at this latter stage of the season, and a bulk of that is due to the pressure of being where they are with 4 or 5 games too go.
We are still in a VERY good position to gain automatic promotion, and wins at coventry's Ricoh Arena and bristol city at the brit, could paint a completely different picture.
Last-night we were poor, and there is so many if's and but's, should pulis have started with fuller? did griff and pugh merit first-team starts? but in all honesty that is now irrelevant.
Last-night we were far to one-dimensional and looked short of ideas in the final third, the only person who looked like unlocked there in all honesty good defensive unit, was fuller.
The defence was static, and i think last-night was a classic example of how zonal marking can cost you, we gave them far too much room and they exploited it, notably down the flanks with moses and soares.
Where making hard work of this, but let's be honest did anyone expect us to cruise happily into the prem?
It's now a case of which side can hold there nerve, 5 sides can all reach automatic places, and in my opinion if one side hits form and consistancy they will definately get a automatic place, because so many teams around us are dropping points.
Like TP or Not he's done a good job this season, we've achieved thus far more than what any expected, and whether you like TP and certain players or not, support the club and believe, because our title race is still very much alive, despite the set-back last-night.

Agreed. On the positive side we have a big squad, good players at this level, and relatively easy remaining games. Keep a sense of perspecive, forget the manic mood swings, keep the faith and see what happens.

Blackpool were supposed to be easy meat, didn't turn out that way though did it.
