Our rabble including the manager want to be made to listen to the reaction from fans on radio Bristol from 5-6pm, shame them into a reaction!

After the Blackpool game we had 22pts from 18.... We've now got 23pts from 23.... The form is alarming, and if we slip below a point a game average then its gonna get even harder.... And in a nutshell there's the stark reality we need at least another 20-25 points and for the life of me after that performance I can't see where there going to come from. |

You know what I miss? The DC/GC days of throwing the kitchen f**king sink at the defence. Sorry but this slow build up tip tap across our back line in the opposing half just isn’t doing it for me. There is no drive to go forward, no fight and no inspiration. When Westbrooke isn’t there we are more direct with a quicker tempo but he slows it down so much it’s infuriating. How he stayed on for 80 minutes today is anyone’s guess. The game was crying out for McCormick. Full of energy, creative and can put in a tackle when needed. |

And I include myself in that, can’t believe how it’s turned out for us. These clowns have taken a side in 3rd and turned it into a relegation outfit in a year. Mental. It shows how easy it is to have airy fairy dreams of developing youth for millions whilst playing sexy football. We simply don’t have the brains at the club to do it. Tbh with you, I was always happy with the standard of football under GC. I appreciate it’s not for everyone, but for me all I ask for is giving 100% for every chance - I want my team to be desperate to win. Since GC left I haven’t seen that at all. |

The likes of Tony Craig, Liam Sercombe and even Tom Nichols would improve this side. We have recruited very poorly.
This is the first game that I have missed but from what I’ve heard and read it’s the same problem again. Poor in both boxes. We need reinforcements before the deadline or it’s league two. I’m sure of it.

Our problem is Garner was a under 21s manager at the elite level and thought he could bring those players and principles to l1 adult level. I thought PT could come in and iron out some of the flaws and instil a bit of realism but it’s boys vs men out there. They think they’re still at school. Compare them to the players who’ve had to fight for their careers like we saw in the players who took us to two promotions from the conference. Players who’d tasted disappointment and the harsh reality of football. Those who’d been blunted and had high mental strength. The project is failing. This bunch of players seem to just turn up for the pay packet. No passion, no pride, no team, no fighting for each other, gutless, spineless and just passing the time because they can't pass the ball. The conference side may have had less skill but they fought, battled, played for the badge, manager and team. Whatever you think of DC's skill as a manager at least he had a team that was Gas through and through and had pride to play. We are in a worrying state. |

Does Tis think he is guardiola?! Play your best team and don’t mess around...the grant debacle is a joke. Not in the starting 11 because the manager though he was suspended?? |

On the other hand, we’re only 17 points off the play offs with a game in hand. 23 to go, you never know! |

Before kick off, before the team was announced, I was saying I hope we don't play 5 defenders. This to me was Tisdale's 1st mistake.
His 2nd mistake was McCormick being on the bench.
His 3rd mistake was his tactics used because route 1 football with the team we had was the wrong way to play.
His 4th mistake was using our subs way too late.
We all make mistakes. My 1st mistake today was waking up.
My 2nd mistake was paying £10 to watch this crap.
My 3rd mistake is actually being angry/bothered about this. Why should I when this lot don't play like they are bothered.
Not long left in this window to sort this mess out. Im sorry but we are well on our way to L2. I hate commenting after a defeat because emotions get the better of me but I can't see my opinion changing tomorrow.

I just miss Ollie Clarke, Liam Sercombe, Tony Craig, JCH, even Rollin Menayese... They’d put in so much more fight than this current lot. Agree 100% Winners |

Well that was poor. Little idea in the final third...no movement from Ayunga when he came on and apart from Nicholson zero creativity.
Leahy was a threat going forward but equally a liability in defense, in fact the entire defense was error prone and poorly organised again. Not impressed with Day so far but perhaps my expectations were too high. Williams is no wing-back for sure.
We lack that really motivated player, a real captain, who can drive the players on and get that extra 10% needed out of everyone.
Got to go back to a back four and hope Daly is fit next week as he's seems the only player we got with a goal-scorers instinct.
The last day of the window on Monday might be decisive - a JCH saves us but Stefan Payne will finish us...I'm not hopeful.

The problem has been the same all season. Either we don’t have any strikers on the bench and now we only have Ayunga. I don’t like to bash him as he was surely bought to develop. How anyone at the club has let us go through a campaign with this strikeforce is beyond belief.
I’m bracing myself for League 2 when I finally punish myself by driving from Dorset on a Saturday, unless the club can find a gem from somewhere, seems to me all the potential signings have decided we are a basket case and possibly rightly so!
Tis needs to go to a back 4, not play Westbrooke and Harries, surely he’s seen enough now.
A good season to miss by the looks of it.

That was tough to watch. I cannot see us staying up. We are just poor in so many areas of the pitch. The BBC stats say we had 18 shots? I can only remember about four or five of note. Oz and Hanlon both had decent chances at 0 0. Nicholson hit the bar. Westbrook free kick. Most the rest were headers etc though. |

Said it before and I’ll say it again- it seems this lot were scouted on paper with not enough research done into their attitude on the pitch. No leaders anywhere, although that’s not surprising either from a Garner squad. We might have a nice training ground but the footballing side of the club is an utter disgrace from top to bottom. We want to be Peterborough but we aren’t even a poor man’s Peterborough tribute act. I’d love us to go back to basics and put a side of battlers together again. |

Graham Coughlan WYHHB? 4th in the table just over a year ago. To this sh*t! Yep, but he wouldn’t do the same with these players. When GC took over, IMO we had a team of battlers that had lost their way. But most of this squad are Weak, & no leadership on the pitch. I admit some have a bit of individual quality but no fight & don’t show up often enough - the likes of Westbrooke looks like a 14 year old playing against men. |

If Cian Harries can play professional football then so can I.
Why do we continue to play 5 at the back when we’re always on the back foot because of it.
Just play a flat back 4, it’s so infuriating.

Well Starnes said he would change the clubs DNA, but he also said we had the best squad in years. He needs sacking. As for the game then, we are going down. And he should take TW with him |
