Wilks has 1 goal...weird how people get some fascination with certain players who leave.
Bamford did everything but score today...he needs to be clinical. 2 great chances today and he should have wanted the penalty.
We need a Beckford kind of striker, Bamford is a fairy.
Agree with this, although I would say play Eddie upfront with Bamford rather than bin him altogether.
Bigger picture - sides like wolves, Norwich, sheff u, Villa all gone up playing same style of football they did in championship. .. SHOULD we go up we’ll do the same... we miss far far far too many chances. Do that in premiership and you’ll end up with embarrassment... conversion rate is a huge worry.
Performances was first class - last ball and finishing leaves a lot to be desired.
We should not play at home anymore ! 2 more points dropped, the way it's going we won't go up.

Game of two halves?
A bit like the play-off semis.
Also the way we play makes it pivotal we take advantage in first half. We’ve conceded most goals this season from 75 mins onwards.... can’t continue with the intensity we play with for 90. Got to get that cushion first 60 mins, then sit back and hit on counter. If we miss chances every 3 minutes that goes out of the window and we are fekked

maybe we could have the stadium condemned.
Donn is a Kant and Ellando is clueless
Gelderd82 how many pints have you had to drown your sorrows ! ?
Hope results go our way this evening...
Have you even watched Bamford this season? A fairy isn’t even close to a good description
We have absolutely everything and make an unbelievable number of chances - we just don;t have that final touch whether it be the last pass, the cross or the attempt on goal.
So damn frustrating.
But ... would I change the way we play? No chance.
I would consider Roberts to start in place of Bam - Bam is doing everything right, absolutely everything, but score. Then again, no-one else did today either!
2 points per game is what we need and we are getting that. Just frustrating that we have dropped points v Swansea, Forest and Derby at the death when we should have been out of sight in all three

Yeah - he keeps missing chances !!
I think the way the crowd react the Bamford at the games says it all about what people who go to games think....he’s been fantastic every game.
We lost today because of Klich’s penalty and that we sat back for 20 minutes.
Without Bamford today the goal doesn’t happen. Without him the penalty isn’t given.
Give him a break. Yes he misses a few but many strikers do if they are good enough to get in position to score.
Two up top for me at home would have buried this lot today.

Agreed. Bringing on Douglas said it all to me. He was hoping 1-0 would do but we are vulnerable in the last 15 minutes - like most teams at 1-0.
Disappointing we didn't finish them off, but we're still top of the table.
Drawing to the worst team ive seen at ER since Burton Albion. Embarrassing and we aint going up playing like that.
At least results in other matches went our way.

A good point. But still... Atm, we're averaging just 8 home wins this season out of 23. Not enough, we cant keep relying on away form
I guess it's going to be a problem at home when you need 15-20 efforts on goal to get one and the opposition score from pretty much their only chance.
Inevitability a lot of focus on starting Bamford,Eddie or both.For me a bigger question,bearing in mind his previous home games had panned out,is why Harrison keeps starting instead of Costa?
Stoops is living up to his name saying no goal without Bamford if a decent striker was playing they'd have got 2 or 3 goals and to thosewho say we are top are talking rubbish we should be 5 points clear.

It's not rubbish stating we're top, it's a fact. If you think we're playing well enough to be 5 points clear, then we're doing sommat right.
If we keep on keeping on the goals (and points) will come.
