Do you ever make sense. I’m not saying it isn’t disappointing and I expect better but we’ve had performances just as bad if not worse than this this season is my point. Hartlepool and Notts County away were terrible showings. I didn’t think Rusk was the man because of Saturday and I don’t think he’s a dude because of tonight. I’m just prepared to give him a chance - many, who claimed they were, proving to be liars. I’m giving Rusk plenty of time. It’s ill discipline from the players that I’m angry about. I hope he stamps it out. Simon Rusk has to come down hard on ill discipline, otherwise some of these new players will destroy everything for him. |

If Hogan did get sent off for dissent then totally agree with you, if he didn’t then it’s a mistake by the referee after a poor decision by Hogan. It was ill discipline to give away the penalty full stop. He should never have dived in like that and it was a stonewall penalty. Yep, no need. He'd recovered and got goal side, needed to stay on his feet and hold him up. Ideally push him wide. But diving in like that was a hot headed, rash decision which has cost us massively. |

The rule was changed years ago that he doesn’t need to leave the pitch after a booking JK..

If the Hogan red was for the foul surely the ref would have done that first, then dealt with the Maynard dissent To be fair, to me it looked like a yellow for Maynard, and then a straight red for the challenge, which is the wrong decision. |

It was bad decision making and yes I agree it was a stonewall penalty. |

That’s your club captain you’re talking about. Always leads by example... He actually does when things are going well, he looks brilliant against poor sides when we're in control. Shambolic at times against the better teams though, and the West Ham game showed that it doesn't have to be that way. He can keep his discipline when he wants to. |

The thing that’s coming into my head now, and it’s probably an easy thing to say whilst we’re 2-0 down at home, but what a baffling time to sack Jim. What a ridiculous risk to take when we had something to lose in the league. I could’ve seen us winning tonight and catching up with Torquay when Jim was here. I can’t now. Why could you see us winning tonight under Jim. We failed to win/score against Notts, Torquay, Solihull and Hartlepool - basically anyone decent in the league this season. Why wouldn’t I have had reason to believe we could beat Sutton United at home under our greatest ever manager? |

That was dreadful. If we can be jubilant about Saturday, we can be scathing about tonight. Utter shite.
Needs a big response on Saturday. I hate to say it because it’s outrageously early but if we get dicked on Saturday, he’s going to be under pressure already. Sadly that’s the world we live in.

Poor performance, but exactly the same kind of poor performance we were prone to under JG, only with added ill discipline (so basically Hartlepool 2).
We really need to work out how to get something from the better teams, but unless we cut out these stupid errors at the back, we're going nowhere soon.

Totally agree with all of that apart from I’d replace hot headed with stupid - he wasn’t angry or trying to Injury the player that is what I see as hot headed. |

An absolutely atrocious performance. Thought we were very very poor on the ball tonight. I lost count on how many times we played the ball back.

That second half was as bad as Saturday's first half was good if that makes sense, they had 2 shots on target including the penalty, they were nothing special but for the whole of the second half we didn't trouble them. Timbers was right though, they do fall down a lot.
