Deep I wish I could share your optimism because it’s been along time that I have watched a team that has totally lost any confidence. We are playing like a team that is in a relegation battle. For me one of the guys on the radio after last nights game hit the nail on the head said, the last time we totally dominated a team was Sunderland away. We have been punching above our weight for along time.
I'm not actually that optimistic, but there is still a chance and while there is a chance you keep trying. And certainly a better than slim chance that we could make the play-offs, where again the only source of optimism is the law of averages.
We are in a race with around 10 clubs to finish top 6 of which Pbro will most likely be top. Most of the ten, ourselves included, seem to be hell bent on finishing outside the top 6 possibly to avoid financial implications of Champ football. I hate our style of football and Jackett depresses me but in our favour our poor run will probably end soon enough to scramble to 5th or 6th before he rests key players for the play offs.
