    The definition of insanity keep doing the same things and expecting a different outcome. Why sack Collins and keep everyone else get Davaney and nice jumper and shave and we are sorted.

    There was. The ball was moved quicker and slightly more directly, much less side to side across the back 3.

    Kane played further forward and deviated from what he's done all season (i.e. taking the ball from the back three, passing it to the wing back before taking the ball from the wing back and passing it to the back three) and made forward passes!

    Williams actually looked good for the first time in a long time. He made tackles, one very important one and looked like a competent defender.

    What didn't change was conceding a soft goal from set piece because we didn't appear able to stay switched on for the entire match.

    He'll struggle to replicate the accent.

    I reckon the atmosphere would have been sour and we'd have lost today if Collins was still here.
    Maybe a new guy will come in this week and give us some new impetus but whatever happens it's time to look forward and give the playoffs a good crack.

    I totally agree and now that we're in the playoffs we might as well live in hope and try to enjoy them.

    Disagree. I thought there were very clear signs of wanting to change, for the first 30 mins at least. Unfortunately you can’t completely undo 45+ games of coaching in 3 days.
