Disappointing result tonight chaps, but they're all tough games in this league and we've added to our points tally and kept the unbeaten run going. But we've now reached 14 points by the end of September, our points total on 9th November last year. A year ago tomorrow we were stuffed 4-0 at Burnley and facing the prospect of a season long struggle against relegation. Now we are in the upper reaches of the table, and although not yet the finished article and things to improve on things look a lot better than they did that night at Turf Moor. This is a clear sign of the progress the club is making, we might not be firing on all cylinders on the pitch but we're gettign there as a team. Maybe it's time those people calling for Pearson's head on Blunderside thought about that.
That team at Turf Moor has just gone one better and won 5-1.. they must like this time of year.. as for City, Nige is on the radio right now and he's not too dissapointed, thinks Donny upped it, first half was best of season, it will come he says.. says he believes in the players..
This and the Donny match thread are similar, as you said, so i'm gunna repeat myself again. Trouble is some people have unrealistic expectations. We're not going to win every game. You've just got to take something/ grind out a result even when you're playing well. At the end of the season you might say we've done that at Donny. It wasn't going to be a 4 nil win, so i dunno why anybody predicted it. Going up is a step too far, i think. But you never know.
