Where Martin flicked the ball onto Weimann and Butters was allowed to push up onto the edge of the box in the right place to pick up that loose ball -Butters was up there because he knew defensively behind him we were covered with GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that answers why it doesn't matter that we're not top. The answer to why we're not top right now is because we had a poor start to the season.

Failed to lose to those two too - despite it being in that wobbly first part of the season. Hull away not a test? or Wednesday? or Birmingham? or Reading? Okay then.

Srg Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I love the notion that you have to beat certain teams to go up. No, you just have to accumulate enough points over a full season against anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
