Big Ernjellytot WE just deserve to go down. If you lose to Wigan at home then you get what you deserve.
When you let a relegation do the double over you, then we deserves to go down.
For persisting with a manager that has the tactical know how of a small turnip, we deserve to go down
For spending peanuts in both transfer windows when it was blatantly obvious we needed quality, we deserve to go down.

Libertine I for the life of me can't figure out why Pearce wasn't playing. In a very real sense he is our emotional leader on the pitch and our best defender...our form improved when Brian brought him back in to the starting 11. Morrison will be a fine player but he was responsible for 2 of the goals today.
We had no spark today. We had exactly zero shots on target. You aren't going to win many games with that stat. We were just incredibly flat in what could be characterized as a must win game. Not a single shot on target is just very poor...can't candy coat it.

howser I think this was a result waiting to happen even during our recent run we have been forunate not to have conceded a hatfull before our come backs, we as a side are nowhere near Premiership standard, most on here saw that at the start of the season and it is proving to be so, not enough quality proven premiership players in the squad, the type of player that McDermott had said get was going to get in, all in all, and waiting to be slammed by those on here that are happy with our position, we as fans have been let down, such the promise from the chairman that he would only sell to someone who could take us forward, instead we are heading back to where Anton found us.

i dont think its anton's fault. he has been putting a lot of money into our club, more than SJM ever would be able to do. we bought a lot of players who could be considered prem quality, pog and guthrie were to big ones. we had a lot of unfortunate events ie: everything that has happened with guthrie, pogs lack of form, various injuries to our main players, overall lack of form, harsh scheduling, harsh loses, and an overall demoralizing season. i dont think we can blame anton cause he is trying his best to splash cash for players. but he cant do much when we are still little old reading and players dont want to risk their careers coming here when we will most likely end up back in the championship.

I agree. Anton has always given McD money when he's wanted it. This solely down to McD. Looking back over the season so far it seems to be McD's decision to give the team who got us promoted a chance and that backfired. As well as strange team selections and tactics. Come January we invested and yet again another bizarre team selection has cost us imo. We now have to revert back to 4-4-2 (the thought of Hunt playing again makes me sick) and have some difficult games ahead. If we go down. I hope Anton has the balls to take us forward by getting someone else at the helm.

GSY-Royal Pog may be "no loss" right now but wait until Nick Blackman starts the next three games for us in his role and then reevaluate...
