It is the same mistakes every single week.
1-0 up, on top, looking threatening - then we just freeze!
Seemingly terrified at the thought of winning, we sit back waiting for the inevitable to happen. Yes, the first Burton goal should have been disallowed, but even then a point at home to Burton who (Zola apart) looked atrocious is far from good enough.
Cole 5 - At fault for the second goal.
Berry 6 - Steady.
Nelson 7 - Won a lot in the air, impressed by him tonight.
Blanchard 6 - Solid.
Bhasera 6 - Did ok back at left back.
MacDonald 4 - Didn't get in the game, guessing he went off through injury.
Lowry 4 - Decent at set pieces but largely wasteful with the ball when he had it.
Young 5 - Much better than Sunday but still nothing to write home about.
Gurrieri 6 - Good first half, largely poor second half apart from that powerful strike that the keeper couldn't hold.
Madjo 5 - Not enough movement off the ball, largely ineffective.
Feeney 5 - See Madjo.
PCH 7 motm - Great goal and looked threatening at other times too. MUST start on Saturday.
Basically, as much as I was prepared to give Fletcher time at the start of the season, and despite some questionable refereeing decisions, he is well below par. Our players aren't particularly good, but a good manager could get them mid-table - with Fletcher at the helm I can't see us getting there. If we were to keep him for the rest of the season, I don't think we'd go down, but it'd be close, and me (plus many thousands of fans I'm sure) could not bear to see yet another relegation scrap.
With regret - Fletcher out. :sad:
