I appreciate that we have some key players missing but this was an unacceptable performance. We need players to step up and fight for the cause. Unfortunately what we have left is a lightweight, powderpuff squad. We lost the physical battle all over the park.

Five home defeats now with the winning goals coming after the 80th minute in four of them is becoming very hard to take. Nowhere near good enough and I am worried for the season at present.

@blackshawpaul

Plenty to say after recent weeks but a particular problem on the pitch is the midfield. Where is the creativity from the middle of the park? Put us under pressure and we are unable to find a creative pass. There is little to no goal threat coming from them and we need more.

@mwelly7

A desperately poor display. We handed the initiative to Blackpool going one up front which doesn’t play to Coxy’s strengths. We were disjointed, lacked any thought, patience, discipline and creativity. Dru’s injury and Turner’s sending off capped an awful afternoon.

@kristofshrimper

Lacking discipline. Not only with senior players getting sent off for foolishness but all the late goals we are conceding. Blackpool deserved to win.

@allatseafanzine

Injuries aren’t an excuse for players not competing or being able to pass the ball to a team-mate. Now the choice of starting 11, speechless! One up top at home, shocking. That, with the Crawley performance would have had fans calling for the previous manager’s neck. Awful, just awful.

@harrisufc

We have a massive problem with scoring and it’s likely to last for months. Coker’s runs and crosses were crucial. McLaughlin needs another run out as his assist record is impressive. The January window usually only results in loan, worrying times.

@shrimpersaway

This is possibly a copy and paste from last week. Once again not ruthless and once again punished. Got back in the game and conceded so cheaply. I make it at least five games where we have conceded and lost points after the 80th minute.

@bradcooper71696

Gone back in time to the end of the Brown era. We haven’t got a clue how to defend and we’re equally as clueless in attack. Long ball to Cox and McCoulsky against three massive centre backs is just plain dumb.

@scottwallace_

I think Powell is lucky that there is so much goodwill towards him as the squad he has put together, the tactics and performances are much below what was expected. Injuries have been bad but we should still be better than this.
