Not Top Two

[FFC1987]

Got to face up to it, this team under Parker aren't top two. Not calling for heads to roll or anything but its a big wake up call that whenever we get any kind of competitive team our way, we just don't take points and whenever we try and get close, we fumble. Its pretty pathetic. Under 4 wins in a row, we crumble at home to Bristol. Not impressed at all.

[One Martin Thomas]

Agreed ! There's no backbone to this side and I do mean "side" and not a "team"

[FFC1987]

The biggest indicator for me, is the complete lack of dominance at home against most teams. We either play well for 70 mins and get a draw, or we just implode and lose. We don't have consistency and personally, I'm through with Parker. If this was a season of consolidation and hoping for playoffs, then i'd tip my hat to him but the Khan's gambled on an inexperienced manager with the biggest wage/worth budget in the league and we can't outplay Bristol at home. Its pathetic. So I'm on the record in saying, I don't think Parkers up to it regardless of beat 4 lesser teams on the trot.

The referee had a mare, but we didn't create much for the first 70 minutes of the game. Has to do better.

We don't deserve promotion.We are not premiership quality unless we make some amazing purchases  in the next transfer window.

[Sgt Fulham]

Want to see top two? Watch Leeds or West Brom. They're likely the two going up automatically and deservedly so, bar the dive from the WBA player against PNE. We're not good enough and in reality i knew this before kick off. That's not to say we're bad, but we're not as good as we should be. Theres something missing from our team that was present during our promotion season, and that's confidence. Back then we knew we were the better team every time we stepped on to that pitch and good luck to anyone who dare go toe to toe. We seem to be the lion that hasn't realised it has grown up and is at the top of the food chain.

We should be steamrollering teams, but we dont have the team mentality. I just hope we get it before we (hopefully) hit the playoffs because right now I dont see us beating a good team over two legs.

[ChesterTheTabby]

So long as we make playoffs I'm happy. And obviously I intend for us to win via playoffs.

Hopefully the team doesn't give up on promotion as easily as some on here. Because there's 26 more games to play.

I fully expect them not to come top 2. I haven't given up, just changing expectation. Expecting them to come top 2 now is a fools errand.

Bit over the top. We were on a run of four and had a bad day at the office and still were only a bad ref from at least a point. Four yellows after 93 minutes? Criminal.

As I said, I hope the players think otherwise.

[Sgt Fulham]

For top two we will have to 'click' and Leeds will have to fall apart (again). Not impossible, but you wouldn't bet money on it.

Me too. If I'm in that changing room looking at the table, I'd be pretty annoyed. You win 4 on the bounce then lose only to have the gap increase. On top of that, having much tougher fixtures to come. Ugh. Not a pleasant time for us.

[S.F.Sorrow]

Top two doesn't seem very likely. But I predicted 10th-12th before the start of the season so even top 6 will be far above expectations for me.  :54:

At least I'm enjoying this season, something I can't say for the last one in the PL.

We need a sleeve's rolled up, shouty leader to galvanise this talented bunch into something that will not be beaten.  It ain't Cairney.

Saw West Brom when we drew with them at the Cottage. We battered them and if wasn't for their keeper it could have been 6. So can't agree with this. Will see Leeds in a couple of weeks so can give an opinion then.

You can see why you're wrong here though right? We don't play well, we lose at home to a few teams now. We play well against a good side and only manage a draw at home. That's not something to gloat about.

Perhaps but I remember hanging on for a draw in the end. I would be very impressed if we beat Brentford let alone Leeds but we shall see.

There is no reason why some should give up on top 2 now. I will only do so when it is mathematically impossible.

They literally can't give up but we need to curb expectations now. I'd settle to finishing top 6 now really. I maintain, anything other than automatic promotion is underachieving with this team. Sadly, I can see this ending in tears for us, limping into playoffs, then being so inconsistent that we don't get to final. Just my feelings on that current crap being offered under Parker.
