Well clearly you do. But let's say you're a billionaire. Your username could well be a play on that, would make sense. You still have a limited time on earth as do we all. Spending what's left of it following a team you barely tolerate traipsing to Australia seems crazy. The world is full of beautiful places, untapped experiences, cultures we're not familiar with. Yet you choose to invest your most valuable commodity, time, in following Lee Radford literally to the ends of the earth. What a beautiful tacit expression of devotion; more powerful than the litany of criticism of his regime that characterises your contributions on here.
There was a good performance in there waiting to get out. Errors and discipline cost us any momentum we might have had. I'd be more worried if it was a good performance from a full strength side and we still got well beaten. Still plenty to come , with players to return. Early days yet. I did think the trip to Australia could prove a distraction (even though I understand the merits of it). Bad day at the office for a large number of players!

To be fair, if I had thousands of pounds to spend, I'd also be on an internet message board on a Saturday night........

I'm a happy clapper, you know it. And we're 8th, right? Read the content of the thread mentioned, it's just a balanced assessment of early performances by other teams, wouldn't you say?

FWIW the aussie trip must have taken a lot out of you and its surprising but honest of Radders refusing to use it as an excuse.
Like Wane we are not going to use the Aussie trip as an excuse as it was our choice to go and we knew what we was getting in to.
Unlike Wigan I actually thought we started quite well and seemed physically strong and up for the battle.
It was mentally where we struggled and switched off.
Allowing Webster to score without a finger being laid on him right on half time was a prime example.

How many minutes did Abdul play, hardly seemed to be on?
Need to try and sort out what to do about our centres, I don't like carrying one on the bench. The fact we had to take one of our most dangerous players off in Connor, just to give Carlos some game time.
I though the game changed when they brought their bench on and we stuggked to dominate from that period.
