Based on his comments at the time it seemed bigger than that - the players' body language at the time was a world away from the previous season as well - something must have been going on behind the scenes.

I doubt it, he just wasn't good enough.Anything to do with the Palace lad that got shipped off?
The thought of playing 2 strikers just doesnt work for us. Blessing in disguise and proves my point. BOX MIDFIELD ALL DAY LONG.
I'm sure this is no co incidence in the anazing clean sheet run.
BOX MIDFIELD benefits our back 5 too.
Come on with O Hare in the team it’s fine and soon we will give someone a proper hiding
Well be fine. Defence is looking like it’s finding its feet, O’Hare back soon which will make a world of difference to our attacking play. Comparing this team with Thorns is just silly.
I didn't see him play but I think it is unlikely he wasn't good enough. I don't recall SlowerThanPlatt (haven't seen him for a while btw) ever raving about a player of ours but he seemed to know a lot about this lad and rated him highly and Palace fans also seem to think he has a good future. He is young and it isn't that surprising he didn't settle.I doubt it, he just wasn't good enough.

Nothing to be proud of. Even your right occasionally.Is this where I pick up my internet points?
Body language doesn't tend to be great when you're losing. The point is we will never know if there were issues, and that's a good thing.Based on his comments at the time it seemed bigger than that - the players' body language at the time was a world away from the previous season as well - something must have been going on behind the scenes.

Worked a treat with Godden too in league 1 winning season. It's not just about having a battering ram.If you have a one man battering ram up front you don’t need someone up there with him, you need the midfield behind him getting more of the ball and getting forward in numbers to support him.
Robins alluded to there being problems at the time that had been resolved.Body language doesn't tend to be great when you're losing. The point is we will never know if there were issues, and that's a good thing.

Yeah the 'issues' seemed to me that we were playing shit and bottom of the league. Of course morale and body language was poor.

No, but the situation at the time wasn't looking rosy and none of us has a crystal ball. I'm all for living in hope.It’s not hindsight if people we’re saying we’d be ok at the time is it.

It’s also a fact that all of those issues still remainBut the circumstances aided an air of bad club management, despondency, and lowering morale. If an organisation's constantly fire fighting then it distracts from the core business.
Those circumstances are why to be worried, not a reason to excuse as far as I was concerned - a darkness surrounding the club is not good. Thankfully, we have a team manager that can get results despite the ineptitude surrounding him.
It also applies now of course (and I know I'm preaching to the quoted comverted) that we're not promotion contenders as it stands, we're a midtable Championship side! We'll see how we go after a break...
Could it have been the financial issues?Based on his comments at the time it seemed bigger than that - the players' body language at the time was a world away from the previous season as well - something must have been going on behind the scenes.
Not yet. That was very thoughtful of someone.We all thought you were dead. Think someone lit a candle.

Yep - foresightIt’s not hindsight if people were saying we’d be ok at the time is it.
Interesting stat, but last year we fell away towards the end of the season. If we can learn from that, and avoid injuries, and maybe add one or two bodies in January, then the playoffs are a realistic target.Turns out we are 3 points worse off than last season with 1 less game played
I love how we can all join arm in arm and celebrate a good win together.

In fairness reading some of this stuff really gives me a chuckle, even reading my own bile. This thread is probably a classic now though; P45's, suicide hotlines, Glicko turf wars, a comparison to the 1919 squad - where clearly many of our players were killed fighting in World War One.
If this place had a subscription fee, I would pay it.
Happy to have had my head well and truly in the sand. We stopped the shit goals and built from there. I'd have been way more worried if I felt like we were getting totally obliterated week in week out.The odd thing is we aren't played off the park. We either have a defence that leaks shit goals or we can't put it in the net. I'm still hopeful it will turn around.
That’s true.If you have a one man battering ram up front you don’t need someone up there with him, you need the midfield behind him getting more of the ball and getting forward in numbers to support him.
