[Washington]

In spite of the obvious disappointment from today we probably did better than all or most of us predicted at this time last year following relegation. Not withstanding the bingo selections and points given away late on in games over the course of the season I think we have played some attractive football a lot of the time especially since Christmas.

Todays starting team was probably one most of us would have picked too but for some reason there was a lot of head tennis again like Wycombe forced us to do. Only the players know if that is down to the Sunderland pressure or game pressure on them but if we had played along the ground more like we did for the goal the outcome might have been different.

It will be interesting to see how the recruitment goes but at least now we are less f***ed than we might have been by losing in the final and then having to look for L1 targets rather than championship players. With luck we will find some good young premier players to loan and it may be the time Fizz and Dennis come into their own next season
