90% fans would have picked same side today.
Pearce needs to dish some rollickings out.
Do some of players think we just need to turn up to win.
You can't let teams like Blackburn play because they've got forwards to punish you.
Teams have worked us out stop Antonio stop Britt you stop forest. Get some loans in.

Sorry old red but Davies would get better performances from those players. Not a popular view I know and that's not to say I'd rather have the poisoness dwarf at the helm. However, he would do better with the squad than we are currently doing.
Time to improve yet but how is the question? I can't see any players we could get who are better than what we have. Can you ?

Well let's face facts
1. SP will be our manager for the long forseeable future he is inspirational and maybe learning his trade.
2. We need no more extra players - we have many options in defence. My choice replace Wilson with Lascelles immediately, Lascelles and Hobbs were the bedrock of our defence until coincidenatly Hobbs was injured
3. There is talent in plenty to be harnessed - Patterson Grant etc
4. The team is not working one way or the other. The manager realises this
5. We are in a hole with FFP and that's fact
6. let's get behind our team. SP said that this happened last season - true BUT this is an almost new team so unless there is a half empty virus that occupies the City ground - certainly it affects some fans. Forest will triumph BUT please no more money thrown at new players

Jeez, Bit of perspective required here!!
We were well on top first half and the game was there for the taking. Thought we actually kept the ball well and Blackburn offered nothing.
Half time and a shocking error from Pearce changing tactics cost us massively. We changed formation and went to a4-1-4-1 which just completely isolated Britt even more and we committed the cardinal sin of sitting back and letting them come on to us. We went good enough defensively and we got punished. Worst second half I have seen for a long time. Instead of saying 'carry on pressing as a 4-4-2' for some reason SP went cautious and it cost us. Fry at isn't a right sided midfielder for Christ sake. Get him up top where he does what he did in the first half. Really poor but a lesson in it for SP.
Let's get our bad patch out the way now and move on. Only takes one win and things turn around.
On a separate note we desperately need an attacking midfielder. Thought tesche and Vaughan both had good games today but they are too similar in style and don't bomb on purporting front two. We need someone to link the midfield and attack, who are just isolated and left to it. And we need that quickly

Keeno, You summed it up completely

It was Darlow's "shocking error" that really cost us. He came out swinging like a rusty gate for Baptiste's goal!

Individual errors cost us that game, starting with the manager with his change in tactics, which enabled Blackburn to charge straight down the middle Mancienne who has been awesome didn't know to stick or twist when the ball was hoofed down the pitch for Rhodes to chase down. 2 games lost but the team has clawed points back from games we would of lost in previous seasons.
It will get better BUT it may get worse before then. But at the end of the day we are not Birmingham City FC think the fans of that club have reasons to be unhappy.
