    IMO, we look like a team that has nothing to play for, which is pretty understandable. But we do need to pick up those last few points to get to 40.

    This season was always going to be tough, with raised expectations and a new stadium. Throw in the injuries we've contended with and the underwhelming performances of some of our new signings (who we were broadly excited with upon announcement) and our 'star' player throwing a strop, and it's not gone as we'd hoped.

    People saying that we won't win again all year are, IMO, vastly overreacting. We are a mid table side. Mid table sides go through tricky spells, players lose form, you don't get the rub of the green, whatever. But it comes back too.

    There have been a lot of individual mistakes in defence, which is hardly the managers fault, but yeah we do need to improve.

    I think the winning goal showed Byram's' inexperience and highlighted why Slav hasn't trusted him fully. They break down the left in the 93rd minutes or something and he was up on the right wing. He should have been more cautious at that time.

    Well, they broke the FFP rules to get an unfair advantage over the other Champ teams, on their way to promotion.

    Bad day at the office.

    Didn't think the XI which started was correct.

    First away defeat of 2017.

    Move on.

    Quite an interesting insight from Winston I thought.

    That's what made it so frustrating for me.

    I'm not one for generalised 'we should be beating teams like...', but on the day, pretty much any half way decent team would have put Bournemouth away.

    the half way decent teams seem to score 3 against them ;lol
