    Good performance, but let us make no excuses

    We played good, and were unlucky not to win. But I love how the Harry-lovers always like to point out when we're unlucky, and ignore the fact that we had been very lucky on many occasions early on.

    When we were playing poorly and winning, the Harry faithful would say "the sign of a good team is to be able to win even when not playing well". Fair enough - I agree to some degree.
    However, one can also say "the sign of a poor team is to not be able to win when outplaying the opposition". Yet Harry-lovers are just putting last night's result due to bad luck. I find this to be a double-standard.

    I really really really wish TF realises that Harry isn't the future, and does something now. We will make the play-offs, but with our abysmal record against the top sides, I just can't see us going up unless something changes.

    No point in sacking him now whilst we still have a chance of going up under the play offs.

    Funnily enough I thought it was interesting how the people moaning about how badly we were playing whilst we kept winning one nil forgot to mention how well we played last night.

      I must away now, I can no longer tarry
      This morning's tempest I have to cross
      I must be guided without a stumble
      Into the arms I love the most

        And ignore that fact we have only picked up 5 points out of a possible 25, that's bottom 3 form

          I know. With Austin coming back I expect things to improve, unfortunately not improve enough to beat the other teams in the play-offs.

            Checked the form table for that, or just saying it cos it sounds good? We were 12th last time i looked the other day.

              12th ? Thought we'd be lower than that on current form . Shows the quality if the league ain't all that this year

                Win rate/consistency is awful, top two aside.
