I have never wanted SE from day 1 - but what a pity that we have wasted 3 months to prove what a complete waste of time he has been.
This week saw us play 3 teams below us and what happened - one point ( very lucky) out of nine.
Today we played better than Tues but we still conceded our average 2 goals per game and will soon be bottom.
One bright note Jordan looked a class act - why didn't he start???

Eyre says that Jordan was good and will start in future! Why has he constantly persisted with the same poor defence especially Trotman? He said that that Lucas was ill and acknowledged Kean hasn't taken his chances. Surely lucas has to be the number one choice from now on. Completely puzzled why he took Darby off, he at least looked good on the wing.
Too early for Eyre to go yet, I just want him to learn and to get the players playing with some fight.
Why have they banned bringing chips in? Do they think that we wiil throw them at the opposing fans? The way we are playing I think that the opposition would be the last place that they would go!

Sad to see the optimism of the last few years slipping away. Does SE just pick names at random and hope they can work out what to do because he still doesn't seem to know the team he wants. Pity about Lucas's illness as Kean has shown he can't command his area and it's needed when the defence can't do the basics. Tutte is too lightweight for a battle in midfield. Have said it before, we need a genuine target man up because a long ball in the air to 2 small forwards doesn't work. The only pluses, Jordan immediately seemed to have a confidence about him and Jonah still has the drive after 500 games that others could try and copy.

Another shambolic display against poor opposition.....Stevvo said we would be unbeaten in October....eh? (He also said Aldershot were crap in the Carling Cup).......times up surely???

Many fans said last Saturday that we should wait till tonight and then review how we stood,.......here we are 2 appalling performances later and we are well worse off,7 days later.

Clueless.....and a team of clowns with no team spirit.

Do the honourable thing and go now Stevvo!

Agree with Lostboys, a splendid football, and I thought Mr Chaplow, in particular, was a very fine exponent of the game. The rest of the Saints team were pretty bleedin’ good as well!

*a splended game of football* even!

Think we all seem to agree, the general consensus that Eyre's days are numbered? Agree with most of the comments - Keane is no way our first choice keeper (Lucas is), Jordan looks class lets use his ability, Why was Darby brought off? the only decent player Eyre has brought in???
We can't dilly and dally any longer, we aren't looking over our shoulder any more we are well and truly in the shit with teams like MK Dons and Preston on the horizon.

First half we were headless chickens. Second half much better but Spurs were so much quicker, fitter than us and their passing was vastly superior to us.

Paddy in goal saved us from another 6 goal defeat.

Bothroyd scored but he still looks so lumbering and awkward. Mackie never stopped hassling and was full of energy.

Adel just proved agian he is either A) not good enough against premiership opposition or B) doesnt want to play for QPR . Either way we were a better team without him. Maybe we should play 3 up front next week without Adel again?

Worrying times ahead as another defeat stares us in the face next weekend. So we need to win at least 2 of the following 3 games - ideally draw at Stoke and beat Norwich and WBA - or we will be perilously close to the bottom.

A performance which was good both defensively and offensively with one exception, a glaring error by Darren O'Dea allowing the visitors their one real chance in the game. Darren O'Dea claims it was dizziness but this downright foolish error is something that can be expected of such a poor defender. With the exception of O'Brien, all of Leed's other centre backs are more capable than O'Dea.
Everything good seemed to come through the ever creative Adam Clayton and our midfield was good throughout. McCormack was unfortunate today but worked his socks off which is all you can ask. Snodgrass was caught offside one too many times but had a decent game. Rachubka just does not look confident or reassured at all and the sooner Lonergan returns the better.
Becchio looked short of match fitness when he came on for the also decent Keogh. Sam added something a bit more direct when he came on for Pugh late on and his crossing looked consistently threatening. We miss have Nunez to come off the bench in this kind of game though.
Two players that I was impressed by today were Tom Lees and Paul Connolly. I felt that Connolly did an excellent job getting forward and making the overlapping run behind Snodgrass and was solid defensively also. His crossing proved a real threat. Tom Lees was as dominant aerially as you'll see and if we get him a good partner our defensive issues will be behind us.
