    When he does go, he needs to take Gent with him.

    There's nothing about this performance that's acceptable, let alone quality.

    Defensively poor, poor in possession, no goal threat, out fought, out worked, poor on set pieces, the system looks unbalanced.

    Terrible performance from a bang average looking group of players.

    This will be another wasted year.

    Cheap options produce cheap results.

    Unfortunately there is no plan to create more chances and score more goals. We're actually worse than the end of last season

    Alexander needs to go back to the two central midfielders with someone alongside Smallwood. It means possibly only Cook up front by himself but we can't attack down the wings and we can't attack through the centre at the moment.

    There's losing by giving it a go and being acceptable. Or lose without a fight and surrendering in a whimper which is not. If this is a collective that have been signed for promotion then we may has well wave the white flag now! Awful.

    Kiwonya is spot on there. Have we had a shot yet?

    Maybe unfair to judge Sanderson but he looks crap

    Lack of effort today from nearly every player.

    Disagree here. We are woeful but Grimsby have looked decent in both games

    All the loanees look crap. The usual youth loan dross.

    We never, ever learn. This window looks just the same as last summers. It'll lead to the same outcome for the club this season, the same outcome for the manager, the same empty promises from the owner, and the same empty and forlorn 'buy in' from supporters next summer.

    Round and Round we go.

    The limitations of this first choice midfield being brutally exposed.

    There isnt enough defensive discipline, it's not a controlled press and once in behind they don't work hard enough to get back, Pointon has even jogged back numerous times and been shown for what he is, which is a work in progress.

    Pattison is wasted out wide he needs to be getting involved and assisting Smallwood.

    Only Jamie walker has any defensive nous and work rate and he is out of favour.

    Wingbacks have offered nothing and are often caught in positions which offer no help to either the midfield or defence, it's all been rather strange
