    And I'd take some comfort from that if there had been any positives in the games, being closely edged out or being unlucky.

    Unfortunately none of those apply.

    What a state we're in from such a position of potential.

    That may be true though arguably some of that may be due to the fact they have got 3 points from us
    Also its hard to ignore the fact that our most recent games against the likes of Millwall Blackpool Middlesboro etc where we have been even worse than we were against the better sides dont support the bad luck story

    We've not been unlucky in any games this season in fact in quite a few we've been very lucky the other side haven't scored 5 or 6

    $hite like this really doesn't help, we should have seen a difference against league 1 opposition in the cup then?

    If the strength of the opposition was the only factor. Which obviously it isn't.

    Schopp is very keen to blame the young players, who are supposed to be coached by him. So after he has coached them if he thinks they are not ready or not good enough, then he shouldn't pick them but he does. Conclusion is the buck stops at school's door. This leads me to my conclusion which is mr. Schopp is not upto the job

    We may well have had a difficult run of games but Schopp has the uncanny knack of making the difficult look impossible. He's been dealt a tough hand but played the wrong card at every opportunity. Managing a smaller club in the Championship is a tough gig. You've got to be very good at that discipline because there isn't a wealth of talent in the squad or an army of coaches and additional backroom staff to hide behind. It's a platform that allows you to shine if you have the talent as it did for Val but it quickly exposes you if you don't.

    I think if you're going to try and rule with an iron fist you have to be fair.
