Today I thought we would have a chance against one of the few teams that i thought might be as bad as us. They were so much more streetwise. There are not 3 clubs worse than us in this League, Preston maybe but that's it.

I would say it's gone in 1 week as most were positive last Saturday. The last 2 days of the non transfer market & 2 losses in 4 days have put paid to that.

You are right buddy, I was upbeat last week, I thought we could be competitive, but not convinced now sadly.

Don’t fret on what might have been; get firmly behind your team and let them know it!![]()
Clearly, we’re disappointed at today’s result, and Stoke’s bloody good win v (previously high flying) Charlton, doesn’t bode too well for our next game, which is up there. However, we have the talent to cause any team issues on our day, so BBM’s challenge is to get that happening more often and consistently
So far, from what I’ve seen, we need to tighten up in midfield, and (not knocking Robertson the player) get someone in the ‘6’ position who can do the job required
Equally, I didn’t expect too much from us this season, particularly without the additions we thought might come, but the players who remain are capable of keeping us up; they just need to realise it!
