Abject performance by the entire team in solidarity with their co players. The South Africans signed for Wigan instead. Saturday was far and away the worst performance of an FC first team I have ever seen. It was the stuff of nightmares but the real nightmare is that I just can’t see another win even Wakey raise their game when they play us, because they know they can win, look at the recent results of the fixture. This downward spiral has been going on for 5 years and unfortunately this could well be our last season in top flight, especially with the IMG plans.
ps Keith, Bob and the rest of the mob will cream their knickers.
