I find myself sitting here bitterly disappointed (as I always am when we lose) but having thoughts of ‘oh well, at least it was only by 2 goals’). Even sadder I would have thought long and hard about taking that result before kick off.

For a club our size, this isn’t good enough. The saving mercy is Rafa - if we didn’t have him we’d be below WBA now - I have no doubt of that. Our players aren’t good enough for this level and they’re running on fumes to keep our heads above water.

It’s going to be an exciting run in but , for us, it shouldn’t have to be. I just hope we look back at these last few games and remember it as a turning point in the clubs history: permanence in the PL, sale of the club and investment in our club to the level it deserves.
