It’s so bloody obvious to see week in week out!! Snodgrass is decent so that’s encouraging but we need somebody to score! I hope the players mentioned above never ever go anywhere near the side again!!

A 20 year old kid on loan has drive - fight and energy every game. To say the others have a fragile mentality is an insult to him!

Luck is made! Sheffield United could say they were unlucky not to easily beat us as they missed four sitters!!! How we won that game makes us the luckiest team around on that weekend!!! So please don’t anyone say we have been unlucky overall as it’s bulls hit!
We are simply, so far, not good enough. Yes, we have had decisions go against us, but vs Sheffield U we were extremely lucky to get the win, a win they deserved. Vs Brighton away, we could easily have been down with more than one goal at half time, Liverpool a good point of course but with ”business as usual” in that first half etc...

5-6 new good players (and I don’t include reserves GK in that), and it might be possible, maybe... 😬
