karbota Relegation is now almost certain but back to our roots is nothing to fear.
So really looking forward to the mass exodus of the over-hyped overpaid foreign mercenary players, management, and hangers-on.
Also really excited and looking forward to life in Division 1 with all those super-local derbies ie Oxford, Portsmouth, MK Dons, Cheltenham, and hopefully Swindon.

Zip Holmes has become a liability. First the Curtis Davies late equaliser where he was caught flat footed. Then the reckless challenge giving Fulham a pen last week and then that needless header tonight. He was dominated by their number eleven and had a terrible game.

Constantly look so lethargic. Little incentive for the players when they’re not going to be here next season

Lots of improvement needed in Holmes’ game but his name isn’t Liam Moore so the consensus is he’s better than how good he actually is
In particular, how he deals with crosses. He isn’t reactive enough and as you say, caught flat footed often. Mistakes do happen but his positioning for the own goal was terrible, really poor spatial awareness. Also think he needs to improve the physicality aspect of the game, think he’s bullied a little too often
Still, as a 5th choice CB, he’s a very good option. It’s more testament to him that he’s pretty much the only CB that can constantly stay fit and it’s his first real run playing as a CB so mistakes are bound to happen

URZZZZ Really poor. Team showing no signs of improvement whatsoever. Just can’t fathom the decision to stick to the 4-2-3-1 with the current personnel. We have so many beige, ineffective lightweight forwards and midfielders and yet continuously cram them all in
Southwood 6
Ashcroft 4
Holmes 4
Morrison 6
Bristow 5
Laurent 4
Drinkwater 4
Rinomhota 5
Swift 4
Dele Bashiru 4
Puscas 4
Joao 4
Clarke 5

BroguewindermereROYAL I`ve never been more ashamed to call this team my own in over 50 years, we were in division 4 but at last they played with passion. gutted for our fans,many have abandoned the club and many more are going to follow.
If the owners do not act it`s proof they just don`t care.
Come back Carl asaba and Michael meaker all is forgiven

The second goal was just as bad with the players dicking around with the ball around our penalty box with Laurent mis- kicking and conceding possession. Another big mistake from him.
I am sick of Pauno, this team and the dismal brand of football. Slow, laboured, no movement, no pace, constant sideways passing, short passes amongst clusters of players which achieve nothing, silly passing around at the back and abject errors gifting the opposition goals.
Pauno’s latest masterplan was to have the two centre backs inside the box on either side of Southwood for goal kicks. Utterly pointless.
We were also terrible in the air with only Morrison winning headers.
Luton were very ordinary and won at a canter. If Pauno stays we go down.
It summed it all up at the end when we came to applaud the fans and was met with a torrent of boos. Sad times.

Zip I will say in Pauno’s defence the individual errors from the likes of Holmes, Laurent and Southwood have been dreadful and there is not much he can do about that.
We are incapable of keeping a clean sheet and then just go through the motions until the game ends.

That's a concentration/decision making thing and can certainly be improved by coaching.

Yep a one off is difficult to do much about, but when its game after game...
