If Sheaf was any more laid back he would be horizontal, he was very poor tonight and May looked like the Alfie May of last season rather than the new Alfie.Sheaf is steady away but I've seen nothing to suggest he's brilliant as some have portrayed and he has a lot to learn. May, Sheaf and Halliday all poor tonight, Ennis battled well and was so unlucky not to score. Whiteman was unusually average and Anderson and John didn't look as solid as we've come to accept.
So well organised, they’ve just been on a 3 match losing streak.We were totally found out tonight. Lack of quality in the final third cost us, massively. Ennis hasn’t got a prayer of making an impression when the 3 behind him are clueless.Trouble is, there was nothing on the bench, either! Lack of options are going to cost us - big style, this season.Lest we forget, we had bids in for 2 strikers that we couldn’t get across the line. Go figure.

We should have exploited the left more as James and Taylor showed some great link up play in the first half but we seemed to keep going down the right hand side.Both bens were good as you would expect. Halliday is terrible, new right back needed ASAP. Rubbish. Completely disagree. Seems as though some on here can’t live without a scapegoat. He played very well. Final ball not great but he did more than James tonight in offensive play. Wonder if we can compile a list of scapegoats for every season.

Soon as we get a defeat your off. Squad not good enough, no strikers, no quality in final third etc etc.We had a bad day at the office. It happens. Strange isn’t it we were world beaters on Saturday at Ipswich. Tonight we are not good enough. Bit of perspective needed again i think, instead of the usual knee jerk reaction.
Sadlier has to play either wide left and be given freedom to take his player on or come inside or of you are going to play him in the 10, you don't then tell him to mark the oppositions ball player (Spearing) as he was having to tonight, in the second half those two just cancelled each other out and we lost our most attacking threat.Agree with others on here, Sadlier was the only player prepared to get on the ball and take the game to Blackpool, at times he was taking up great positions in pockets of space, always moving around but we just don't find him, others should have come off before him tonight.Too many long hopeful wasted passes out from the back down the right flank tonight for me I am afraid.
We need a striker and a centre midfielder for back up who has quality. I dread to think if we were to lose Whiteman to injury for a few weeks.
The bench had coppinger, May, Gomes on it
That's true hound but then again they don't count for other teams either in the same situations and you cant argue with the facts that our percentage over the course of the season has been low..
