but opinions are based on performances and ultimately results over 2 seasons...

had we put in shyte performances consistantly and won 1-0 most of the time and sat 10th, not many would be complaining...... thing is, the defensive, negative strategy doesnt seem to be working well enough to give many fans confidence that we'll stay up..... you cant really defend our attacking strategy as we've scored so few goals, and a draw seems like a victory!
