I assume he is trying to make us harder to beat, so I can see why there were changes upfront.At least they will all put in a shift. Just not sure he needed to change the defence that much, and why not play Robertson in the middle three.

I am just a fan, work in a factory played a bit of local football. I don't see the players every day or know what is going on behind the scenes. So its either a cry for help, inspired, or insane.

So much salary on old slow players.

A tad surprised at some of the comments here; many of you were openly critical of those dropped after the midweek game…

A strange line-up but one that may well give a kick up the backside to a couple of players who thought they were undroppable…

Omer Riza will be judged on his selections/results over the next month or so; although it seems many have made their minds up already…

Chris very hypocritical by people...... I always thought you judge a team performance in game your watching but not our fans they make mind up before we kick off...

We are allowed an opinion. On paper that team looked awful. They proved me wrong (ish)

Was only able to listen to the match today and follow the match thread.

Didn’t seem to pan out as bad as we expected.

That’s fair enough mate. I thought we’d be battered today and we stood up and fought. More than happy to be proved wrong and hopefully I get proved wrong on Saturday too.

Never know every game is different no matter how good opposition is next game.... think my point about today was quite rightly people angry about our display Wednesday .... then slates riza comments after game .....he brings in 5 players today which was inline with what he said so People slags him off for it and it's not upto fans to pick team is it? Team played really well in relation to past games but they still slag team performance during game unjustified in my opinion... anyway stoke fans even more unhappy than ours and could be in as much trouble as us soon.

I was very sceptical of the selection before the game and the team far outweighed my expectations. Some decent performances and if this was the kick up the backside they needed then great.
However this ended up being 2 valuable points lost against a team who are clearly struggling themselves. Would have taken a point before the game but just feels a little disappointing like the Bristol game
