    Gaffer have some bottle please...

    Since the great game we delivered to Watford only to be stung in the last 18-20 minutes you seem to have lost your way and faith in allowing the team to still commit to a high tempo game...we gained two promotions with this style of play and yes the Championship is a different kettle o' fish but why should we be afraid of anyone? Blackburn..Leeds..Fulham...Norwich...all big clubs but they didn't beat us...

    The 4-5-1 you played today worked up to about 30 minutes first half then we came into our own as the team pressed on and took the game to them...half time and objective reached in nullifying Wednesday...

    At the start of the second half they came at us with a tempo but we stifled them and again sought to attack them...as the game pressed on Weds were definitely there for the taking but why oh why didn't you capitalise and introduce fresh legs to rattle them even more?

    Clarke -Harris and Bowery were chomping at the bit to get at them but you lacked faith in changing our set up...why

    What for saying it like it is and was today...we've lost our gamble instinct and if you thought that was okay today then enjoy the rest of your season...

    Suppose I could had been more vociferous and used the heading ...

    'Change it FFS!
    What's going off that's two games now that we needed a sub or two. We could have won that today if he had changed it'

    Lol


    I agree Brin we are showing the opposition too much respect. However SE is a shrewd cookie, he knows that 3 defeats in a row and our more stupid supporters would have the knives out even more so after being beaten by SWFC. Football is a confidence game and ours was slipping a bit, so perhaps today's moral victory was welcome.

    Attack from the outset, tear their throats out.

    Nothing less than 6 points will do.

    Have to say I'm a bit disappointed we didn't go for it with 20 minutes to go as they were there for the taking. Clarke Harris & Bowery would have had a field day with the way they kept giving possession away.
