Paul Henderson - 7 - He made a few good saves, and kept us in the match. Our best player IMO.
Darren Kenton - 5 - Awful, absolute cack. He ran about like a headless chicken. Insisted on hoofing the ball forward and playing out of position.
Paddy McCarthy - 6 - Feel sorry for the skipper, he played well but the performances of the other defenders made him look worse than he was.
Patrick Kisnorbo - 5 - First 10 minutes he looked good, then he lost it. Made silly mistakes including sloppily losing the ball in his own area FFS. Worth a new contract? Tonight's performances doesn't indicate he deserved one.
Richard Stearman - 6 - Average. He was better tonight than he was at Luton, but he looked like he didn't care.
Alan Maybury - 4 - Poor at Luton, poor again tonight. He CANNOT attack, he CANNOT take players on. Play him at right back or not at all.
Danny Tiatto - 5 - He ran.... and that's about it. I really thought that Tiatto was worth keeping - how wrong have I been so far...
Andy Johnson - 6 - He was alright. Did what was expected of him, but he hasn't got the pace and was easily beaten off the ball.
Gareth Williams - 7 - He had a good first half, the only player who looked capable of doing anything. Was unlucky not to score from another free kick.
Iain Hume - 5 - Kept out of the game by the Burnley back four. Struggled in the air from the many hoofs played forward to him by our back 4.
Matty Fryatt - 5 - Had a couple of half decent chances. His frustrations were shown when he was booked for needlessly kicking the ball away.
Stephen Hughes - 5 - Anonymous. Saw him enter the field at the start of the second half, but that's about it.
Elvis Hammond - 5 - Did not a lot down the left. Was unlucky not to score after a good Jensen save.
Josh Low - 6 - Team seemed to liven up following his introduction. Whipped in a couple of good crosses and hit the crossbar.
A very disappointing match, AGAIN. I'm hoping for a LOT more on Saturday.......

No, no, no, no.
How bad do these players need to be FFS before we will give them 2's and 3's
Williams was our best player and he got took off, any reason?

Gareth Williams - 7 - He had a good first half, the only player who looked capable of doing anything. Was unlucky not to score from another free kickDid ok, think he was injured when took off
Iain Hume - 5 - Kept out of the game by the Burnley back four. Struggled in the air from the many hoofs played forward to him by our back 4.Must be dizzy as all he did was run in circles
Matty Fryatt - 5 - Had a couple of half decent chances. His frustrations were shown when he was booked for needlessly kicking the ball away.Annoying performance and got booked for needlessly booting ball away
Stephen Hughes - 5 - Anonymous. Saw him enter the field at the start of the second half, but that's about it.Loves the defence splitting back pass
Elvis Hammond - 5 - Did not a lot down the left. Was unlucky not to score after a good Jensen save.Looked lively helped up the tempo to slow in the last 10 minutes
Josh Low - 6 - Team seemed to liven up following his introduction. Whipped in a couple of good crosses and hit the crossbar.I think the fact that there was actually someone out wide made it seem like he did ok. We are used to just hacking the ball up to no-one

Just arrived Home and doing this while I'm still rational about it.
Henderson - 7 - Did well, seems to have improved on last season.
Kenton - 5 - Not left back, kept on hoofing it endlessly to no one inparticular. Got caught out a few times. This a problem position.
McCarthy - 6 - Steady game. Nothing spectacular. Improvement on Luton.
Kisnorbo - 5 - We looked safer with him being back in the back four. Didn't really show his ability tonight but will be better for the game. Poor game by him as compared with the end of last term.
Stearman - 6 - Looked more like himself tonight. Still needs to improve.
Maybury - 3 - Did nothing of substance at right midfield. Reluctant to push forward to create something, just wanted to cross aimlessly or cut inside on to his wrong foot. On both counts gave the ball away more often than not. An example of why a full back doesn't make a midfielder.
Tiatto - 4 - The only left footer in the team and he insists on cutting inside on his right peg. His passing wasn't good and didn't appear to like running down the left or he hadn't got the legs for it. Sorry to say but he looked past it tonight.
Johnson - 5 - Tried hard but struggled to find an outlet and finished up pumping long balls into the area for our short forwards. Needs some wide men to give him a option.
Williams - 5 - Did some good stuff but nullified that with the bad. Gave the ball away time and time again. Did like trying to win it back again even though it was still in his reach. Probably the most gifted player on the staff but when will realise you need to play for the whole game( first half tonight). He frustrates me so.
Hume - 6 - Work hard without success. He was our only aerial power which shows why the long ball game don't suit us.
Fryatt - 6 - Another hard working performance. Found more room for himself once Josh Low started to work the right side wide.
Hughes - 5 - Nothing special tonight. Struggled to get into the game.
Hammond - 5 - Nothing spectacular but was unlucky not to score.
Low - 7 - The only reason he score this highly because he changed the way we played once came on. Some good work, good crosses. Stopped us being one dimentional. Must be a preference to Maybury.
Dire first half. Crowned by a needless corner in the last seconds form which we conceded. Switched off again, how many times do we do this. Second half was not a great improvement until we brought on a wide man. Lets hope that RK has learnt something from tonight and a better display on Sat.

Refuse to rate them totally undeserving of any mention, however I cannot see how Henderson is getting such praise, last night on a number of occasions he dithered in his area and put the defence and goal under more threat.
Does not command the area, IMO poor performance right the way through the team.

I can't understand why you have all either rated Kisnorbo or McCarthy higher than Kenton. Kenton was by far the best defender we had on the pitch, true he didnt know what to do when he had the ball but he is not a left back! Kisnorbo and Stearman were truly awful. Stearman has one idea, to get the ball and hoof it. Kisnorbo was his old donkey self.
Hendo is useless and does not command his box at all (although he made a fantastic point blank save in the 2nd half)
Andy Johnson is a prick. He obviously thinks he can just stand around the centre circle and not move for the entire game. Williams and Hughes are too lightweight. Tiatto is past it, Maybury is a full back. Hume and Fryatt were crap even though they had no service.
Where was O'Grady? If he is going to persist with the long ball he needs him or MDV.
God damn it - sort it out
