Agreed it's a good article.

The bit that caught my attention was 'Two good results were bound to be followed by a depressing third'. I checked back and since O'Neill left we have only won two in a row six times, once this season. Six times in the best part of four seasons. And it's not as if we win one, lose one, win one, lose one. It seems like there cultural or psychological problem at the club.

Losing has become too acceptable.
