Style of Play


I think it is purely the lack of investment in proven quality players, simple as that. Regis has done as well as he can but unfortunately, some clubs in this division have more experience and strength in depth than we have.

I honestly thought we might have put a bit more effort into the January window. Pushed the boat out and given it a real shot of promotion. To not bring in an extra forward, ready to make an impact in games like Plymouth and Watford at home is disappointing.
Not sure why people are surprised. Followed the same pattern as most windows. Starts with the manager publicly stating what he wants. Loads of names get linked. Fans get excited. End up with someone who’s not ready to contribute. Granted Le Fee is class. Isidor signing was great news but he was already here. Was a poor window. FB positions are a worry. Particularly LB.
 
We've done that well the fear of losing has crept in and he's went ultra safe and boring to try and grind out the play offs / automatics.

Its working but it's an absolutely hard and brutal watch most weeks. You'll struggle to find a game where we've played well for the full game or have started well.
Sounds like Burnley FC.
