The comparison between last year's and this year's table at this stage says it all!

W19 D10 L13 in his 42 games so far.

My reason would be we are now relatively stable a fair bet for mid table security not in free fall
The contra is we look miles off a promotion winning team , can’t win at home , signings have added very little and momentum in the team which wins games and loses them has been sacrificed for control
Which reduces loss risk .Risk
for me
would appear on the downside Right now as away form
reliance is precarious
However some of ours in our own hands formation and personnel McLean , clucas . Allen , ince episode add to any team in this league right now

There was a reason I didn't include them. Firstly our own team has been mixed up in them and you can't really vouch for the quality of the opposition. Take nothing away from the victories, as you can only beat what's in front of you, but I think the better comparison is against your peers in the league. Plus the league stats alone in regards to PPG were very favourable towards the back five. |

He just seems less interested in going for it this season
Maybe we’re pacing ourselves 🤷♂️

Reasons to be positive? I don't have Benji's sackcloth and ashes, doom and gloom, misery-fest view of life.  |

He just seems less interested in going for it this season Maybe we’re pacing ourselves 🤷♂️ I think it is a case of being cautious. I'm sure the players he has brought in are purely stop gap measures in essential positions, till he can fully develop the young talent and have the money and room to buy more expensive players. The priority has to be to get the wage bill down and I'm sure he is disappointed the club has failed to get more players out. He is bringing in young players but has to be cautious because they will make mistakes and can be short on stamina. So it is a case introducing one at a time and having a third CB to provide experience. Today's team selection is going to be interesting. I fully expect he will made a few changes to freshen the side and rest players. |

I’ll take that to be fair When he took over we had to start winning straight away. We’ve got a bit more breathing room this season. |
