    Yes we're all disappointed, yes I wouldn't have posted this if we'd not bottled a 2-0 lead, but here we are.

    Last 12 at home:

    Won: 2
    Drawn: 1
    Lost: 9

    Overall home record under Wilson:

    Won: 5
    Drawn: 3
    L: 11

    We've been decent away from home this season, but that won't continue. We were, largely, useless at home last season. We are, largely, useless at home this season. Because of this, I've largely only been to away games since January. I'll start paying £23 to go to home games again when we've a team with some grit, fitness and bottle that doesn't capitulate against average League 1 teams.

    I don't think Wilson should be sacked. I just felt like highlighting how bad we've been at home in his second stint at BFC. It's not acceptable that we're still rolling over for teams in this division at Oakwell, but I don't know what the solution is. Just wanted to get a bit off my chest.

    You can't start quoting stats like that until he has had five seasons to get things right.

    Well, quite. I honestly don't want to see him sacked after building a new team, and he won't be, but his stint has put me off going to Oakwell. At least away from home it's a day out, few beers in some new pubs, different part of the country and low expectations meaning it's even better if we win.

    At home though you expect to get something most games, and on the odd occasion you don't it's even worse. The majority of games under Wilson we've lost at home, ergo I've lost my enthusiasm for them.
