Mason interview after the match is all about we have so many injured or out sick and he could not play substitutions as team is running on fumes.
He also said, and he was right, we had chances in the second half, and did it take them and so can’t expect to win games if not clinical.

I can’t see much more than one or two loans in January as we are cash strapped as well as talent free.

It needs an ‘anti football’ approach or new ma to ensure we don’t start next season in Division One.

Past 6 games 4 lost only Oxford have a worse record

Appreciate there’s scepticism about xG, but apparently we have conceded 5.6 goals more than expected this year, the worst in the league (Wildsmith twice as bad per match compared to Griffiths). Also underperforming at the other end (2.7 down - Price and Diakite worst offenders). On expected points, we “should” be 6th - only Southampton and Blues underperforming more.

Stats obviously say nothing about the lack of substitutions, lack of energy, Diakite’s inability to pass before the goal (after a good tackle in fairness), countless other errors, and refereeing errors. So Mason might say he’s unlucky, but if anything is consistent, it’s underperformance
