Could today be the day for that most elusive of happenings, a clean sheet?

No.

3-2 win.

I've not read any of the rest of the thread yet so will be interested to see if others feel the same, but the way I see it is this.

Shocking lack of width.

Two blokes in Westwood and KEA doing EXACTLY the same job - not necessary esp at home.

Only Delph who can carry the ball and beat a man. And he nearly always receives the ball in his own half. - Pointless.

Lambert is either naive, stupid or both when it comes to tactical substitutions.

Luna is barely an upgrade on Bennett based on that performance.

We lack real know how, a consequence of either immature players or those that are not good enough - you decide which.

Yet again, movement non existant. It's surprising how easy it is to hide on a football pitch if you want to.

I really am struggling to find a positive. We were that bad. Even our goal was a toss of a coin effort.

Why oh why are the catering staff / management still unable to cope with standard numbers of customers at half time. Here's a clue geniuses, spend a day at the cricket or rugby to see how its done. Have the beers poured ready. Have a counter just for bottles. If you are expecting a crowd of 35000+ there is no excuse for the barrels to run out. Arrrgghh!!!

I need a drink now to calm down.

I'm not that confident about this to be honest.
1-2 defeat.
Damn, didn't bet on it.
