Chin Up Guys
Look guys, were going through a very rough patch at the moment, but lets not get too downheartened. Last time we got relegated, we got relegated and then relegated again, so seriously, take a reality check people, did you seriously expect us to bounce straight back up again? With us losing eastwood at the start of the season, and not getting a decent replacement in, did anyone really expect us to be up the top making a massive impact on the league? No. I didn't think many of you do. I know most of you would have taken mid-table safety at this time in the season... but still theres people moaning and groaning about results this year. Yes, it's dissapointing; but it's not unexpected is it?
Yes - our defence isn't defending as well as possible, and yes most of our strikers can't shoot for toffee, but it's not like were rooted to the bottom of the championship, is it? We're mid-table of League One. We're creating chances most games and all we need is someone to poke them into the back of the net; and given time, I think MacDonald will be just the man do that. All he needs is for the boo-boys to get off his back and let him get on with it.
Confidence is low in the camp, and the only way for that to improve is for results to improve, but we can't moan about the position of the team. We've had some great results, and some 'not so' great performances, but if it was all happy-go-lappy why arn't we top of the prem with £50m to splash around. Poor performances and bad results are all part of the package, and being a fan of SUFC, you have to take it. I for one would prefer us to lose some matches than win every match. If I wanted to be a winner every match, I'd go and support a team like Manure or Chelski.
Tilly is still a NEW manager; he's only been in the managerial game for a few years now and is STILL LEARNING. How many of you could possibly do a better job than him? Seriously? Not many of you - and I can be assured of that. So what gives you the right to critise what is happening and why he's doing it? He knows, better than anyone else, how well the team works behind the season. He knows how the players are performing during training, what their attitude is like and how well their progressing. He's on a string-tight budget and people are moaning he can't bring in decent players. Could you bring in decent players on a string-tight budget? The people who he had brought in have all got different things they add to the game. Some have been good buys, others havn't been such great buys; but you can't have an amazing buy everytime? Let's go and buy wayne rooney and cristiano ronaldo. We can't go getting those players, because it's physically impossible. Even when the right player for the team comes along it's, just not OK to go and buy them just like that, because you dont want to go breaking the wage structure and making all the other players un happy. Lets see who he gets in during the transfer period, and see who leaves and then re-assess the situation after the transfer period. If nothing positive happens there, then maybe we have a reason to start worrying.
Lets not get on Tilly's back yet. We just need to let this season go past and make sure we stay in this league. I've always said, and will always say that the NEXT season will be the season to judge tilly and how well he's doing. We've just been relegated so we need to get our feet back on the floor and start building again for next season. Many of us at the start of the season would have taken mid-table safety, and I for one am happy where we are at the current time. Yes, we all want the team to perform the way we know they all can, whipping every team in the league, putting 20 goals in every match, each player covering 50,000 yards of the pitch, but it's not going to happen every match. Were going through a rought patch, but it's not the end of the world. Let's not start calling for Tilly's head yet.
Lets get behind the boys against Bristol Rovers on NYD!! Heres to 3 points and a more successful year next year!!
