Missed the game.  But results may - almost should - go our way over the next few games and we hang onto 6th. The guys get a 9 day break and we go from there.  I don't subscribe to the season being over for us.  Sarpong has started to show some signs and with a thin-ish squad and injuries and suspensions this has to be the bottom.

Sure, we are not playing great.  But I'm one who also thinks the refs are also killing us - and that that's not an accident.  Bullshark to those saying the players are professional blah blah blah.  When you are getting the shark end of the stick every week the players are human.  You cannot expect them to remain totally on top of this professionally when they can see they are getting done over.

Time to stop being polite about it and call a spade a fudgeing aussie. 

Thankfully Ernie is calling it, as tactfully as he has to:
