Took a view of today's squad and starting formation although initial dismay became one of grudging acceptance. Somehow you know how it's going to be.

why not play Chaplin with Jackson / Ladapo in attack - f*ck it, Cambridge have gone ahead, just saw a goal update.

don't know if they deserve that lead or we've been poor but SWFC beating Plymouth last looked, makes it more vital for us to get three points today. This is a fixture we have to be winning, great opportunity today with the top two facing off with each other. NO dropped points from us, we can't afford to be beaten.

Absolutely f**king woeful, clueless from start to finish and second best throughout. Not one player above a five out of ten. Just wtf is wrong with Davis, absolute garbage, Broadhead done nothing, Edmundson f*ck up that led to the move from which they scored. Its a dire shambles. Sort it out McKenna you one dimensional fuckwit.

We need a seriously good second half to grab the 3 points as we have to get top 2, the thought of play offs fills me with dread!

They would get hair dryer treatment from me, whatxare they doing? do they know whats at stake here?

KM best sort this shower out and fast, if we make an effort we could suprisingly win this.

If we keep playing the same passing football. Teams will just have to set up to disrupt that ..if we played some long balls and bypass midfield in to the box .that will only keep them guessing. And drag them all over..we need the mick Mccarthy hoof ball..fancy football will only take you so far in this league ..

You’d certainly struggle to choose Town as the promotion challengers and Cambridge as the relegation candidates but you could be excused if you guessed it the wrong way round. Cambridge playing with more passion energy and desire than Town and I don’t believe their keeper has had a shot to save as yet ?

This feels like a repeat of the Everton v Arsenal game I watched at lunchtime.

not able to view or really listen to the f**king thing so making do with random replies. Seems we're not playing well and the players don't realize the necessity of three points today. Not only that Derby got a lead, they're right on our asses now and Bolton could just as easily follow suit with a win today.

Never in favor of that 4-2-3-1 the manager uses time and again. We need goals today, fucks sake put more attackers in second-half and make a sub where and if necessary. We CAN win this, all it takes it some minor adjustment and some playng names out there to earn a salary and understand the importance at least of this very one fixture. They missed a penalty also ? Hell, something needs to be addressed second period but sure we can pull this around. You got to keep faith in the team and players.

I've just seen the bench and no other defender is available whats happened to Wolfie or Burgess just relying on Keogh is not good enough

It must be stressful to be there. I am watching on my phone in a bar in Cape Town whilst the rugby is on and its stressful from here! If we can pinch a win, things will look good for us. If not, lets forget the league and win the FA Cup...? 😱

I’d be less stressed watching where you are Wilf. Love Cape Town although I guess it depend where, lucky you, holiday or working ?
