Time for a bit of honesty without the rose tinted glasses.
This squad, including the management and coaching staff, are quite simply not good enough to be serious promotion candidates. Baffling decisions on selection and lack of substitutions, when quite obviously some players are nothing short of useless. There’s a reason why Armstrong couldn’t get a game in the worst premier league team in years, but we’re giving him game time and might as well be playing with 10 men. If by some miracle we make the the playoffs we are going to be up against one of the current top four who are quite simply way better than we are, and even then if we were to fluke promotion we would need a completely new stating 11 and, I hate to say it, a much better manager/coach otherwise we would be the next Southampton.
I know many of you will not agree and come back with ‘give TM time’ ‘it’s not his squad’ etc. which is fine. But as I said , take off the rose tinted glasses.
