Some on here were saying let’s wait till September 1st to judge our window and accused others of being bedwetters for questioning our transfer dealings up till now. I hope they are happy having watched that performance. That team was grossly...

Final thoughts… We failed to prepare properly during pre season. The team selection and set up tonight was weird and unacceptable. The transfer market (so far) has lacked proper strategy and thought. There seems to be discord within the club…...

A rusty team and blaming one player for the defeat is ignoring the team's poor performance. And substitutions didn't work either.

Because it’s suits the sky narrative for another promoted team to win a game.

The leaning narrative from VAR is hideous. Whenever anyone leans one way, by virtue of where your arms are on your body, they will always go first. He can't remove them, he doesn't make himself big, he just leans. To suggest leaning is now a...

Wasn’t a brain fart - it was never a penalty.

So Kavanagh tells Tarks if the arm is by his side it’s not a pen. So if that’s the case, why did he give it and shy wasn’t it overturned? However I think we all know the answer.

Everyone played very poorly today.

Chris Sutton on the bbc That's not a penalty. That's absolutely not a penalty. Who knows what the directive is, but his arm is down by his side. We'll hear David Moyes after - but that's a scandal, I think. That's never a penalty.

Think O'Brien was given a rough task there, nothing in front of him at all and trying to do a job down the right on his own, which isn't really his natural game. A competent RW in there, along with a mobile DM and at least one of our LBs...

Are you blaming Tarks then. The ball was even deflected on the way.

We didn’t. But you also expect officials to do their job.

That result is going to look worse and worse as the season goes on. They were woeful and even with our unbalanced team with a more positive manager we could easily have won that game.

It's totally on Moyes.... The team, the formation. And the fact he had to wait until half time to clearly make a system change

Must have missed the pre-season optimism.
