I would not complain at all about today in isolation, after that very good display and win last week. There has been no moaning and groaning this past week, but as soon as we lose, it starts all over again. I think you have to take the rough with the smooth. If our home record was equally as bad as how we perform away from Gresty Road, then I would agree that blanket criticism is justified. However, with just two losses on home soil, things are not quite as black as some people paint them. 5 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the league at the Alexandra Stadium are just about keeping our heads above water. Now for Cambridge on Tuesday. Surely if we play as well as we did against Tranmere and Crawley today, then lady luck will indeed shine on us and bring all three points our way.
