The Poolie Bunker

Apparantly we weren't THAT bad today...

Yes we've hit some bad form.
Yes Hereford was totally dire.
Yes we're falling like a tonne of bricks.

But
Our bad form can not continue.
We have showed that we can play well at Swansea and Tranmere.
We can climb back up.

Have faith.

I don't think we played that well yesterday, but we were unfortunate to lose Antwi for 10 minutes just after we were getting a stranglehold on the game, but we conceded 2 poor goals from an area Antwi would have been in.
It's hard for anyone to plan for a clash of heads and that's what cost us yesterday.

Let's get losing Antwi into some sort of realistic perspective...the general concensus of the 'not too bad brigade' is that we lost him and therefore conceding goals was inevitable...oh, and not forgetting the Swindon medic who was also to blame...
...Now for the dose of realiTY, if say we lost a player by him getting sent off, should we automatically assume we have lost the game and hold up our hands...? No!! ...I expect the team to quickly re-organise, adapt and try harder to compensate for the loss of a player for the rest of the game. I EXPECT THE MANAGEMENT TEAM TO HAVE A CONTINGENCY PLAN FOR SUCH OCCASIONS AND THE PLAYERS DRILLED TO PERFORM IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES....
We know what these players are capable of, so either they aint doing the business or the management team aint...you decide, we can't keep blaming Lady Luck and slow medics now can we...?
