Its a Forum TC, you know, exchange of views and all that (in a friendly and comradely fashion, of course!). I'm not so much whinging as expressing my frustration (which entirely echoes Simon's, based on his recent comments). Yes we DO have a great squad this season, but we should have put Trinity to bed on Saturday before half time (based on reports and the film), and I'm afraid, now I've seen it, Crook was to blame for their winner, he was rooted to the spot and came out too late to collect the ball. Yes, 3 points off second place after (almost) half the season and, yes, I would have taken that in August with great pleasure. But my fear is that this IS the best team Simon has assembled, he is at the top of his game as a manager right now, so please lets not blow it. We may not have as good a chance again to at least make the play offs. Our strikers DO need to start converting chances (come back Yates ASAP, as Trevdee says), and much as I admire Peter Crook goalkeeping errors can be really costly, it comes with the territory.
So, no whinging, just worry!!
