    Does Threlkeld deserve another chance? I'd put Ridehalgh back in too. I'd like to see Angol and Walker playing the Cook and Lavery roles today too.

    Couldn't go today due to work, caught the last twenty mins on the radio, must admit I was awaiting the inevitable such is what we've become lately!
    Sounds like we've played better? commentators stated we should have had a penalty for handball, is that right? We not getting much luck lately, we must be due a break soon
    It's hard work supporting City, especially when you live in Huddersfield:-(

    That's the same for me, painful living in Huddersfield.

    Angol was awful in the centre forward role.

    Without checking, were they once again playing a team in the bottom 5...?

    Definitely not handball, even though I screamed for one like all the kop.

    This is what happens when you buy the wrong players prepare incorrectly, play people not in their correct positions and give very soft goals and do the basics wrong. We have used with three keepers this season so no stability for the spine , the defence is full of midfielders and the strike force .....barn door and Banjo come to mind. On top of that we are now playing well but still losing ...Very worrying times ..... we are also getting a real dose of bad luck but all the times we missed those chances in the past games due to poor strikers with little quality now bite you in the bum now. No extra points in the bag......

    Really enjoyed the match today,plenty of entertainment for a change despite the result.
    Hope Hughes can start getting better results soon because on current form we’re going down.
    Anyone know who was on the pitch at half time? He seemed very popular but I couldn’t hear a word from the tannoy, and was to far away to see.

    Agree.

    Plenty to be positive about, in theory.

    Some really good evidence of proper, high level coaching.

    But he can't do anything about the defence until the summer.

    Let's not let the attack off either. Lavery did well, but Cook looks sluggish and clumsy.

    Yes Dave , I laughed out loud when it was announced over the tannoy. At a guess Evans/ Gilly/ Cooke would have deserved it.

    Hughes has spotted Evans’s true position in a week, yet Adams or Trueman couldn’t overa year between them? Wait until Walker is fit, that’s going to be even better!

    Add Stuart to that list, Kevin, he brought him in and thought he was an out and out winger still...

    A lot better today, width, movement and a bit of intent for once. Hopefully enough in us to eek out them three or four wins we still need.

    Having said all that, it says something about the quality of the team in general when in one game alone, at least 5 maybe 6 players have there best game in a city shirt and yet we still lose
