 I think it just boils down to what they call "mongrel" in the hang-egg codes. Our boys are skillful, tough, and fast, but they just don't have the self-belief/killer instinct in front of goal. Nothing can explain it except psychology. Perhaps at the back of the mind is a thought that "It's just the Phoenix".

 Listening to the Radio Sport coverage, the video stream is about 15 seconds behind the audio, which is a little disconcerting to follow!



Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

Yep, a couple of recent miracle saves don't convince me either. He's cost Victory at least 5 or 6 goals due to total incompetence. I hope we get to see an example of this in the 2nd half, although I'd much prefer a couple of good old fashioned crackers from Ifill and Brockie.

 Would've been a slightly harsh 2nd yellow IMO. Betcha Durante gets one now....

Not really unlucky, just poor. Every corner or free kick down our end I'm expecting a goal and that defending shows why.

We just can't get that final ball into the area...Just lacking that bit of quality.

The worst thing is we are playing good football for the most part. We just can't fucking finish, I feel like I want to throw my toys right now.

 And NO it's not a Cup Final because a draw is good enough for us. Honestly, off season will mean a few months off from Dewhurst, and I'm looking forward to it.

I popped out to get the washing off the line cause it started raining here and we score twice.  Who scored the goals,  I believe Brockie got at least one of them

Dewhurst isn't as bad as everyone makes out...but Piney and Chotey are brilliant.


PS: We need to keep Hoseygums.
