    That's the hardest point for me I thought Keef would have us up to win it

    He's got his target for the season set already and thats what hes going for. 50 points and safety.

    I'm just glad that his piss poor tactics and team selection made it easy money to lump £50 on coventry today and double my money. Nice one Keef

    Why do we beat Reading, Leeds and Leicester away and go to Coventry for a draw?

    If you're playing for a draw, you'd better make sure you get one.

    Keith seems desperate to tighten up the defence, so I doubt this will be the only such performance we will get served up between now and the end of the season.

    Because we now only need draws to achieve how negative ambition of championship survival.

    Agree, perhaps he's trying to get certain habits fixed in. He bemoaned individual errors again

    It's understandable, but he also has to consider that folk are paying good money to watch the games.

    Seriously? In that case, serious question... did you cheer the goal? Not a dig by the way - if I had that money riding on it I'd have probably been pleased to hear it, but I'd never have stuck that kind of cash on us losing for that very reason.

    Maybe if we exceed the 50 points he'll be worried the board won't feel the need to invest further in the summer... Outperforming and all?!
    Just a thought like...

    No I didn't. I was gutted when they scored. The only feeling of 'joy' was more of a quick shrug of the shoulders and a 'ah **** it, at least I made some money' then back to being fed up at losing.

    Unfortunately as soon as I saw we were playing 6 defenders, one up front and no wingers against the bottom of the league there was only one result and I had resigned myself to defeat before the game kicked off.

    because people make mistakes and sometimes people get things wrong - don't know who your personal hero is but I'm damned sure he / she made mistakes along the way - try and be a bit more forgiving

    Tha ballsier than me putting the beans on in the first place mate.

    To be fair I thought all week that the clean sheet was his target - posted as much last night. Not what I want to see though and feel sorry for the 900 odd that went. Asking for trouble.

    Because we had a midfield of Butterfield/Drinkwater/Vaz Te/O'Brien/Perkins then.

    Well said.

    I am absolutely bewildered why other so called supporters cannot see this obvious circumstance
