…..you know the one where we are looking a decent proposition,unbeaten in the league in 7,an attacking outlook with a positive manager and a definite air of expectation around the club,up against an average Brum side at home…..only to go and fuck it up and a return to the “well we are still shite,he’s got a lot to do,we need a this or a that etc etc…..” Jesus hates Christ I really do hope so. I really wish you hadn’t written this mate.

Just so frustrating.
We’ve had to put up with some rubbish over the last 6 years that’s for sure.
Particularly at home. Our record is abysmal.

Yes, we played some nice football at times particularly involving Burger and Bae but we lost again and most of the team were shite. Absolutely no cutting edge of course and until we address that we will stumble around this table for a long time.

Turns out it was September v Watford

Typically when we do lose one after a semi decent run, we normally go on a bad run and totally fold - so still time to buck the trend.
We murdered Brum on every stat bar the one that counted - those are stats we have not seen for a while at Brit or whatever its called these days - so hope springs eternal.
We need some defenders in the window though - or we will continue to struggle at home where the quality of the back 4 is exposed a little more - can't be playing square pegs and not have a solitary viable left-sided defender in the squad.
That said, we have been playing square pegs in defence since our relegation from the prem season, so I don't expect anything to change

I am getting bored of this 7 league games unbeaten run. It's time to add to a win and make it a winning streak ! I believe in this managers ability,which is something I have not said since we left the premiership. Well we're still struggling to score goals except luckily against Birmingham and our home record is still lousy so you can't be over confident. I certainly won't be walking down to the ground with high expectations just yet. Hate to say I told you so. The game produced an average number of goals for the league this season and we scored our average number of goals for a game this season thus we got nothing from it. Apart from that I quite enjoyed it, we’re actually pretty decent apart from being able to stick the ball in the net.

Is that a lyric to a song? (And am I going to look stupid asking this?) Reminds me of a Zutons lyric: You will you won't, You do you don't, You're saying you will But you know you won't. On hindsight, those lyrics some up our past managers.

Guess not Home form is shocking, has been for a couple of years now Don't worry. You will rebound comfortably into form this weekend with a 3-0 win at our place. I'm expecting a good old tonking, probably with Gooch scoring the winner. Amazing how fortunes can turn around in a matter of weeks.

We seem to do better away and if we score firs5 the atmosphere in the home coukd turn toxic On the otherhand Beale will have you well up for it given the amount he is copping this week And the Stoke City charity bus often obliges!

We are normally well renowned for being the club that plays teams and/or players back into form, but with the absolute mess that the club has become in the last 6 weeks I could honestly see a repeat of last season's 1-5..........without the 1 We've been turned from a young vibrant attacking team with plenty of flair to a no-paced, sideways passing, non-pressing dull excuse for a team. That's all on the Head Coach and his bessie mate DoF. Gone are the days where managers were selected on ability and previous experience, now you throw a powerpoint together, chuck in a few buzzwords and you get the job. Get an early goal on Sat and it's game over.

Get an early goal on Sat and it's game over. I watched the Hull game and you were all over them It was the worst game of football I've ever witnessed live. The stats may say we had more corners (every one of which hit the first man) and more possession (sideways and backwards passes) but we never threatened. Genuinely disgusting performance, albeit Hull weren't much better. The worry (for me) is that this is a downward trend. We are getting worse (in terms of performance) with each game. I'm not a reactionary person, but I've seen enough in 7 games to want the bloke sacked.
