Tonight was a complete microcosm of the season so far. We didn't lack for effort, but as usual we couldn't cope with a big, quick, physical team. The tactics were wrong, and I cannot understand the substitution of Lawrie who was our most creative player.
It will take a miracle to keep us up, and like Colin Blunstone "I Don't Believe in Miracles".
If we go down, we'll lose players like Moult, and Rankine, who will be snapped up by National clubs. The remaining squad is full of players who aren't good enough to get us back up. I'm not naming names, but there are only four or five realistically on my retained list.
I've tried so hard to keep faith with Lee Sinnott, but he has to go. Preferably tomorrow morning. And we need a new man in who can build a promotion squad by August.
I'm afraid those of you who think we will stay up probably still believe in Santa Claus. See you at Chorley next season.
