Listened to most of the game tonight and it was the usual story (again) of playing well, not deserving to lose, penalty injustices, etc, etc...
Whatever. It is looking dodgy now. Very dodgy. Yes we've got games in hand but I don't much like the look of our run in. I'm not expecting anything out of Saturday. Palace is obviously vital on Tuesday. As relegation battle buddies I don't trust them to do us any favours as they are only down here because of administration.
Preston and then West Brom at home both sound awkward. Plymouth at home is winnable. Then Leicester, QPR, Reading, Coventry. All also sound awkward. So that's one obviously winnable game out of 9. If we are going to avoid the drop we're going to have to pull a couple of surprises out of the bag.
Maybe we need to abandon this policy of playing nice good football and go back to playing some nasty hoofers stuff and grind out a couple of 1-0 wins. It worked for us in 2004/5 albeit with a change of manager. It might not be pretty but its better than the alternative.
