Injuries And Suspensions

[wassy04]

CH needs to be careful here. If we lose on Saturday, which I would say is now the likely result, then we could be going into the Derby game in two weeks time with next to no points from 4 games. And we know what follows if you lose that game off a bad run.....

I get your point but 4 or 5 games is not a season. Why can't we just wait till christmas before deciding things are terrible. 

We're not realistically going for playoffs anyway this season so doesn't matter if we lose a few games.

I'm aware some of the fans may disagree, anyway even if we do lose the first 4 games, it's not the manager to blame. Not his fault we've not signed anyone yet or that we had a covid outbreak or that Worrall and Soh got injured.

Try telling Garner, Zinckernagel and the players they are trying to get here that.

They have to be sold on the project that we are trying for top 6.

Zinckernagel mentioned it, and Hughton talks about being competitive in top half.

Even though we are re-building there is no reason why we shouldn’t be aiming to stay on the coat tails of the top 6.

Marinakis will not just write reasons off - no chance.

Yeah sure I agree, that's not really what I meant. I just meant because we're not pushing flat out for top 6 we can afford a slow start.

You're right though, if we want to get the big loans and better players we need to convince them we're going to be competitive as soon as possible.

Mainly though it's completely unfair to judge CH based on the first few games when the majority of the issues are out of control.
