Clearly we’re lacking in attacking options and it’s stretching the squad right now but we’re still a home game v reading from 3rd.
The performances have been broadly consistent (Saturday aside), tight defensively, close games where we’ve got some good results was never under an illusion we were better than that but it’s not like any other teams around us (aside from the top two) are any better.
I think we need to take a view whilst looking at other teams too. In terms of the manager I feel he’s made a few mistakes lately but I don’t mind the experimentation, I think he needs to adapt the tactics somewhat at home more than he’s doing, we’re too slow going forward and too much aimless crossing. This can easily be adjusted though.
Be good to win Saturday and everyone to calm down
This right here /\
Other teams have blips who make the play offs, but many of them stick by their manager and back him. Jeez even Cloughie had bad runs throughout his tenure. This is a non conversation. Sabri has shown he has the know how up to this point. Of course Saturday was painful and horrible to watch.
It is when we hit adversity that we find out more about ourselves, as a team, coach, club and supporters. Personally, I sang all through 2nd half alongside crazy seat banging guy in A block, kind of gallows humour. Equally, I totally understand and do not judge those who left at HT, I was close.
I really feel we may have stumbled across the right man for us, but it takes time. How well he did so far is amazing from a standing start. December will be rubbish then we will see, maybe a Villa style surge? Here's hoping.
