    It seems to me that under morais we only play well for one half.

    It’s better than being gash for both halves - but has anybody got any idea what is going wrong in the other halves?

    It happened under Hecky a lot as well. Just less so towards the end. We just don't have a team capable of playing well for 90 mins, and have to hope that what we do in one half is greater than the shambles in the other half.

    While we were definitely better in the second, I honestly don't think we were as bad in the first half last night as people are making out. It certainly wasn't a shambles. We should've had a point but it's another decent performance. I think we've shown enough over Morais's games to stop up, and maybe more comfortably than we think too.

    Of the teams towards the bottom, we have the outstanding goal scorer.

    It’s a poor division this year, we should have enough to not be in the bottom three hopefully.

    Our final position won’t be dictated by last night or whatever we get from Boro. Much more vital tests to come, losing at boro wouldn’t doom us.

    I get the impression we're gonna try and win the first half and defend for the second. If all fails, we're gonna try and win the second half which leads to a draw or a win.

    You have to consider there are two teams on the pitch & in every game its rare that either side does not have a good spell at sometime in the match & if fans think we should be on top & dominating for 90 minutes , consider the fact that we are 4th bottom for a reason , if we were that good we would be at the top end of the league not the bottom

    ^^^ This ^^^ Two inept bits of defending apart, we were comfortable, and spurned two good chances to score. McBurnie invisible in that first half.
