The Usual Overreactions


Recommended Posts

Here we go again....two defeats on the trot (not unheard of for any team), and that's the end of the season.

 

Still in the top 6 and with a useful goal difference.  Blimey, WBA lost to M'bro today, the much-vaunted Brentford and Preston lost too.

 

Perspective, boys, please.  In case you've forgotten, this is football - and we go again after the cup-tie.

 

Firdst defeat at home since August - can't say that's bad, for a team that isn't exactly Liverpool.

If we somehow manage to fluke ourselves into the top 6, what's the point? 

 

We all know this mentally weak team will collapse under the pressure and bottle it?

 

Sick of them. Every single one of them.

Even after the last couple of poor performances, we are still higher than I was expecting us to be and it has raised hopes beyond what we are likely capable of with this squad. Fletcher has played such a huge role in elevating us to half a season of over-achievement. If he does leave in the transfer window, and we don't have any funds to replace him, the second half of the season could be grim indeed. And it's so close in the top half of the table, it wouldn't take too much of a decline for us to drop quickly out of contention.

I think the frustrating thing is that if we had taken all six points from our last two games then we would have been just five points from an automatic promotion place - five points with WBA and Leeds wobbling a bit........

 

This always happens. I don't know if it's the managers or the players, but every time we put a decent run together and it looks like we could put some distance between ourselves and the chasing pack, we can never push on. We blow it. Every time.

 

Something is missing. Maybe we need more leaders on the pitch.

Its not an overreaction when folk see the team sheet and say "Reach and Murphy will end up wide in the same place"...Then lo and behold....

Fans shouldn't have the nous to work that out so quickly.

 


I hate having a go at managers, especially ones who’ve not been in the job long and haven’t been able to bring their own players in. But Monk going back to 433 disappointed me to say the least. It doesn’t work. We don’t have the players for it. Surely Winnall and Rhodes deserved a try together. 
 

In the long term I still think Monk can do well here, let’s also not forget he’s got very limited options atm.
