We put out an under strength team which has never played together before. Some of that team had not played any football in anger yet this season and were far from match fit. This was always the plan and was stated as such days before kick off.
Yes there were obvious faults but give Morcambe some credit as they certainly didn't look relegation fodder to me. They played some pretty and effective football and were always a threat. They looked organised and knew what they were doing. I don't think they will finish bottom half and will comfortably stay up.
Get behind the lads and stop undermining them.

They play for a point. They will almost certainly finish bottom half. They looked sharper and better organised than us a lot tonight so some credit where it's due but really it just shows how poor we were.
As for under strength, the two midfielders I'll give you, and white certainly was fully fit. But most of that team know all about each other.

We need to change it. I would love for Dempster to take us to a promotion but I just can't see it happening at all.
He has been backed with some excellent signings and whilst they might not all click straight away, there are some very worrying signs.
The pre season was a shambles. Playing u23 sides instead of proper opposition.
The team look unfit and undisciplined
He has changed the system multiple times already
There is no obvious strategy to how we play.
Hamilton has played 4 positions in 3 games!
Everyone keeps asking why we are letting goals in. Its as clear as day that we are not defending as a team and have tactical problems.
Say what you want about Flitcroft (who made his own mistakes) , but we we're in the top handful of every metric possible last year. We were a couple of injuries and a target man from promotion and only lost out to the other big spenders in the division at the death.
The window is still open and there is still time to turn it around. If I was JR I would be on the phone to Flitcroft offering an apology and asking for him to come back.

Isn’t that what pre-season is for? Oh hang on we didn’t really have one of those so have to waste the first half dozen games working on fitness and tactics, not to mention best formation.
