Our issues go a little deeper than 1 ill timed option by our best player. He could do that each week for the rest of the season, and I'd still regard him as our best midfielder, our best winger, our best attacker, and so on, and more than any has been the player most responsible for points earned this season.
I for one am tired of waiting for this 'mini run' we're going to embark upon. Take out our 2 clean sheets, and we've conceded only 41 goals in 18 games. Does that warrant finals football? Our much hyped 3 pronged attack who scored 36 goals between them last season, have 14 so far this season. And I know all teams have injuries. And we now sit comfortably equal on goals for and against with the bottom team. But at least now we've had time to gel, so I will get in first before I hear the line from the club; 'there's still 21 points to play for .... it's still mathematically possible".
