Sadly Gav is no where near good enough, Yet another soft goal was the turning point.

Even more disappointing was the damp squib of a second half, where substitutions made us weaker.

It does feel like the wheels have come off. Without Flynn Downes we are looking pretty average.

3 defeats in 4 have ended automatic hopes for me and on this form we could lose play off place!

Just look devoid of ideas in attack. Teams seemed to have sussed how to play us and we don't seem able to change how we play.

Losing Fraser was unlucky but the other subs seemed to make no real impression and taking Aribo off actually made us weaker.

Today we squandered a golden opportunity to get back in the pack.

Really poor. Got bullied out of it. The lack of pace in our build up play was shocking and very poor movement off the ball. We ended up with Jack Stephens as our playmaker, less than ideal. Ref was shocking but made little difference. I have beeen a big supporter of RM but he got it badly wrong today. The defence were clueless as to what system they were playing and who was playing where. At home just play Manning or Bree and keep it settled. Once he realised they were playing nobody upfront, particularly when Obafemi went off at HT, he needed to get one of the CBs off and an additional wide player on. We are playoffs bound.

Since we have introduced WiFi in the ground it's given me a headache and shit results. Can we turn that crap off now please?
Agree that the subs seemed to bring little benefit. But then am still grateful for the incredible run we've been on. Certainly no need to push the panic button but maybe let's give players minutes based on performances vs amount of experience

I don’t think I’ve ever yawned so much at football….

Oh dear that was poor. Bazunu just had to punch that cross away. A really poor error. He was far too timid. Terrible time to concede the penalty. Bednarek said it hit his face but from the brief highlight I saw on my phone it looked a penalty. The second half was the biggest disappointment. Too slow and predictable. 81% possession but created very little and never really looked like saving it. Losing Fraser was a big blow. Edozie saw a lot of the ball but flattered to receive with crossing not good enough. I'm afraid it looks odds on the lottery of the play offs though we need to pick up results to guarantee a play off place. The super computer (before today's result) fed in all the prediction stats and has us finishing 7th. We need to sort ourselves out. We are really not ready for the Premiership but if we miss out this season we will lose much of our squad I fear.

Should have been a second yellow for the Millwall player for an awful tackle but ref completely bottled it. I thought the ref was very poor. 5 mins injury time after loads of subs, a number of injuries and blatant time wasting was a joke.

Part of what's been fun about the big second-tier holding tank that is the Championship is that they let you play football—until they don't (which apparently occurs around the 30-match mark). Our problem presently is we still think we can get by just by playing football. We're going to have to get stuck in a whole lot more.

Wow - just watched the highlights and have to say Gavin flubbed the 1st goal badly. Any keeper knows to either punch it or stretch out your arms to get the catch early not wait to use your chest. UGH. The second goad PEN was a joke. I watched it 5x to see it. Yes it hit his hand, but what are you supposed to do when you are turning your body away and your LEFT hand is by your side. REF bottled that and a few others. That being said, I think most of these players believe they deserve to be in the automatic promotion spots and dont feel they have to earn it cause they were in the Prem LAST season. From what I saw, except for Stu, Che and KWP, the rest were mediocre at best. Well this game showed that any time can beat us, so the lads better pull their heads out of their butts and realize that they need to fight for a playoff position. This Jekyll and Hyde persona we have needs to stop and fast.
