    Some would counter with only 2 defeats in 12. However, Hughes needs to up his game now and make changes to personnel and formation at home, because we've slipped into Adams boring football without looking like scoring mode now.

    Missed today due to work commitments but managed to listen to what sounded like a turgid 2nd half.

    Long honeymoon period well and truly over for him now

    Problem in the past has been too many draws and we seem to be following the same route

    We have turned into a carbon copy of the Trueman and Sellars team. We need to sort it out the crowed nearly fell asleep second half.

    Why with every manager we get are they too stubborn to change it up or freshen it for the next game!? Our squad should be walking this league!

    Maybe the squad isn't as good as we thought?

    We have an excellent keeper and sound defence.

    Smallwood has been very underwhelming and needs dropping for East

    Gilliead is Gilliead, offers nothing for me, yet every manager seem to rate him?

    Wright and Banks are fine

    Pereira must have a clause that he plays every game, because he flatters to deceive every week.

    Cannot knock Cook for the goals he has scored, but the rest of the strikers have offered nothing whatsoever.

    So, not as good as Hughes leads us to believe

    Don’t know why people keep saying we should be walking the league, goals get you promoted look through our team’s history in terms of goals. Nowhere near enough to walk any league.

    We could do with a couple of injuries [only minor] to FORCE Hughes into making changes

    This next month or so is huge maybe it bodes well that 4 out of 5 of our games are away from home where this style seems to work

    Sound defence yet they are conceding - i would add to press they have added little from set pieces and corners to assist our goals for stat.

    It was nothing to do with him we were comfortable and creating chances until Smallwoods brain fart.

    No we wasn't comfortable. We never have been. It's pure luck that we are where we are in the league. NOT GOOD ENOUGH
