Didn't play like this against Millwall for 70 minutes, against Derby or against Wrexham
Derby could’ve and should’ve buried us if their finishing was better. We almost crumbled against Wrexham too. Millwall and Preston are the only games we’ve actually played well in for large spells. Two games in nearly three months.

We’re trying to limp over the finish line. Do they think we can play this poorly for months and suddenly turn it on for three games in May?
 
5 shots - 2 on target for us. (13 with 5 on target for them)
30% possession

65% passing accuracy
 
Could be worse, WBA should really have had 2 or 3. Smash and grab goal straight after halftime then backs to the wall?
 
Derby could’ve and should’ve buried us if their finishing was better. We almost crumbled against Wrexham too. Millwall and Preston are the only games we’ve actually played well in for large spells. Two games in nearly three months.
Did Wrexham even record another shot on target after their goal?

I love Serge, but FFS man, going to places and perpetually setting up to rely on breakaways from 35% possession is not going to get it done. He has a lot to learn as a manager. And who was saying the GK coach is adored and thank goodness Holden never left to Turkey? Do the players think they're safe and playing for position..?. Think again!!@!@
We've seen time and again that the possession stats don't mean **** - I watched Lincoln again today, with almost 71% of the possession Stockport played them off the park but Lincoln still won 3-1 they had similar stats away at top of the table Cardiff and won 2-0, it's what they do when they have the 30-32% of the ball - it's what we're NOT doing at the mo.
 
West Brom who haven’t won a game this calendar year are beating us and cruising because Sergej told them to park the bus and hoof it long to nobody and Pandur can’t kick a ball properly if his life depended on it <laugh>
 
Is he? The goal kick was definitely poor but he's made a couple of smart saves since then and stopped one just under the crossbar.
He's looked like a rabbit caught in a set of headlights at least twice for me and from memory he's flapped at the ball at least once.

Like I say,I never involve myself in pile-ons but he's looked miles off it today but that also applies to the 10 in front of him(now 9).
