In the future I'd like Kenny to just sing a song in the after match interview.
Suzanne by Leonard Cohen would be nice tonight.
We normally ended up fairly near the end of Match of the Day when we were in the Premier league - the fact that we were almost an afterthought for Channel 5s highlights tonight tells you all you need to know about our season
We say without a takeover it will be dull. We don't have to be the best team to play attacking football. We can score lots of goals and still finish 12th.
Saying that, I look at all the dross we play at home. Ipswich and blues are in the the playoff hunt and they are just as boring/shit as us.
Basically the top 4/5 keep winning and the bottom 4/5 are the same (bar Bolton). Then us mid table folk are just drawing to each other. That's the reason we've managed to stay 12th.
I was having a discussion at the game and the point i was making was that another manager could get an extra few % out of these players and with a better tactical plan we could quite easily be in the play-offs despite us not being that good. I would also rather we attacked and scored goals rather than this negative boring nonsense that inevitably means drawing a lot of games, 12th wouldn't be so bad if we looked good in the odd game or to.
Agree on the likes of Ipswich and Blues, i've missed 2 home games so far but of all those i have seen i've not been impressed by any of them. The standard of the league isn't very good and the £30 million Boro and Derby have spent is not needed to make an impact, good quality recruitment and a tactically versatile manager is.
It was given as offsideThe best chance we had today was Mason after a Henry cross to Saville, it was blocked from six yards by a Blackburn defender with his hand imo. That shot hasn't counted for the shots on target stat but it definitely was.
Coady is the new Edwards it seems. Scapegoat.
