What I.Saw: I Could Dream For More & Complain About Less

A period of reflection. We finished the season in relegation form.

Too many players frightened to show for the ball.

Too many watchers not enough achievers.

Too many odd selection choices culminating in Warnock as a holding midfielder.

Too many points thrown away.

One point from the play offs.

Yet a million miles better than under Clough.

Yes we failed. We failed spectacularly. We clutched defeat from the jaws of certainty.

It's life. We need to deal with it.

We all have our views as to how and why we should do it.

For now though it's enough for me that over the season we finished above Notts Forest and Dirty Leeds.

I could dream for more, I could complain about less.

We achieved what we deserved over the season.

I'll rest easy.
