Yep, anyone who went to the game for a Bank Holiday treat probably won't come back in a hurry.

Anyone thinking watching the City as being a treat needs treatment!

Awful today, could easily have drifted into a coma first half

Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
I thought it was a really good game except for the he goal
I've seen lots worse than that..

I’ve seen worse but seen MUCH better. No shape, no urgency, owed us one after the last home game and were almost as bad.

If it wasn't for Derby and Readings point deductions we'd still be looking over our shoulder with difficult trips to Boro and Sheff utd to come.

What did fans expect?
Safe from relegation and nohing to play for.
Manager trying a few things.

Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
currently on the M4 with the missus driving. first game in a long time. that game reminded me of a meal made with old scraps from the fridge. dreadful, unappealing, random, fragmented. I am not a football coach but have seen enough games to know that what I witnessed today was grim and clueless. sorry but Morrison is not the man imho.

The squad is barely Championship standard. He's playing a lot of young players who really aren't as good as many believe, many at the end of contracts and knowing they'll be on the way, plus the loanees who'll be returning to their clubs. It's not ideal.

Next season is already shaping up to be a long one.

Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
yeh but a lot of it is basic stuff. there were too many gaps in midfield to build attacks up and poor support to the forwards. Vaulks also leaves me cold and made some very odd decisions.

The team featured only one player who is out of contract at the end of the season - Vaulks.

Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
It's the interminable (lower) mid-table slog of a 46 game championship. We need 6 teams going up and down - that would increase the tension - or promotion and relegation twice a year. That might be a bit radical though. Or a symptom of my low boredom threshold.

Yeah coz the game before was outstanding too…..

Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
Not sure how people are basing next season on the last few games. Clearly we are trying some things with what we have.
I’m glad we don’t have the “thrill” of battling relegation.

Absolutely but it's still drab

Or quite possibly, it could be a very enjoyable one.
At present, the manager is at pains to tell us that the group of players currently at his disposal is not fit for purpose. If he gets to revamp the team as he wishes in the close season, there will be no hiding place for him or his side so fingers crossed he gets it right.

Re: Christ what a drab end to the season ........
I’d like to know what new things were tried today? Shooting, crossing, heading? Nope.

We have gotten away with it this season that’s for sure that we can have the luxury of these 5 games of freedom.
However some shouldn’t be on the beach already and use the opportunity to put to in an audition for the next move or contract extension.

There's one Dave.

Vaulks seemed to actually aim the corner at Phillips!
