Best case scenario, the Accrington game is us at our worst with our 'settled squad' It was clear that no one really wanted to be at the game yesterday. Long drive, miserable conditions, first cold spell after summer. Brenner of BBCR sounded like he was miserable yesterday from the very start, as well as both sets of fans coming over as quite subdued. (No, this isn't a swipe at Brenner - he genuinely sounded unhappy from the offing yesterday.) Of course, players are paid to play in a variety of conditions, and yesterday is nowhere near the worst conditions we've played in, or will likely play in. Howerver, the team have proven they are capable of playing as a team, and had we not had such a rocky time in our first month, yesterday would have been entirely acceptable of a loss given the all round sh**iness of the day. Cook obviously still has a long way to go to convince us that he's El Numero Uno , but yesterday was such a crap day, I can't really get too upset with Cook about it. | |
