more injuries.
Disaster…really? Why do you think that, are you that shallow that you think the actual result was what was being looked at, and only the result?
I didn’t think Rowe put a foot wrong last night, played a great ball through to hiwula and whenever he picked the ball up he wanted to drive us forward, never did anything wrong defensively either. Yes he probs would’ve made our midfield better last night but we’ve got Galbraith to go back in there probably alongside Close and Bostock and he doesn’t get in the front 3 ahead of the likes of Hiwula, Vilca and Taylor. Personally I think he’s a good addition at LB.

Unless we were training on how to get beat it can't be called a success can it. Want a friendly for fitness book it behind closed doors. If fans are paying to watch a competitive fixture then give it respect or as Bezza said let everyone know so they can stay at home.

Personally I think he’s a good addition at LB. I suggest you watch the highlights, the first goal you could probably excuse, but he has no awareness of the interception and leaves himself well out of position, stupid pass by Seaman by the way, second goal guilty of ball watching rather than tracking the runner, sixth goal beaten at the front post by a header from behind him, he is no left back
We certainly need a physical midfielder who can not only break up play but a few ankles along the way….
Just seen the highlights and we did look disjointed - although given our injury list it is perhaps not surprising. I also don't think we are particularly getting the rub of the green either - and that compounds the issue and is reflected in the result. I think we will have more pain to come until we can get some of our players back into the fold. I am not without hope that we can turn this around and I'm hopeful that with a fully fit squad we can start picking up results.... I am also not going to chuck the towel in with over 40 games of the season still to play.

The first goal his not his fault at all, poor pass by seaman, not Rowes fault it didn’t make it to him and was never going to keep up with the winger when he’s going the opposite way to start with. The 2nd goal, ladapo was hortons man, ran inbetween Horton and Rowe but was hortons man and Ladapo beat him and then beat Jones to the ball. For the corner, height difference didn’t help but no matter where he was playing he would’ve lost the header, nothing to do with his position.
