Four match winning run ends with barely a whimper.

A good write up as always, sadly whatever Buluts version of events are, in reality he got the whole thing wrong
We had a forward starting who can’t score goals, a winger on the right side who has absolutely no bottle, a midfielder in Wintle that has one good game in every five or six games and Turnbull who looks like he should be playing for an over 60s walking football team.
The LB played like he’s never seen a football before and obviously should have been subbed at the earliest opportunity.
Our best players were on the bench apart from Tanner, whose gone backwards at a rate of knots
Why didn’t he start with Colwill, Ramsey ODowda and Ralls, and if they weren’t fit to play why have them on the bench?
Yesterday we needed a strong start to take the sting out of the game and put them on the back foot
Instead we had a line up that waved the white flag from the start.
I’ve said it before, but we have some real shit houses in our squad, we have players who are miles away from being Championship players and we currently have a manager that can only play one way!!!
If we had had a go and lost you can clap the players of the pitch for their efforts
There won’t be too many of them looking at themselves in the mirror this morning and admitting they didn’t perform
Most will probably be looking forward to a few days off because of the international break
No pride, no guts no emotions, no shame
Apart from Ipswich, have City gone out purposely to start a game well this season? I can hardly think of any other occasion. We had those players on the bench because Bulut had no intention of taking the game to Swansea, as he has no intention of taking the game to anyone. It’s a recipe for disaster.
Wintle is a useful player , doing the basics , he was poor yesterday but so were the rest of the team
Totally agree with everything you say here. His plan in this game, as in every other game it seems, is to nullify the opposing team for 70 minutes, then throw on the creative players with flair to nick a goal or two. It badly misfired yesterday as he was outthought by the JB's manager Luke Williams, who knows like any decent manager, that the best form is defence is attack. Thus they beat us easily. Bulut needs to take a good hard look at his tactics. I expect it will be the same in our next game v Sunderland. We did the same at their place earlier on in the season and stole a 1-0 win. If he tries that a 2nd time, they will murder us this time around.
That was very disappointing, that was the same team that played very well and beat Ipswich, although if you watched both games from a distance, you wouldn't believe it could possibly believe it was the same team.
The tactics did look wrong, we looked scared and moved from trying to play the ball out from defence to long Kicks to Meite who didn't win one header, there had to be some variation. Those players also let us and Bulut down, they weren't up for a battle one little bit and rolled over and let them win every fifty-fifty, they should really be ashamed this morning, that was a good team, miles better than Swansea on paper, but they just didn't turn up.
Next time we play the jacks our tactics should be "have a f*****g go!"
After Ipswich I thought Buluts anti football had turned a corner sadly I was wrong.
He got it totally wrong in the Derby he's pointing fingers at players time to point at himself.
Let's be perfectly honest - the Ipswich game was good but we could easily have lost it. We did play better in that game than we have played for months and months BUT looking at the season as whole it has been pretty dismal and the hype surrounding the recent 4 match winning streak quite astonishing.
Yesterday we were once again exposed as a team made up of bits and pieces players and a number who simply are not good enough at this level. The odd good performance and a few lucky wins away from home have placed us higher up the league than I think we should really be. The table does not lie but fans know what they have been watching week after week which is why there are thousands of empty seats at the ground each week and ST holders who pick and choose when to turn up.
A mid table finish is more than we expected, but some of the games have been worse than turgid. Yesterday was simply poor.
Good read, Bob. I think it was a pen though as Ng continued to hold his shirt in the box. If a foul starts outside the box and continues into it, it’s a pen.
