Smith hasn't improved us though and we have got rapidly worse. He's had all pre-season to sort stuff out but we looked worse last night than we did for most of last season.

Pele banned until the Good Friday derby do we think?

5/6 MATCHES EASILY anything less is a bonus. IMO, Ligi should be SOS but probably be 2 matches, Herman should be ok probably get 1

To add to the woes there seemed to be a disturbance in the East corner last night. Anyone witness what went on?

Yup and he's instantly earned himself a reputation. Easily wound up. This won't be the only red card or ban he'll receive this season.

I agree he hasn't improved us but calling for him to be sacked at this stage is premature.

With the quality of the players we have I'm not convinced he or anyone else can do so but at least give him more time.

Disappointing because he looked decent against Wigan. They struggled to get him to ground and he played big minutes (granted with short 5 minute breaks thrown in).
Anybody who watched last night will now have a very bad opinion of him but didn't see the good stuff he did only 2 weeks earlier. Let himself down big time.

Wasn't impressed with the new DJ by the way. What a bloody racket.

If he learns from his stupidity I think he could be a very good player for us. He probably has never played in a game like that before and the occasion got to him. I was surprised he started and the number of minutes he played. The Canterbury fans said he blows out of his ar#e after a couple of minutes.
