Despite loosing the game, Town were creating good things when they passing the ball, for instance at Halls goal.
It’s normal that the expectation are set high after a play-off final, but sometimes it cannot be followed up by another good season. Some have it very difficult with that.

We started well but faded badly. There are no tactics and no inspiration both on and off the field. Time for changes I’m afraid otherwise we will be slugging it out with Wrxm, Macc and Mansfield come April.
And just who was that idiot impersonating a referee on Saturday??

Message understood John but having been a Town fan for a very long time now I think it is refreshing for fans to have high expectations of the team. Personally I think home form in the new stadium has been the biggest let down.

6 points from last 33. on that form we would be bottom of the league. I`ve been saying this for a while now, but it’s about time the so called loyal fans woke up and smell the coffee.
Is 40 points enough to stop relegation? we are dropping so fast, i’m getting scared. It reminds me of the Ratcliffe era. Nobody saw our relegation coming then either, until it was too late.
I`m not saying it’s time to hit the ejector button, but let’s face facts. On current form, we are putting ourselves in the frame for an end of season scrap. Something needs to change. GP says don’t panic, the fans say get behing GP, but we are currently a poor team, much as it hurts me to say it.
The we beat the leaders over 50 minutes is the biggest pile of rubbish since last week’s one about the lemmings. It’s laughable.
It’s time to make our results do the talking GP, and cut the claptrap, or we are in the mire.

I agree that our home form has been very bad, infact the worst for many years – and we should improve that ASAP.
Relegation, I don’t think so, if Town can get around 10 points more, we should be save and focussing on the new season, which hopefully would be a lot better.
