I'm not sure the current league position is the concern, it's the dramatic change in form which would mean that the required 30 points to get promotion is looking unlikely at present.

The change in form is directly linked to the team on the pitch. We are 4 or 5 key players down. I suspect we are also carrying injuries (Bruno, Kayal, Murray) in the team, but we have no adequate back-ups. Personally I think we were 3 signings short in the transfer window.

Seems you can't criticise the team anymore, no matter how deserving, without some **** calling you a bedwetter.

The "bedwetters" have been right every recent season though haven't they?

What, like the ones who thought we'd be relegated or the one's who thought we'd "blown" our chances of finishing in the playoffs?

Try watching what you're seeing instead of just looking at the the stats. This is a season-defining blip. Right here. Right now.

Preston away gave everyone in the Championship, not matter how low budget a squad to the Albion's, the blueprint to beat us.

Once the aura was broken, the psychological side of facing the Allbion this season was also dispelled.

Don't need to be a top manager to see not strengthening from a position of power in January was a big gamble. Or do you think we had a good window compared to some of our rivals ?

I would have liked to have seen a quality striker added to the squad. But let's talk about your statement that this dip in form is definitely not temporary. Do you have a crystal ball, or were you just spouting emotional nonsense?
