He has been in the game long enough to know how it works.. passing it off as a problem for the fans is just miraging an excuse imo.

He needs to worry about getting 3 points rather than how fans will get to games.  -_-

Sorry but he was directly asked a question about travelling quite a long way for games in quick succession and he said it's not really fair on the fans as we will undoubtedly take the full allocation and it would be better for everyone to play more local games in the Christmas period, he's not  making excuses at all

Makes a change but the point I am trying to make was that it happens.

All I am saying was it is part and parcel of the game. Sorry if my post came across wrong to you.

Will probably be even worse at kick off, just seen Cardiff are away to Bolton so you'd think they're likely to win that.

That's been the problem with us in recent times, just when you think we're finally going to achieve something as we closed in on second....we stop winning, start playing poorly again and the negative cycle starts again.

Been that way since 2010.

Again?

We havent stopped playing Shyite

No worries, it is a part of the game but so is diving, up until about 10 years ago so were leg breaking tackles, it shouldn't be a part of the game. It's common bloody sense not to make fans do repeated long journeys within days of each other at the end of the most expensive month of the year for them. It's not an excuse and he's not tried to make it one, it's just another example of sky and the FA not giving a crap about fans and just trying to make money. "can't get to the game? No worries, just pay an extra £40 a month and watch it at home on TV, everybody wins...but mainly us"

I hope that 1 comes today.

I don't think it will James, we have been getting steadily worse lately. I think our season will come to an end over the Decmeber/January period

I disagree. Football has been bad but I predict we will see another run of wins.

Blades are on 4 defeats in 5 aren't they? 

Wont be an easy game as they definitely deserved 3 points against us, but this might just be the time to play them.

If a team is on a bad run then its usually us that rectifies their problem!  If they also have a striker on a bad run then you can guarantee that striker will bag 1 or 2 !

Another boost to your promotion charge as we get weakened again.

Yet another injury as Paterson injures his hamstring warming up.

This means despite one ineligible player becoming eligible again on January 1st, providing no ones back from injury by the game we will have 10 out for the Man City first leg again.

Some of these injuries have been bad tackles or awkward landings, but I'm wondering if the high intensity press we do and the number of games we've had is playing a part.

Having seen the interview I admit your post was taken out if context. I stand corrected.

It does make you wonder at times are fixtures done by a computer or actually a human? 

They do take the piss a little in terms of away games.

Maybe teams/FA need to look at incentives to the folk who have to dish out hard earned £££ to these games, before even stepping on a train etc.. and yes, right smack bang in the season of commercialism too which is just onw big pain in the arse in itself.  :thumb:

We'll be out the playoffs tonight. Oh dear. 

Hopefully that will give them a kick up the backside as I think the last few games they have under performed greatly and maybe think they already in the promotion hunt. 

We were so comfortable in the top four the crumble job lately has been pathetic
