It might just be the pressure but it’s the same for other clubs. And pressure doesn’t explain how we set up, why our players look drained and why Brooks has been selected every game but one since January but is kept on the bench when we’ve been crying out for an attacking outlet down the right. Wilder looks edgy in his interviews and so the players do in the games. If anybody questions whether or not we did set up defensively, Robinson didn’t take one long throw all night, he barely ventured past the 18 yard line, neither did Holding, and Choudry just sat a few yards in front of them almost like a third centre back.
Had a great time GB, got back last night so thought the game would be a good end to our trip but not to be.It’s hard to figure out TT. I posted before the game that I hoped we didn’t try to ride it out as with Preston as we could pay for it and we did, but it’s not just that. Like FKB says something doesn’t seem right even though the league table says otherwise. Whenever we did push on last night we looked like we could score but it was in fits and starts. We played exactly like we did when we were at their ground…unless that’s the plan? To play the same way home and away.
Hope you and Mrs TT are having a good un bud.
I don’t really think he can be getting aways away with it with 77 (+2) points onboard after 37 games, the results are outstanding even if a lot of the performances haven’t been. They say the tables don’t lie after 10 games so they sure as hell don’t after nearly 40. It’s just a feeling that with the players we’ve got we could have done it with a bit more panache mate. We should be putting teams to the sword, we’ve won more games than any team in the division, and yet our goal difference confirms we’ve only scraped through most of them and that’s got to be down to managerial instructions even though he’d have us believe otherwise. We play in bursts, we get teams on the ropes and then back off. I think that’s because holding onto what we’ve got was worked against the lesser teams, but against the likes of Leeds, Burnley, Sunderland and yes Bristol it was always going to be a hard ask especially without Souttar.
The table doesn't lie, I agree, but those 77 points could well be 20 or so fewer looking at some of the performances and then we would be shaking our heads even more.I don’t really think he can be getting aways away with it with 77 (+2) points onboard after 37 games, the results are outstanding even if a lot of the performances haven’t been.

I think we’ve got more than enough to do the piggy ********, I just hope that after the last few downbeat performances and his own demure that he and more importantly the players do. We need another bouncing day performance when let’s not forget the Chris of old’s team with all sorts injury problems tore the ***** a new one!
I have no time for Mardy Wilder. He needs to get the players up for Sunday and act like we are second. He has the tools so there is no excuse.
If Carlsberg did Steel City derbys.
