First game I've watched this year and thought yep, we're a bad team.  Not that I've seen a bad game or a bad performance, we now look like one of the bottom 2 or 3 deservedly.  


Injuries have been a problem but we've coped really badly with those injuries as well which indicates there are too many players who are coming in that aren't good enough frankly.  When you do get injuries you find out a lot about your squad and I think we've been pretty exposed


The season is really in danger of finishing on a completely sour note.  We're hanging on to performance from a 10 game stretch but that's only part of the season and most teams will go on some sort of a run at some stage.  You can't just pretend that the other 14 games didn't happen, or that we were unlucky in all of those matches.  We're now the worst defensive side in the competition and that's just absolutely killing us.  


I endorse the criticisms of Welnix as well - sometimes it seems like we're only interested in putting together a side that will be bare minimum "competitive" and sneak into the 6 - I don't think they have a plan AT ALL to win, or even really think about winning the competition.  It's pretty unambitious stuff
