[quote][cite]Posted By: Robbo on the wing[/cite]I just find it hard to accept that we are so bad as to be botom of the table. At the start of the season we beat Reading with a side that refused to give in. We then played a Wolves side and lost late in the game (still a good effort). More recently gone to Birmingham and was a little unfortunate to loose. Self confidence. Plain and simple. FFS just give us a couple of results.[/quote]
I wonder if there is something more than confidence - a post when Pardew left suggested a rift in the dressing room between senior pros and youngsters. Something like that can stop individuals playing for each other or passing to someone you have a problem with. Add to the mix a handful of loanees getting a game in front of contracted players and it's a recipe for disaster. Vital that we get an early lead.

Maybe i'm being naive but i believe thats all we need tonight. Rather than being a goal down at home after 10 minutes, where the boo boys give up, forget the remainding 80 minutes and start to boo individual players.
Early lead would - i hope - even make the boo boys sing up and try and give some encouragement to all players, whether they be ours or current loanees.
