How are we feeling so far ? personally , I'm happy with the style of play , slight progress being made , 10 points from 5 games is a good return isn't it ? compared to recent seasons . frustrated to only get a point last night . mind , could've been a loss . IF we beat Burton , that point won't feel so bad . #TMSBA :claping hands:
Just okay.
It's all well and good talking about 10 points, which are indeed fab to have on the board, but the trend over the last 2 games isn't so promising. Back to a few of our bad ways from last year. 6 goals now conceded in the last 3 games.
I predicted we would finish outside of the top 6 before the season started, but after those first 3 wins I was beginning to believe we could really make a good fist of it and finish top 6 and maybe even be challenging for the top 2 players (luck with injuries willing).
After losing to Walsall and watching us last night I think we have too many problems that need addressing.
1. Shipping goals and defensive errors rearing their ugly head again.
2. Lack of a plan b.
3. Ultra thin squad.
4. Still being outmuscled
5. Goalkeeping situation still a worry.
Think it may well be entertaining, but that we just aren't good enough for a really good campaign and high position in the league table.
Need TM to do some really good wheeling and dealing and have our squad strengthened sharpish.
The games are entertaining, but have to say I di find last night incredibly frustrating.
1 defeat in 6 games. Last night would have been a win if not for a penalty miss. We conceded one sloppy goal and a needless penalty. It wasn't that bad defensively and were comfortable in the second half.
People like you just love moaning.
Just okay.

There lies the problem. Winning the first 3 games boosted everyones belief including my own but we have shown no consistency for as long as I can remember. Its a good start nothing more. Believing after the first 3 we would or could get top 2 is dreaming Otis. We all needed a reality check and we are kind of getting that now. But we are making progress slowly.
Yes, totally agree. We were all just dreaming and it was just 3 games. I was happy to get carried away by it all though and at the times I thought Armstrong was going have about 15-20 goals by Christmas.
I expect he will have 15 by December
Just okay.

You're a victim of your own over-optimism Otis and I don't think that makes the start 'Just Okay'. Mowbray said this was a 2 year project and we knew points 2 to 5 before we'd even kicked a ball in the league. For me, I'd say the trend for the last 2 games IS promising - We took a massive suckerpunch losing our key midfielder early against what transpires to be the form team in this league and have been forced to change things around, adapt a little bit and were unlucky not win our next match but demonstrated we have goals across our whole team.
Don't mean the start, just how I am feeling right now. Found last night's performance very frustrating, so based on the last 2 games I just feel okay. Being top 6 after 5 games I am very happy about.
