This? As in this afternoons performance? No, of course not.

However does this afternoons performance mean it’s “the playoffs again”? No, of course not.
It will be. How can we catch top 2 when we have won 2 away Games in 10. We have conceded more than half of the league ffs man.

I dont mind Johnson but this is an absolute disgrace. Why hasn't he made changes at half time?
 
No doubt the usual ‘you can’t win every game‘ and ‘other teams will lose games as well’ crowd will be along soon…
What I always say though is to look at the performance. Often, goals can actually be quite a bit of luck and don't reflect the game at all. Even some wide margins are often just a case of the ball rolling the right way half a dozen times in an otherwise even game.

Today is not that. Today, we've looked muted upfront even when we've controlled the game in parts. But every time they attack, we look like conceding.
Today, the performance is dreadful.
 
Defend who? Winchester getting caught under a ball that’s been in the air for ages, or Doyle for forgetting to stand within five yards of their centre forward?

There’s a difference between not allocating blame, and blaming one person for others’ failings.

No manager in the world would tell players to defend like that.

Johnson.
 
Absolutely had enough of this shit every week, we can't even be competent in the 3rd division. Will be finding something better to do on a Saturday afternoon before too long.
Aye I’m buzzing for this season to end so I can sack it off and not have to feel guilty about not going every week
That this is a horrendous performance, but we’l still be slap bang in the mix for the top two despite it.

Does that seem irrational, or am I looking at a different league table to everyone else?
How? We’ll just get smashed in 2 weeks by someone like Crewe
