No pressure at all. That's how you win promotion and titles.

Yes, but they got beat 2-0 not so long ago and we are closing in on them over these last couple of months.

There might not be long enough left to pass them but that's ok 😀

Meltdown time
The world is ending because we drew with Gillingham
Looking through faceache and it was like their wife had left home and at the same time their house went up in flames
Now I am not too happy with the result but let's not press the destruct button
5 games left 4 wins and we are up.

We've struggled since the Bradford game. A large slice of luck until tonight has papered over the cracks.

[robinrover]

Not going to lie saxo we have struggled but remained unbeaten through it all
Wigan have lost and I feel they will lose again before the end of the season.

[Saxo1man41]

Southend have show other teams how to play against us, and Mowbray is clueless to do anything about it.

Goosed.

The Bradford game was only 2 weeks ago. And we have won one drawn one since.

Not the end of the world

If tonight we peppered their goal and was unlucky, I'd agree with you, but gills were comfortable. Other teams will notice how they contained us easily and follow suit. We are then relying on Mr Mowbray to change approach. To me, he looks stumped.

OK, then, Saxo. What SHOULD he have done? We started with our best three up front. He then tried introducing other attacking/creative players - in Payne, Whittingham and Samuel.
What was the magic trick he forgot to play, remembering that we had 63% of the possession?
This is football: it never did go like clockwork, and it never will. If we win three-nil in our next game, that will probably not be because of some managerial master-stroke. It may well be just the way the match pans out.
Why on earth are you buying into this notion that the outcome of a sporting event with 20-odd players and a huge number of variables is decided IN ADVANCE by the decisions of one man? It's nonsense!
Did Liverpool win those two games because the City manager has suddenly become bad at his job?
