Table looks pretty ugly right now, with all teams around us with a game or 2 in hand to compound it. [Post edited 8 Feb 2020 16:51]

How is the score line harsh? Sounds like we got battered the second half. | | | |

Didn't make the most of being on top then have no response when the opposition come back strong. 0 points from Rotherham, Peterborough, Sunderland. Playoffs a write-off if they weren't already. All hopes on keeping somewhere close then smashing the run-in against the toss teams but that's looking like a long shot. | |

It was pretty even overall. | |

This would be OK had we have not done the exact same thing so many times this season. We play well for periods and just not score. | |

I don't think Sunderland are particularly a good team though. We dropped off so much in the second half. We just don't seem to have any belief! | | | | Login to get fewer ads

And even then does anyone genuinely think we can make it through the playoffs? I know 'anything can happen' but realistically we're going to struggle against any team that finishes in there with us. | |

I don't think any of the teams around us are, taken individually, that much cop so this is still salvageable but you are right - we are so, so frail that it is incredibly hard to see us getting the three results that would take us up. | |

No, the frustrating thing about that and this whole season is that a lot of teams aren't up to much, especially compared to the players we have. There's a chance that when that extra pressure is put on the other teams start to crumble but we look utterly shot to bits. | |
