We just need to stop passing it at the back in tight situations. We clearly don't have the players to suit this style so it's all down to the gaffer I'm afraid. If we mixed it up a bit and kept the opposition guessing a little might help. We are so one dimensional it's unreal. Not much of a plan A at the minute, let alone a plan B. Teams put the high press against us and wait for the inevitable missed pass at the back and hey presto. Sit on the lead for an hour and then catch us on the break when we are chasing the game late on. I can see a 3 or 4-0 v Boro at the weekend but hope and happy to be way off the mark with my prediction.

We have the players to control a game, easily enough quality to be a mid table championship side...

Now the reality.

Martin has drained the players of any confidence, players who were looking for work and playing on the front foot (Manning, Grimes, Ntcham, Piroe, Fulton, Cooper and the entire back four) are all now hiding, basically devoid of any confidence and "looking the other way".
We are a soft touch, and will probably avoid the drop by the skin of our teeth 🙏

I'll be there Saturday.
I'll be there at the final whistle no matter how many Boro score against us, without booing the team.
Will I sing Martins name through the game? No. Given up with him a long time ago now.
Will I sing and cheer the lads on the pitch? Yes
Will I be happy if Boro score a titfull or we lose 1-0? Never in a month of Sundays
Will I be happy to see Martin leave in the summer? Fukaye!!
amen to that
