It is tempting to express anxiety over the apparent weakening of the strength following the end-of-season departures. On the other hand the manager's desire to assess the squad and choose additions himself is understandable.

What were the impressions of those who saw the match of his style of play and the gaps of competence in the various areas of the pitch?

Thanks albi

Wright was sent off unjustly.
On both occasions, he got the ball.
The Huddersfield number seven committed a red card tackle and didn’t even get booked.
Yet another shino ref, get used to them again lads.
The midfield were always too far behind JM so he had no support in advanced areas.
We played some half decent football for about twenty minutes without any cutting edge but after that Huddersfield looked comfortable, which to be fair, should be expected.
We seriously need to get some players in to bolster the squad.
Whiteman has a neck injury and wasn’t risked.

Thanks hound

I see Hull City come into today’s match having won 3-0 vs Grimsby, 2-1 vs Lincoln and I think Orient, but having only drawn at Mansfield and lost 2-0 vs FC Amiens (from France’s top flight I assume). So anything less than a solid win today will not look too good for GM!

In.my absence i truly hope that Judas gets the reception he deserves

1-1 at half time.
Joe Wright went off injured early on.
Rovers playing quite well.
Marquis absent for personal reasons.

Hull got a lucky late equaliser after Coppinger had put us ahead with a 25 yard cracker of a goal.
Not a bad overall performance.

Thanks hound.good.old 26.

Good work out, deserved to win it.
Keeper will probably be the new No.1
Back 4 played better as the confidence from the keeper came through. Thus the new Ben and Ben partnership had the chance to run the game. Alfie and Sadlier were ok without really testing their keeper. Copps n Badger on the other hand, did. Two beautifully taken goals too.
Yet again we seemed toothless up front n got bullied again. Que Mr Ward, first challenge left their CB in a heap, followed by a couple of shoulder barges, a few follow throughs, a fore arm smash let them know he was there. Thus it got him a couple of chances, unfortunately their keeper had a very long reach. Sign him on a 12mths contract before some other club does.
Another week to go, let's see who else big Dave brings in.

Thanks. It sounds like a promising performance with some of the gaps usefully plugged and without Marquis too.

Time for further recruitment is running out, but DM seems to be confident that business will be completed in time.

We should definitely sign Ward and Baptiste.

Thanks again
