don't get me wrong , OG is obviously a manager with enormous potential and a fine pedigree , i am in no way disrespecting him , he is not out on the pitch.

my theory is that players such as bruno and lopez may have the attitude that we made the play offs last year , we are watched at home by 20 k + every game ,all we have to do is run out on the pitch and 3 points will be ours.............i am flumoxed as to how we lose at home to the bottom club in the league ....seems to me there is a problem with commitment/application........maybe time to off-load lopez and bruno , inigo is a class player and all round nice guy andi'm obviously not going to diss Len but the other two seem to be resting on their laurels so it could be time to say ....adios....:bigwave:

I actually thought Bruno wasn't the worse player on the pitch last night, but yes, dave certainly hasn't been the player he was last year. There was this rumour that Oscar didn't rate him and that is why we waited so long for him to be signed. Maybe Oscar was right!

Btw. I heard a rumour that mackail smith wouldn't be fit till February at the earliest...anyone else here this?

At full strength, right back is our weakest position in the side. Keep Calderon as back up given his versatility, and bring in somebody to start week in week out.

Lopez has been extremely poor this season, god knows why. Still, we're 3 points off the play offs with 5 of our 6 best players (IMO) having missed the majority of the season thus far.

Dump Bruno certainly, SD i'm not sure about, he did look awful most of the time but then his corners were good (I'm assuming he took the one Upson scored from or was he off by then?) and a couple (just a couple mind) of good long balls during the game.

BTW, to me you avatar looks like a man with breasts - is it your favourite ladyboy? (no offense meant)

I first heard he would be back around September, next it was around December and now the date just keeps changing. I think we just have to wait until he appears on the team sheet to get any real news.

I personally don't see Bruno as a player who sits on his laurels... Dave well that's a different matter but then imho he's always played better with Orlandi the side.. whether that happens again remains to be seen
Re losing to the bottom side.. look at last night's results and over the wknd.. Leicester losing at SW.. QPR losing at Doncaster.. Watford losing 3/0 at home to Yeovil.. no match is a given.. But also I maybe we aren't as good as some say we are

I wasn't at the game last night but it's clear that yes, singling out certain players solely because of their nationality is absolutely the right way forward. Brilliant.

i am flumoxed as to how we lose at home to the bottom club in the league

The 2nd bottom club beat the top club last night. It's the Championship, that's what happens.

Doesn't really matter if we will never play 2 up front.

Bruno and Lopez have been below par all season....I can't see a reason why OG keeps on selecting them

Calde isnt great at RB either and Dave - well we havent had much choice with Orlandi, Buckley and Lua Lua injured.

Since they should all be fit for Saturday, Dave should be dropped.

Leicester and Blackpool had shock defeats last night. Peterborough beat last year's Championship winners home AND away yet got relegated. The Championship is a fabulous division where anyone can beat anyone regardless of league positions, but some people are still shocked by shock results, which aren't actually that shocking as they happen virtually every weekend.

I have never thought that Lopez was all that good, but if he is terrible why blame him? It's not his fault he isn't very good at football, rather the manager that picks him every week.
