I know it’s my own fault but it’s the expectation that really annoys me. I always turn up, nearly always thinking we can win, only to be disappointed with another abject performance. Owners, managers and players may change but the pattern generally remains the same. How many times have we had two consecutive home matches and I’ve though ‘if we can just get 4 or 6 points from these two games we’ll be fine’ only to see us fail miserably. The best was when we had Paul Hart as caretaker manager and we had a few ‘winnable’ home matches to try and avoid relegation, only for him to play one up front to protect the point!!
It’s like tonight. I will actually tune in expecting us to win. I just can’t help myself!!
