    It wasnt a penalty. I had a perfect view. He won the ball, it should have been a corner but not a pen

    And time wasting? When we're standing off their keeper to the extent that he can dribble to the half way line, we lose the right to complain.

    We need to take responsibility. We had negative, fearful tactics that played right into the opposition's hands.

    We cant pussy out by blaming the ref.

    It was like WWF out there and the ref let it happen.

    The ref assessor was still making his notes at 5.30 after the game. I doubt Andy Haines will ref again at VP this season-thank god.

    The ref was shit. I ain't arguing. But it's not the reason we lost.

    You could tell after 10 mins what it was going to be like.
    Ref loved it, 'Look at me,look at me'. Was going to make it about him in this game and he succeded.
    His 'I'm not going to be intimidated by a large crowd' mentality.

    Was amazed he didn't send Devine off just before half time. Was a blatant foul that deserved a booking. He was already on one. Though that was the moment he might relish and bottled it amazingly.

    Then went onto out do himself in the 2nd half.

    Doesn't preclude the fecking awful tic tacs of our manager and set up.

    I think that was why Devine got hooked at half time, lucky to be still on the pitch.

    No mate Devine was hooked at half time because he was sh@te.

    Palmer was hooked because he was sh@te

    Gibson hooked because he was sh@te.

    When you play a silly formation at home like Bowyer did you need your main midfielder to press high, tough tackling, win the ball. Devine was like a passenger and Palmer just not doing enough.

    Gibson needed to carry the ball, best men as he was meant to be our outlay. He just wasn't good at all.

    Truth is Devine and Gibson are not good enough.

    To take any of them off before Akpan shows a complete lack of nous.

    Not quite. But he needs to sort things out and turn it around quickly, as the pressure will start to build soon

    If the club or fans want Parky back the they will have to act fast.

    Think the Stoke job could be up soon.

    Sure the City board @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler, Mr Rupp & Mr Rhodes will firmly understand that this isn't good enough. Results have to pick up urgently!

    Performances have been woeful under Bowyer.

    Somebody has made a good point tweeting into Radio Leeds. Bowyer did well getting the majority of his players in early pre-season, which should have allowed him to settle on a winning formation. However, one month into the season, and he is still tinkering with his formation. Baffling to say the least
