From memory, JY had to cope with at least this many injured if not more for most of last season. Of course it’s disruptive and there may be many reasons for it, whether it is having injury prone players or training on an artificial surface etc. Whatever team we put out, I’m afraid that we should not be handing the advantage to the opposition by playing hospital passes in our own penalty area and gifting goals to the other side. If we have an inexperienced team who lack the confidence and ability to do this then don’t do it.
What's happening so far this season is similarly poor proformances are being hyped by fans unhappy at the ownership/Yems situation here, trying to generate a sense of crisis that after 5 games and the date reading August 20 is obviously a bit over-hysterical. I doubt if Betsy will ever win these fans over as they are grinding axes that aren't about football but he certainly knows what he has to do to quieten them down, win games. It may take time and a few more little dramas where our players have to improve without the backing and "lift" from fans that most League 2 teams like Wimbledon would take for granted, but wins will change everything.
It's luck for Betsy that our next game is so quick and expectations will be realistic for most of us, but the Fulham game was of course what our players who are currently being pillioried on here earned fully through their own good play
Ha ha your priceless!
