Really feel for those that went to Brentford and I know myself that midweek thrashings are no fun (southampton 5-1 Town).
It's time the club woke up and realised what's happening.
After our January sales we left ourselves with a very thin squad of players capable of playing at this level and last night showed it yet again. Jake Carroll coming on at half time, a player not seen in Town colours since Hull City away in the league cup on 24Sept 2013...can you hear that scrapping noise? It's the bottom of the Town barrel. What was his first contribution, getting skinned in the lead up to Brentfords second goal.
Only Town can sell....no sorry give away a left back in the transfer window and leave us with node cent cover and don't buy into this family reasons either, Dean told us on the way to norwich he couldn't wait to get rid of him.
Anyway back to the game or should I say the great Chris Powell post match comments.
"It could've been more" that's right Chris, I listend to the first 10 and it could've been 3 but for Alex Smithies who by 11 minutes was already a dead cert for the Town MOTM
"Players are good enough" clearly they aren't because they are too inconsistent at this level. Just because the likes of Blackpool and Millwall fail every week to catch us up doesn't mean these players are good enough. As I've said before the squad is poorer now than it was in August, too many sales and not enough quality fetched in...no scrap that, Town always wheel out the mantra of 'we will only bring players in who are better than we already have'. And yet the 2 players we did bring in are bit part players who half the time can't get in the team, although some would say they shouldn't be anywhere near it anyway.
"We look like we may score 3 and concede 4" it's rare I've thought we'll see Town lose 3-4 this season, although he is right just not in the same game. On 10 occasions this season we have conceded 3 or more goals
0-4 Bournemouth
3-1 Cardiff
4-2 Watford (who had 10 men)
3-0 Leeds
3-2 Derby
3-1 Fulham
5-0 Norwich (we did have 10 men)
1-2 Wolves
3-0 Charlton
4-1 Brentford
We shouldn't be getting spanked by a fair few of those teams, especially when we set out to be defensive in some of those games.
on the other hand we have only managed to score 3 or more on 5 occasions
1-3 Wolves
4-2 Blackpool
3-0 Forest
3-1 Watford
1-3 Millwall
A couple of decent results but the other 3 were against very very poor teams.
60goals conceded so far tells the story that this defence isn't good enough, Another summer of signings in Poundland approaches as we attempt to fall lucky on the right players at bargain basement prices...we won't though
