Sounds like we have midfield woes, with Marcondes, Nunez and McLean set to miss out.
All the hope that's grown in the last month seems to have evaporated. This team hasn't got much backbone it seems. Something that is built I believe after a group gells and gets a collective identity. So many new players have come in that I guess you can at least understand why we are perhaps mentally weak as a group. Thorup also new to the Championship. The supercomputer predicated 10th as a finishing position a few weeks ago. That seems about right give or take a place or two. And maybe matches most peoples' expectations pre season?Sounds like we have midfield woes, with Marcondes, Nunez and McLean set to miss out.
It’s a young team so inconsistency is to be expected in a way. My worry is that in the summer we then lose Sarge, Sainz, Nunez etc, fill their spots with teenagers then are back to a “rebuilding” phase.All the hope that's grown in the last month seems to have evaporated.

Lots of 'postmortems' I think will come - even before the end of the season! I feel like adding my thoughts now but will wait...only to say in summary a frustrating season of encouraging signs and yet the same old frailties!
I preferred The Housemartins!I'm off to listen to the Beautiful South. Get me in the mood.
Saw them at the UEA, just as happy hour was in the chartsI preferred The Housemartins!

Plenty of new, expensive midfielders to pick but they are young and inexperienced. The club chose to go down that route rather than pick older players so just have to get on with it.Sounds like we have midfield woes, with Marcondes, Nunez and McLean set to miss out.
