Ivorguy Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Last ten league games gave us 3 wins 2 draws and 5 losses. Total points : 11 out of possible 30 Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Moe of a concern is the teams and fixtures that those figures relate too A resurgent Birmingham , And Norwich coming up The only thing left of interest is how we perform against the perceived or apparent better sides We do tend to look better against better sides but maybe that’s just a desperate hope ...

Alex_BCFC Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Thoughts are it is a worrying trend but things quite often under LJ have turned round quickly either way which is why I think fans get so annoyed - the inconsistency. Thing is, even looking at last ten, we won't go down with that record. Its likely that under 50 points again will be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slack Bladder Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 I've lost all enthusiasm this season, not enjoying it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts are that it’s been a rocky patch, yet we’ve still accumulated enough points, pro-rata, so stay up, yet many believe that relegation is on the cards. Last 10 games have been below par. The 20 games so far have been about on par overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFC II Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 After 20 games we are on 26 points and currently on course for a 60 point season. Shows you just how bad the league is our that this team is on course for mid table... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 It’s interesting that those of us unhappy with LJ aren’t allowed to pick a group of games to prove our point. It’s always challenged back, with “ah well, what about looking at this time period instead”. LJ is pretty much winning slightly less than he is losing, whichever period you pick. It virtually always comes out around this. This season: p20 w7 d 5 l8 Last 46 games (a season’s worth) p46 w14 d14 l18 - pretty similar ratio, same if you look at his 130+ games too. That leads me to think this is it. SL should be looking critically at this. If we pick a sequence of defeats / winless games, it’s always thrown back in our face. The above ratios probably leave us at 13/14th overall. Is that what we want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out form last 10 games hasn’t been as good as it was in the first 10 games. Our form this week has been better than Vs Preston, so it depends over what period you want to focus.

Now , see I’d take that Dave for a season or even two IF i could see a plan , how recruitment was matching and knitting in with the playing ethos / plan and There were signs of Lee developing and rectifying flaws And If there was a bit more entertainment , and certainly tempo on show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not trying to get you to say anything necessarily However we are getting worse since the start of the season, which is born out by your stats? Thus we are statistically getting worse over the course of the season so far which is further born out by actual competitive performance we see on the pitch and not a blip. Thus empirical and anecdotal evidence is we are a worse team than we were in August. Would you say that or shall we leave that assessment to me?

Dr Balls Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 We certainly aren't getting better as the season goes on. We seem pedestrian most of the time, low on confidence, and devoid of invention. We keep the ball for the sake of it, rather than looking like we are going to do anything with it. My prediction for the end of the season is somewhere between 13th & 20th place. Certainly not what SL set out as the target for LJ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
