We have played alright but its the same old story I'm afraid, cant score then concede.
Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

Thing is though our performances are not consistently shit, in fact it's probably the opposite!! We have created more chances than just about any team but when you don't take them it just puts more pressure on the defense to be perfect every game, and they haven't been!! We have seen more defensively poor goals against us than we did last season and while clubs seem to have us sussed by sitting back and hitting us on the break, if we took just one of our chances first it would cause a completely different game. It's in front of goal where our problems are.

I tried to explain just after pre-season that people would need to take those blue tinted glasses off. Not enough was done to meet the criteria set for this season.
I can't say it enough, the squad over-achieved last season, so believing just a minor tweak here and there is all it takes is proving costly. 10M sounds like a lot but it's FA these days, we needed to be much more ambitious in our recruitment.
When you half arse it, this is the result I'm afraid. A top 10 finish will be pretty much on the cards but don't delude yourselves into thinking promotion is happening.

We had a crap corner and passed it backwards to the halfway line..

This is going to be a long half
