I`ve been reflecting

[needle]

Given it a couple of hours since getting home from the game to reflect on it , I didn`t want to appear too eager to criticise .
However today was pretty awful , OK 1st half there wasn`t much in it but also both sides looked a little hesitant and reluctant to have a proper go , if either had then they could possibly have won it 1st half .
Second half we were so poor , disorganised and no threat at all .
I fear for us , we don`t look like a team who has goals in it and we have a mistake prone defence who always look likely to conceding at least 1 (normally it is just 1)
Tuesday night and the upcoming MKD games are massive and we need 6 points from them .

No doubt you will be saving your best performance against little old Burnley.. Might be a bit iffy but you will not go down..

Those six points are looking essential, Needle. It's not just the points in themselves. It's the confidence that two wins would bring. We have had a lot of optimism because of the Cup wins and the new signings, but "progress" is a little harder to spot.
The comparison now looks li

Why no mention of our absentees? Annoying as FCK.

Because you said we couldnt mention rhodes ..

Yesterday was the first time I felt concerned we could drop
against Boro apparently we played them off the park yesterday just one week later we looked completely devoid of confidence
now I will agree with saxo to a certain degree the people dropping out would of effected the game plan but the players out there looked tentative and nervous
if you like a relegation battle
Tuesday is about as crucial a match as your ever going to get a loss isn't an option.

Haha.

I don`t mention the absentees because they werent playing . Forget Rhodes he`s gone , somebody else`s concern .

[robinrover]

I think we are just a win away from our fortunes changing
forget the cup victories we need a league win it has been a while now and regardless of your abilities it weighs on your mind
which is why we are served up tentative performances
Boro was a one off brought on by a certain Mr Rhodes just signing for them
we are in a dogfight the sooner these players realise this the sooner we can put up a fight to survive
February was the bad month in terms of fixtures and we need to make sure we start picking up some points even if they are draws
if we are to stay in this league we cannot repeat yesterday's second half no show.

Not the first time this season weve had a "no show". Whilst I understand PL is trying to make us difficult to beat(?)with a defensive-minded set-up packed with experienced oldsters,who will no doubt be occupying the treatment table a lot where are the goals supposed to come from? Watt apart,who needs some time and is a young player,I dont think Graham,Jackson and Brown have scored ONCE all season between them. Is this really sensible?
