Having seen Town play two matches within 4 days I failed to see any similarities between the two performances.
Having seen Town play two matches within 4 days I failed to see any
similarities between the two performances. At Cardiff we were inept and
apart from hitting the bar after 30 seconds were second best to
everything (apart from getting in the tunnel at half time) for the
remainder of the match! Against Southampton although we weren't at our
glittering best we still had too much for a saints side who showed lots
of characteristics of past Burley sides, lots of nice football without a
cutting edge and very poor at the back.
What I am also at a loss to
understand is why our support has become so poor at home, but for my
money seems to have increased away? I mean surely the glory hunters have
missed the plot here; we never win away from home, yet win every game at
home! At Cardiff we must have had over 1,000 fans which is superb
considering the ludicrous kick off time, yet at home in what was a
fairly attractive looking fixture on paper less than 20,000 turned up!
I wonder if those stay away fans will be turning up next season should we
get promoted? The team has produced the best football in the division
all season and thoroughly deserve crowds which reflect that, I know you
can argue Watford only get 15,000 despite being top of the league, but
their support has always been low, we know that we have far more fans
that could turn up because they have turned up in the recent past. My
final point on this is that surely now with this investment deal all but
done and our lofty league position the crowds can only start going one
way.
We now have a sequence of 4 home matches out of the next 6 games, this
is an IDEAL opportunity for us to cement ourselves amongst the top 6,
win those 4 games and pick up 3 or 4 away points (Has to happen
eventually even the budgies have now won away) and we will be firmly
challenging for promotion.
