We mustn't over react to this. 17:27 - Oct 2 with 3671 views | TheBoyBlue | It is a bad day, but it is a one-off in a sequence of performances that have gradually been getting better. However, the players really need to hang their heads in shame over today. Completely outbattled and outfought. So off the pace. They HAVE to make sure this is a real rarity from hereon in. | |

We are generally getting better. Today was abysmal though. | |

In October. If we're here in March then we have every right to question Cook seriously. Heck, if we'd somehow held on to our lead today we'd be 14th. League position is meaningless at this stage. | |

It's a one-off on the basis of recent weeks. Genuinely, we just need a bit of context with this. | |

It's all about context. We showed what we were capable of against Doncaster. True Doncaster were dreadful, but if we play like we did that night, we will win most of our games. It is coming together, but today needs to be a massive kick up the backside to some of these players that we can't just expect it. | |

Exactly. We were awful today - genuinely terrible. People seem to be so accepting of this mediocrity but why? It’s football, managers get sacked, players move on etc. It’s so obvious this isn’t working. Just move on. | | | |

but dismal performances aren't alongside the 8 league horrors, you can add two cup no shows bit of a pattern wouldn't you say ? | | | |

The issue...surely....is that Donny is the outlier. | |

Rather Wigan’s position than ours though. | | | |

Doncaster was a genuine one off. Today is a performance we've seen several times under Cook. Open your eyes, mate. | |

In fairness, in both cup games we had enough chances to win and probably should have won. I wouldn’t call them no shows. | |

You'd be happy to bumble around just outside the bottom 4 until March before judging Cook? Wow. | |

It's not meaningless, it's ten games in, this is the point at which the league starts to properly take shape. Right now, we're looking at being in this position, come March. | |

I thought West Ham kids team were fairly worthy winners to be fair. We started brightly for 10 minutes but offered very little over the next 80. | |

It's a one off, based on recent weeks in which we've won 2 in ten? | |
