Where have all the "we're too good to go down" merchants fucked off to today? Strange how one result, that's hardly out of line with the form over the rest of the season, seems to have turned the tide of opinion. Shame it's way too fucking late to do anything about it now isn't it?
Everyone has their own tipping point. Yours was just before theirs (ours).
To explain why I'm changing my mind its not just on the defeat, but the way it all came about:
- Bizaare starting lineups (Rose left wing, rookie defender over Cuthbert)
- Bizaare substitutions (leaving it to 1 minute past HT. Prutton on right then move again)
- Bizaare Wilson post-match interview (the problem is up front)
- Conceeding another 3 goals while "playing well" (I thought we had started to turn the corner and Bournemouth was just unlucky)
It kind of hit home how much do do we are in, not because of the pointage. But because of the seemingly lack of improvement, ideas and constant tinkering.
But what I will say is that we are NOT down yet. It is perfectly possible to stay up while Rovers, Plymouth and Exeter are also useless. It is perfectly possible Walsall's run will end. It is possible we will improve, even if this is down to 'luck' or new players settling in (Benyon and Obiyka/Misun).
It ain't over 'til its over.
