There is a bigger picture to look at not just Barnsley and Stoke right at the end.
For 95% of the season we had it spot on. That is good enough for me and why I just want to see a few tweaks to our playing style here and there.
Agreed Sniff.
Yeah also agree, hopefully sabri just lost his head a bit in the relentless nature of the run in. It was pretty intense
That was it. The squad was dead on its feet and they were physically and mentally exhausted imo. A bigger (and more capable) squad would have been much better prepared and fresher. No major surgery reqd.
thanks chaps, the 90% of the games and 90% of the season was on track for achieving 100% in the cumulative test, ie 6th
the Sheff Wed, Swansea and particularly Derby performances were good, we did look like the top 6 side for much of the games
the first half hour against Stoke we were distinctly the better side
it's the Barnsley thing, but they have always been a bit of a bogey side, even during the auto promo season 93/94 i can still remember us losing there, also Oxford, also at Notts, they all seemed like really nice sunny days in my memory
still feels unrealistic to expect any change in style, and a certainly wanting to hope and want SL to come through this having learned and become a better manager, i think he is still having a few sleepless nights and nightmares, even so there is always hope
did he ever change styles at other teams?
