Let's be frank, the 1st half last night was garbage and the 2nd half, although an improvement, was still mediocre at best.
BUT
We're missing key players due to injury who would have made a difference.
We're playing a bunch of "not-ready" young players (Smalley, Allesandra to name 2) as a result.
We're still lacking creativity in the squad, even if we didn't have any injuries. We've no Wellens replacement yet.
We've got a manager who is learning his trade and, yes, he WILL FECK IT UP SOMETIMES!!!!
I gave up on promotion weeks ago cos it was obvious we are not good enough and we are not capable of putting together a consistent run of performances to secure enough points. In my view, we are a worse team than last season primarily because we have no creativity and lack a consistent goalscorer. Some of it could be lain at Shez's door cos he signed some of them, but I'll refer you to my fourth point above.
Will he get it right? Only time will tell, and if we're sat here a year from now and things haven't improved then maybe it will be time for Shez to go. Let's wait and see, shall we? Or shall we have a Ronnie Moore-style season ticket boycott and force him out in the summer?
