We also lost Cook and Morrison. Then Field. We didn't have Colback for the first half of the season.
In attack we lost Celar, Kolli and then Lloyd. Frey wasn't always available.
Dembele we lost long term, then Saito. And to put the tin lid on it our only pace in Smyth.
It's been a farce and yet we're not that far behind teams like Norwich, Watford and Sheffield Wed and above Stoke, Preston and Hull. The guy's performed miracles.
Agree but you also have to credit players that stepped up during that run and some big games recently.

Yeah I do. It's when the replacement of your replacement gets injured that you're stuffed. Or when there insufficient plan A players to support the plan B ones.

West Ham? Clutching at straws.
Ah yes. Forgot about them...very bad season. Though they did win a European trophy recently. How are Wimbledon doing ?🤔 Barnet won the NL today as well.

If you had been asked for your early season predictions along with the injury info we were given; along with how piss poor our top two signings were going to be; how we would lose top players early on - I’m sure anyone would have bitten off an arm and leg to get 21st and breathe a sigh of relief.
Crock of shit season. Martí has definitely made mistakes but he has also kept us alive somehow. Maybe the reason we’ve done so poor against top half teams is because we aren’t good enough as a squad. That’s what the manager is dealt with. I think he’s done a reasonable job to keep us up. Can’t say I’ve enjoyed a lot of the football we’ve endured, but it feels like a needs must approach to survive.
No doubt things need to improve from upstairs and it doesn’t feel particularly positive right now.but … we’re all Rrrrrsssss together , so we’ll stick through it with a grin and a grimace.

Wimbledon have choked but could still get in the play-offs.

Spuds have underperformed as well when I think about it. But that won't last. We seem to sleepwalking into oblivion. Never thought I would see our club so broken.

You must be young, it's been a lot more broken this century.

Respectfully Ned, real life is not football manager and without resorting to finger puppets I’m not sure at this point I could ever spell it out you to a level you would be able to accept.
Patronising much?
With respect you really haven’t got a clue despite your oh so high opinion of your ‘knowledge’ of every aspect of the club. Embarrassing.

When the next man is in the hot seat you’ll be pulling apart his pre and post match interviews and beating yourself up about them
It’s not healthy
I think you’re expecting someone to straight talk and go balls out on the squad Handy hint…. That’s not how football works and nobody in the position of head coach is going to come out and publicly state that his players are shite and the clubs a mess.
Have a good summer X
Paul Heckingbottom's having a good go at it at the moment at Preston...seems to be going well for him...

Of course he can.
The idea that Frey and Chair were good for 50 second half minutes but weren’t fit to play 47 first half minutes is nonsense: against the best team in the division you need to give yourself the very best chance of competing from the start, not get blown away early doors and fame well over before they come on.
Can’t remember any other managers keeping our best players on the bench at the start of games so often: if they are fit enough to be there they are fit enough to start. Take them off at HT/early 2nd half if you have to.

Exactly this, bringing our better players on later in the game is just stupid, it hasn't worked all season.
Start with your best eleven and change later if required, it's not rocket science.
