The positive for me is that we're in a mini blip but still in a strong position. We've had these blips before and then gone onto another strong run. Sometimes you have to take one step back to take several steps forward (as they say in cliche land)

Fair point. Apologies, consider it retracted. (sorry for the delay - haven't stumbled across this thread up to now - I blame the Tapatalk application....)

:-)

Did he explain why we had two centre backs on the bench...? Hardly impact players?

There is no point. Apart from examining the human psyche...

An alternative working title for this thread was: "It could be worse...we could be Sheffield Wednesday...lol"

I know - it's a hypothetical question. A bit like: "what if the lib dems get into power"...oops... ;-)

....we had just reached 4th place, 5 points off the top and a game in hand to take us into 2nd...on the back of 6 straight wins...? Bearing in mind it's still January. I would venture we'd be on cloud nine right now...

Does he know why?

No change - we're still 2nd if we win our game in hand and 5 points off top. If we'd reached the position we are in now (in January) after a good run of games we'd all be delighted. But it's come on the back of a couple of bad results ergo it's all doom and gloom. You gotta love the human psyche.

I've said this before today: we should play a reserves side. And send the 1st team away for a training break somewhere warm and sunny

Still only 5 points off top and 2 points off auto-promotion with a game in hand. Damage limitation. That was a statement by the Putting-things-into-perspective Party

MK Dons get a lastminute goal to go into playoffs

Fulltime at Bournemouth

At half time we were 6 points off top spot. We're currently 5 points off top spot.

That Owls fan doesn't come on here much anymore....

Saints corner

Pompey floodlights broken. Game suspended!

Chamberlain just wide

Which may either work for OR against us, depending on results....

Charlton and Peterborough winning. All very tight atthe top again now

Pompey 2 Leeds 2

Look on the bright side....we're 1 point close to the top of the table than we were at half time....

;-)

Anyone....?????!!!!
