Magilton: Savour or Fraud?

I know full well that there will be plenty of people criticizing me for this piece and it is sure to raise some eyebrows but I feel like I need to get it off my chest as I am very upset at the amount of time and money I along with numerous other supporters have wasted watching what appears to be a complete imitation of the Real ITFC!

Now don't get me wrong pre-season I didn't expect us to make the play offs this season, however we have a great chance of doing that now especially with our new found wealth, but we will achieve ZERO if we don't learn how to win away from home, our fantastic home form will count for very little if we continue to look like startled rabbits caught in a head light every time we venture onto an opponents playing surface. You cannot possibly compare the two sides that play home and away yet they are the same players??

I am certainly not suggesting I would want Magilton sacked but I do feel VERY cheated as a town fan as I know we can perform, it's just we only seem to do so every other week! I do think though we may have been a little hasty in rewarding Jim with a reported £500k a year contract, based on a poor season last season and what so far has been a very peculiar season this year!

It will be interesting to see what kind of an owner Mr Evans is, will he be the type like Gibson at Boro who stands by his managers or will he turn out to be like Mandaric at Leicester who changes his managers more often than he changes his socks, surely though he won't be happy at allowing his team to play like amateurs at every away match?

One thing is for sure our away support has been exceptional considering I for one go into each away game fully expecting to lose, 1100 fans on a Tuesday night in December at Bristol is top class and to me puts our home crowds to shame which in my opinion have been very disappointing.

I personally won't be spending any more money on 7 hour round trips until we win a match away from home, and from what I have seen so far at West Brom, Hull, Cardiff and Bristol it probably won't be this season!!
