As said above the confidence has gone
We need to dig deep now as we are smack dab in the middle
A few wins and we are back in the hunt,a couple more losses and we can easily slip into danger.
9 points off the bottom 3 can soon disappear if we continue to not only lose but ship goals as well.
Well what to do?
First thing to look at is why are we suddenly shipping goals a plenty
Possibly go back to basics,look at what made us so secure and stable back at the start of the season and go back to that place if we can of course.
So that leaves dack
The player has been dipping for a while and now he is pretty much at the bottom confidence wise
Will dropping him help?not so sure but we cannot afford to carry passengers and currently that's what he is.

We have to avoid panic, I reckon. It's also important to remember that we are not the only club in the League! That sounds daft, I know, but seven other teams lost in the latest round of midweek matches and six of them were below us in the table.
By definition, not all of those in the bottom half can go on a good run at the same time.
We need a high-energy first 20 minutes on Saturday - preferably including a goal. Sometimes, you need a lucky break or two as well.
I never believed we could go a whole season without a spell like this; it's just a question of turning it round before a bad run turns into free fall. I don't believe the latter is at all likely.
One big thing, though: we don't seem to have been very good at outmuscling teams in the last couple of months. That's certainly what Wigan did to us.
