    I had to take a temporary job on which involves one in three Saturdays, so it’s inevitable some will drop on home games. Thankfully the next Saturday I work we’re playing on the Sunday against Sheff Utd.

    If today is anything like Wednesday night I’m not so sure I’m that gutted… But it doesn’t feel right missing a Saturday home game.

    At least this new job means I won’t miss the midweek games all the time like I used to.

    I’m sure there’ll be plenty of reports but I will be interested to hear if the atmosphere is starting to get toxic, Schopp has few fans left who think he should still be in the role.

    As we are at least two fans down with me and the boy missing, and likely a few more missing after being disillusioned on Wednesday, the rest of you need to get behind them.

    I strongly feel Schopp has to go - but it wouldn’t stop me supporting him and the team as soon as they cross the white line, whilst he’s here I want him to succeed.

    Get behind ‘em for me.

    Agreed, get behind the team.

    For me a change of coach needs to be made in the international break. It is absolutely counter productive having a go at the players on the pitch.

    It will certainly be toxic ,there's no doubt definitely from the North stand.

    Same here had a tooth out yesterday, in quite bit of pain to be honest. Going to be windy so don't want to expose my extremely swelled gum to it..

    Feel free to use to this story in any response to todays performance. After Wednesday night I'm not exactly expecting much today.

    Though a win I'm sure would ease the pain and swelling. Football result pseudo science is real.

    Not going due to a combination of having a cold and conserving the half tank of fuel I have remaining, rather than doing a 50 mile round trip.

    I'm not optimistic that Schopp will do anything to inspire confidence with his selections and tactics today. If things go badly I expect a toxic atmosphere, so am not too disappointed to be giving it a miss. I'm sure those sat around me wouldn't have thanked me from bringing the man-flu near them either.

    Not looking forward to getting soaked but ever hopeful of a win. Today hadn't started well in any case, so hopefully things can only get better on the football front!

    I won’t be there today either as I am away celebrating our wedding anniversary. Hoping for a good 3 points, but not convinced

    Unfortunately I won’t be attending today as I’m in Germany for work.

    Please, please, please get behind them and give them everything you’ve got. Those lads and the coach really need us more than ever at the moment.
