Most of the game that was a solidly uninspiringly mediocre performance seeing out a shit season. However it ended it a shambolic display of ineptitude, incompetence and laziness that is quite likely to lead to our relegation and the players should be ashamed, not just of the way they fell apart, but the way the sulked afterwards and tried to shirk their opportunity to acknowledge the fans afterwards.
Typical of our season, it is bookended with pathetic individual mistakes.
Bodvarsson conspiring to miss contact on an easy chance and Kelly starting the rout by deciding he was actually a spectator with no defensive duties. Quickly followed by Gunter charging out and failing to effectively clear his lines leaving a massive space in behind, with Barrow AWOL and Moore deciding to mark space rathee than close down. The awful Gunter then sold Mannone short with a shit header followed by Elphick (I think) deciding to fall over the ball when last man.
Our defence genuinely just gave up at 0-3 and waited for the whistle.
Aluko's touch is atrocious, unless he's trying to make the ball bobble unpredictably at every opportunity. WTF he was doing on the left wing with Barrow at the end I have no clue.
Clement trying to play 4-4-2 with Kelly and Swift in midfield is probably the stupidest selection choice of the season. Swift spooned at least three simple passes nowhere under zero pressure.
South Stand singing section was genuinely great. I dread to think what it was like watching that omnishambles from elsewhere.
