In a game we had to win to stay up, we lose 6-0 despite having the best support you could possibly ask for. I doubt many football clubs in the world can post such unpredictability, I won?t lie and say that doesn?t worry me, that?s my overriding feeling really ? worry. Not worrying about next season but I worry how footballers can play solid at home and fall to pieces away. Disappointing display from Francis, I don?t think it?s a case of he?s been made a scapegoat as overall it?s obvious we weren?t quite good enough BUT his performances since New Year haven?t helped. He was strolling yesterday. It?s obvious Worthy still rates him and he?s probably staying though.

Well done and fair play to WBA, Richardson may be a w**ker but I do respect him for going to WBA and giving his all every game and showing passion. They got draws at Highbury and Old Trafford. Pleased Palace and Saints have come down with us, looks as though WBA being kept out that little round robin of games between us, Palace and Saints has helped them towards the end of the season.

Yesterday showed up just how shambolic we can be, there?s only so much I can look forward to next season, more I think about it, the more I think it?s going to come down to how we?re gonna do away from home, another worry. I think within the club a post mortem of sorts should be carried out because I think there?s something a bit wrong, put it like this ? what we did yesterday was not normal. I did wonder what was going through the players head when they stood in front of us 15mins after the final whistle, I?d like to think they felt disgusted with themselves because they let themselves badly yesterday.
