True but we never really challenged them, despite scoring 2. Had we showed some desire and willingness to hurt teams we (and the vast majority of teams in this league) would have hammered them.
On a side note, Samed looks at least a month from being match fit.

Everyone knew what was going to happen today. The players came into the game with the attitude that they could just turn up and win and that’s what happens.
The fact no one is remotely surprised tells you everything you need to know really.

Need a nice shiny transfer this week to pep us all up. Missing Mundle and Watson big time.

You forget the 36% of goals we’ve conceded in the last ten minutes Hank?

need a real goal threat, we need to be more positive.
still doable, but fk we are making hard work of it.

Apparently so.

We are conceding too many goals in the last few minutes because we retreat and invite teams on. Teams can't score against us if we are attacking

There was a brief boo from a few at the final whistle but it was only for a second.

People look at the table and the points totals. Fair enough. I look at the performances on the pitch.
4 teams are in this but one is way stronger than us, Sheffield are above us even with a points deduction, Burnley, who never concede just smashed bottom of the table 5-0 meanwhile we haven’t put a team to the sword since Wednesday and just let Plymouth get a comfortable draw against us at home cos we were shit scared of them.
We are the most likely team to finish 4th out the 4 teams fighting for autos imo.
Still an incredible achievement but compared to the start of the season, missing out on promotion would be incredibly disappointing.

Tbh i think Samed was ok , apart from if he did get a shout when he turned into trouble. Not very inventive, but he is probs just concentrating on not making mistakes atm.
The problems were not playing Mayenda thru the middle from the start, to share the load with Wilson and give him more space. Neil and jobe not seeming to quite know what their roles were. The biggest problem being RLB not being able to change things from 25 mins when it was obvious that things weren't going right. Plus going all defensive when 2 -1 up.
Not helped by mr dependable Mepham having a bad day at the office.
