PP effectively had 3 choices at LWB: JD, McAlinden or the young lad who got slated during the Port Vale game.

I gave JD an extra point because he was played out of position.

Dalby was ineffective; as was Mullin.

Lots of ineffective performances yesterday, hence the defeat.

Should have been a draw; shoulda won the Lottery.

Start again on Saturday!

Inconsistency is an issue but still 4th and same points as Notts County in 3rd.

Certainly missed Mendy and McClean yesterday.

Yes, they were ineffective because Accrington was effecttive.

We did and as well as Forde played (he was the only one), we also missed Barnett's attack skills down the right to open them up and his pinpoint crosses. We had nothing down the flanks. The forwards were feeding off scraps.

Agree with all of the above - especially the bit about the wings.....

this statement is almost as baffling as the ref's decision to award that penalty against us yesterday .... up until yesterday , we've been one of the most consistent teams in the league - we've lost 3 games out of 18 ! how is that inconsistent ?

How many have we drawn?

It's just an opinion - sometimes we play out of our skins and others we just have poor games.
