I had been excited at the start of the season. Championship 'Proper' football, a positive manager and good results.

But as the season has unfolded I am becoming less cheerful. Despite being in 3rd place I am getting tired of the West Brom style and especially the inflexibility, unwillingness to do something different when, as is increasingly the case, the opposition cancel out our one and only style of play.

Then the darkness of the Transfer Window creeps closer like a death cloud - I want to be proven wrong but I suspect we will lose Johnstone and gain diddly squat and then it will be a lumber-some crawl to the end of season and at best a outside chance of a play-off spot.
