Worst performance of the season 21:49 - Oct 17 with 4003 viewsnoggin

Absolutely shocking. This has to be on McKenna.

Poll: If KM goes now, will you applaud him when he returns with his new club?

Seriously? In what way? They should’ve been out of sight by halftime.


Did you miss the pen saved, another pen that should've been given, the clearance off the line, the blocked close range shot... ?

It's been consistently bad for 10 months, bu I don't expect anything to change as it's become acceptable.


It's been unacceptable to point it out.
Any criticism of the manager ever and of the team over the last two weeks of hype (where everyone forgot how bad we were at Blackburn) has been as jumped on with incredulity and outrage. Simply having anything less than a positive note gets posters jumped on and called names.

We once again look half asleep, don't move the ball quick enough either, no real patterns of play, still look like a bunch of strangers waiting for things to happen..

McKenna takes responsibility in terms of recruiting the players, but you can’t blame McKenna for the staggering lack of quality on the pitch.

I disagree. I thought we were beaten by a fortunate own goal and a missed pen. We made chances


They literally had three or four pint blank shots saved in the first half and missed virtually an open goal. They should have been out of sight.

I’m not saying we couldn’t have scored but Palmer made a string of top saves. Add that to the start of the 2nd half when they were all over us & we were frankly dreadful, I don’t think we deserved anything from that at all.

But they're a top side. But not top enough beat Palmer. He was class. And you need a class keeper. They won from an oggie. I'd have taken a draw all night long. We were unfortunate really.

I don't think it was any better or worse than our other poor away performances this season in which the only points we have attained have been through penalties, we just happened to miss one tonight.

I was referring to your assertion that "They should’ve been out of sight by halftime." We also had 4 or 5 very presentable chances.

I thought we were awful. Looked disjointed at times, & very loose in our play. Our defending was very poor. Ball control poor also. Didn’t look like a team together at all. Yes we had chances but Hirst up front is playing with such low confidence. We gave Middlesbrough so much space. We need to see Nunez, Azom, Akpom, Clarke, to start I think, but really don’t know what the answer is. Mistakes all over the place. The break has clearly not worked well for us, we were improving, & slowly you could see a team developing. Let’s improve it on Tuesday & leave this one behind.

Way over the top reaction.

We didn't get in top gear but we still could easily have won that. Not the performance we wanted that's for sure.


Easily have won!!!

That last minute summed up most of the game. Passing it around between O’Shea and Furlong with the clock ticking down & no sense of urgency when it needed to go in the box. And then taking ages over a throw in before the final whistle blows.


I’m sure I’ll get downvotes for this, but that’s on McKenna. 2-0 down, defending a set piece and we’ve got 11 men defending in our own box. Any other team that needs a goal changes it up, puts a centre back up top, or extra striker - not us, stick to our rigid ways of trying to score that perfect goal with no urgency.

First game excuse for that one

Not this game.

We've had 2 weeks to plan for this against a side who are on a bad run.


Both wingers were poor
Striker missed a pen
CB feet all over the place for an OG
CM no control and outplayed.

Not a positive night at all.

It was bad performance after a decent amount of rest (for most of them) and some momentum as well.

We will comfortably beat Charlton (I hope) but that doesn’t fix everything, need results in these kind of games if you’re serious about top 2.

Just home from a long trek to Boro tonight. Not great, it has to be said and a lack of urgency from ours. But worth noting we had an obvious penalty denied and their second looked pretty offside. Our stats were better than theirs and to be fair, they were ordinary.

OP is an over reaction statement. KMck didnt ask for an international break to remove key players nor ask for two players to be fully rested last week. Our prep was less than helpful. On the night key players didnt perform

Nothing from forwards
Akpom continues to have very little impact
We didnt take our pen, we didnt get a clear pen given
We gave to many chances on transition and defensively made too many mistakes

We will bet better than this going forwards.

Agreed first half could of gone either way final whistle went and and my first thought was decent game that both will be up there

We only had Oshea and Mcateer on international duty


Our prep was no different to that of Boro


But today is another day

We've got two home games coming up, so 6 points to grab before another opportunity to put the wrongs of our away games to right
