I'm relieved that he's banned for 4 games.. he could never tackle or defend anyway, lacks pace and his only saving grace is his left foot is decent.. I'm baffled we're paying him 12k a week, low level journeyman Championship player.. I hope Martin can find a decent alternative, someone who is reasonably disciplined.. Bennett, Manning, Fisher need to be binned, bit harsh on Fisher, but he's already gifted teams goals and his all round game is terrible, another keeper who doesn't save many..

Let it sink in, we're paying Bennett and Manning 32k a week, who sanctioned these deals

Bennett has been a decent player throughout his career, but his time has come, I've always liked Manning but he had a shocker for that tackle, his 2nd red as well that's not good enough and Fisher is far to weak a keeper, I'm afraid we gonna need upgrades on the three in the Summer, I'd put Hamer back between the sticks as a stop gap at least he's got the gonads to command his goalmouth and area.

I seriously wouldn't look to hard into tonight's game though, it was always a game to nothing we were doing okish until Manning's stupidity took over and that was that. Put the game to bed now its over and move on.

But it's the same mistakes week in week out, we crumble when teams decide to have a go.. but I'm blaming Martin for the 1st goal tonight, there's times when to play it and when not to.. but we play it regardless.. every f*cking game, we're not Man City FFS, how many times has it got to be said before he learns, if he doesn't learn, we'll struggle again next season

Thought he was gonna give him a yellow but I was about 80yards away. Ref was a bit closer.
 
We'll miss Manning, he's a very good technical footballer and we look a better team when he is part of the three. Problem is, at times, he's more interested in winding up opposition players and looking for confrontation than playing the game. If the roles were reversed he would have been rolling around similarly to Wilson.
 
Relieved he’s banned? He’s been one of our best defenders and him being out and the resulting shuffle will make us weaker. You saw the mess we were in last night. Christie to come back in but we’re still light at the back.

Bennett’s legs have gone by the looks of it.
 
Ref got the card out so fast that nobody had any chance to influence him. From where he was standing, I would have done the same. Awful challenge. Studs up, out of control at full stretch with momentum. Doubt we'll appeal after watching it in the cold light of day which says it all really. Manning was a prick. Decided the game. Our schoolboy defending decided the score.

Edit
🤣🤣 timing is everything. We are appealing it. I hope against hope we win. I'd be amazed and delighted.

As to Bennett. He never recovered from that injury.

Edit 2. Note to self. Always read the thread before posting...

Spot on which begs the question why he came on instead of Burns.

Bennett against the divisions best attack was never going to end well
