My team: McCarthy, Vokins or McQueen(no idea of he's even fit) , Yoshida, Bednarek, Ramsay or Cedric if fit, Redmond, Armstrong, Romeu, Boufal, Djenapo if fit or Adams, Ings.
Your astonishing optimism can be seen as wonderful. Or you should be locked up for the good of all. The jury is still out
Well, Friday night has gone, and there`s nothing we can do about it now. What we need is a repeat of the performance the previous week against Wolves. Ralph should be creating a siege mentality - everyone thinks we are $hit, and we`re going to get another doing - so lets get after them. Ralph seems to have lost his enthusiasm however, and that will rub off on the players.
OK, then, just out of interest and for a bit of balance what would your team be? What is so bad about that side compared to what we have been playing?
The problem for Ralph now (not for this coming week, but the rest of the season) is that our best chance of getting points will come from adopting a very negative style of football. I don’t think that’s in his DNA tbh. Personally I would happily write this season off, and get ready for the Championship.
My footballing weekend just got even worse ! And of course Mo El scored, just to rub it in. Not even the skates letting a 2 goal lead slip yesterday can cheer me up.
I can't agree with that at all. It's only October. You give up when it's mathematically impossible to stay up, and only then. Friday was horrific, but it was a freak result. We drew away to Wolves before that. Sure, our defence is bottom three quality no doubt, but our attack is mid-table quality. If we can buy two decent defenders in January, we will be fine. Go down to the Championship, prepared or not, and you could be stuck down there for decades.
Yeah, I’m not really suggesting the club or team should give up. I have though, and I’m not a person who gives up easily.
