Embarrassed today so glad wasnt there think its obvious what needs to be done now.

Do you think it would help?

I’d back you but frankly I can’t see it making any difference.

Toulouse won’t implode and we already have.

No it wasn’t. It was bad but that was a cowardly capitulation from the remaining 12.

Yes it was the usual stupid indiscipline came to the fore then the attack kicking early and forcing it on other sets sorry but rubbish play need some composure we are trying to score every play

Having our strongest defenders in Hood and Whitbread off the field was poor too. When they came back on their was a marked improvement in defence but the damage was done.

Though second was a very bad call from the ref if the guy had not slipped arm would have hit him well away from is head but still a dismal performance

The damage was done on the 40th minute unfortunately.

Why you’ve done nothing wrong other than support a group of wage stealers.

Miller kicking on the 3rd in opposition 10 in last 10 minutes was criminal. His immediate response to not knowing what to do is put the boot to it.

Discipline was poor but the 12 players should have done better as a collective.

Ref gave a penalty for a high shot that never was. Bott holding top of his head like he was shot then moved his hand on floor. Replay shows the slightest brush across the cheek with minimal if any contact.

What I did not agree with was the Toulouse try. Yes Miller pulled at it but after that the ball fired forwards OFF the Toulouse players arm. Surely that’s a knock on? I could not understand how I’m a million years that would be given. It slightly bobbled then got pushed forwards by TO. Can anyone explain that?

We could have been level last few mins but for that. Not that we deserved it.
