It's a culmination of things added together
First is the amount of football all (except Haaland) have played over the last few seasons. Our more mature players haven't had a break and they are creaking
Winning the net spend trophy is commendable, but to stay at the top you have to keep refreshing with top quality and we haven't
An example being letting Alvarez go and no replacement incoming
I spoke earlier about Grealsh at the end of the game and that loss today didn't hurt him, so it's obvious there's a lack of desire in some players
We have fallen off a cliff and it's going to take a heck of a transfer window to sort it and make us competitive again
We need to buy not just talented players, but leaders
Can you imagine Fernandinho's reaction if he was in that dressing room today

I wrote a bit of a hissy fit post in the match thread at 3-0…so taken a few deep breaths since then.

It took us 7+ hours to drive there today. It usually takes 4/4.5hrs. With 4 kids. As we do every home game (to be fair, kids don’t do weekdays, though I do). My boys are 15 and 12 and had to push the car a couple of times in the borders as the snow hit and the A702 was hit with the blizzard. It probably wasn’t good parenting to put us all at risk to be honest, the roads were lethal.

We’re now at Carlisle on the way back, if the roads are halfway decent it’s another couple of hours out to East Lothian.

But that was dogshit. Utter dogshit.

Like I said in my other post, I’ve barely missed a home game in 40 years. I was there at Lincoln when we let in 4. And Anfield for both games when we let in 10 in the space of 5 days. But tonight was dogshit.

What annoys me is the players we had our tonight have won everything. I’m not hacked off at Craig Russell, Ged Brannan, Martyn Margetson or (showing my age) Gary Fleming. They’d not won a thing, they had nothing to prove, they did their best.

Tonight, I didn’t feel that team did their best and that’s unforgivable.

Anyway, rant over. Back to the M6 and M74 and getting home wired from the coffee whilst the players have been asleep for hours and I carry an 8 year old to her bed.

Melodramatic I know and I’ll be there midweek as always but I’m royally f*cked off tonight, more than I should be.

have we lost the title ? are we out of the Champions League ? are we out of the FA cup ?

We are struggling, Yes
Have we turned things around before, Yes
Will we be back looking for a win in midweek. Yes

Realistically yes we have, we need to get top 4 though and hopefully win the FA Cup. That will be a good season in the circustance

But will we win the league - very unlikely at this stage unless we can win at Anfield which we almost never do. Will we win the CL, again, unlikely.
But we can go for top 4 and seek to rebuild just like in Peps first season and that would do for me

What does not kill us makes us stronger and all that.....
 
Don't yell at me
But I wonder if players know something about the 115 we dont
Probably not.
but it crossed my mind along with the Injuries we have
As I'm afraid it does look flat especially when we conceede
Only a thought
 
At the minute we are clueless we can't blame missing rodri, foden has been dog shit. Team look so disjointed and awkward?

the players will be wining and dining in the Bistro's of Cheshire oblivious to the fact we lost 0-4 today.
