    I think far too many of us (probably myself included) got a little carried away when we'd won 5 of our first 7 league games, on the back of a run which has seen us with a win percentage of well over 50% since the start of last December. Rightfully so it must be said, runs like this come around rarer than the Sun reporting something that is actually true.

    But all of a sudden, we've lost 2 games in a row, for the first time (unless I've missed a game out somewhere) since November 2015. We lost to a well organised Reading side and a simply more superior Brighton team who were leaders of the Championship when we were bottom of league 1 just 10 months ago.

    All of a sudden, our back 4 isn't good enough, our front 2 isn't good enough, our summer recruitment wasn't good enough, we should never have sold this player, we should never have sold that player.

    We're 7th in the Championship. We've come a hell of a long way in 10 months.

    Have a bit of faith and patience, this team has proven that it's good enough to mix it in this league. Another.spell will come around.

    There were comments last year like "If you buy non league and league one players that's where you end up" WRONG

    We've lost a couple of games before the end of the season we will lose quite a few more so I people should just chill out and enjoy the ride.

    Nonsense - we should have won the league by now.
