That second half was possibly our worst half of the season.
No creativity at all and looked clueless in defence.
First half not much better but at least we were good going forward.
Tanner offered nothing when he came on.
Siopis had his worst game for us.
Grant, Bowler and Collins very good first half. Grant should have made it 3-1 though.
A poor result and we deserved to lose I have to say.

Yep worst second half Ive seen all season, no pressing at all , maybe they thought it wud be a walk in the park . Can’t underestimate any team , especially one playing to keep their manager in job

Shocking second half.
But, like you said if Grant put that 1v1 away, it’s game over.

Your spot on Ned.
And Tanner has gone backwards again.
I did think Colwill did ok.
As to Grant his finishing can be awful sometimes.

Agree with that, Colwill showed good signs when he came on.

We have no Ralls replacement !!!!!
We need an 8 to push Ralls and probably start with Joe filling in the gaps.
Wintle is a L1 "6". Adams is nowhere near Championship level, Sawyers legs have totally gone and Ronomhota is ?????????
This window we need a starting 9 and 8

Very disappointing but I give credit to Norwich too. They worked our midfield out and that Romeo was the weak link in defence. One to get rid of in Jan. They looked like a team playing to save their manager and they probably have. They'll improve and be top half this season. Fans need to be patient now as I think we may be in for a winless run before Xmas. Next 3 are all in the play offs. The aim is to be top 10 by Jan and top 6 by May. It's a marathon not a sprint.

Yeah definitely the worst half of football we've played all season.
We're 2-1 up at half time against a team low in confidence who have lost their last 4 games and have lots of players out injured so we should start the second half by going at them and pressing at every opportunity. But no, we sit back, let them have the ball, their confidence grows and we get exactly what we deserve.
The only good thing that can come out of this performance is Bulut learning a huge lesson.

Couldn't make it to the game today but what stands out for me is making a triple substitution when we are winning and seemingly in control...just suicide that!
If u r losing and chasing the game, I could understand it but from a winning position??? Surely u stagger the subs. I really like our manager and think he has the potential to turn us into a promotion chasing side...but there is still a rawness there with the his EFL knowledge. Still just a bit naive. Norwich are a quality side (albeit very out of form) and u still gotta keep your wits about u for the full 90 when playing them.
A bit gutted today coz that was the perfect time to play them but nevermind

Norwich were getting on top at the time but I couldn't agree more about the substitutions. To take three players off at once when you are winning rather than chasing the game is madness. As soon as it happened i feared the worst. It takes time to get into a game and to put three like for like players on cold was asking for trouble. The players taken off didn't look tired and were amongst our better players.
