    We’ve had a good run over Xmas but we’ve still got a long way to go end up in the top 6.

    Yes - and I really hope we do.
    We need to STAY in there until the end of the season though. There are a lot of clubs around us on points - the table can turn on 1 or 2 sets of results.

    There’s a long way to go yet. The championship is so tight. It’ll only take a couple of bad results and we’ll be back down in 16th or 17th. Enjoy it, but don’t count your chickens

    We are 4 points off 5th place, and likewise 4 points off 15th place, it’s nuts.

    Besides it’s years since we last won 3 on the bounce, I think Jesus was a child the last time we won 4 on the trot <laugh><laugh>

    Remember we were doing really well under LJ - we were second in the table, just beaten Man U in the cup - all the pundits were bigging us up………- then it all went Pete Tong from the Wolves game <grr>………

    Started with a fielding challenge if I remember correctly, outside the box wasn’t it?

    It depends who you want to blame.
    I blamed LJ - (seriously) - he pushed Flint forward which left us short at the back - presumably searching for a second goal to kill the game off. We didn’t need to do that - we were 1-0 up against 10 men. We should have made them commit men forward and hit them on the break.
    Frankie had a wild moment and from that point we were broken. Without condoning his costly error, he wouldn’t have thought about doing what he did if the 4 defenders were covering where they should have been.

    I say it as I saw it Supcon!!
    I defend LJ on here a lot, but on that particular occasion IMHO he got it wrong.
