Tonight was their cup final so to speak. Win to secure staying up. They pressed us high and were brilliant in the first half.

Regis should have changed it sooner and stopped playing it out from the back to negate their high press imo, but we live and learn.

It's always best to be a realist. Tonight was a reality check for the people who think our players are worth £70m a piece etc. We have achieved what we set out to do this season. But some of our players still have a lot to learn.

We should just be glad that we can come out of there tonight and lose 5-0 and not be worried about going down. Their tactics were spot on and Regis was too slow to go to plan B. Nevermind onto next week.

Keep the faith...

Except it wasn't, they have European cup semi final next
 
Overall I agree, but I need to see a response. Theres a definite downward trend in the past few months that will carry into next season if we dont get some momentum back.

I wouldnt say they were that good mind, we were just very poor for a spell.

fluke of a goal, then a massive mistake which started a crazy 6 min spell.

We did more damage ourselves than they did imo.


It happens sometimes, guess we move on to the next game and hope to address it then.

We made a lot of mistakes, but I thought Periera outdone Le Bris in the first half. Their high press was outstanding and forced us into errors. We were too slow to change it ...

We were, but no credit to them?
