Shrimp in a Kilt
Guest
I'm with Upminster Blue on this one Mike... I think talk of blowing it and bottling are off the mark. Yesterday the team played their hearts out, and yes they made mistakes, and looked nervous at times, but I saw no lack of effort or self-belief, no-one shirking thier responsibilities or hiding. Frankly I think we have over achieved this season, stretched ourselves too far and come up fractionaly short. And as you say, the season isn't over yet.[b said:Quote[/b] (Xàbia Shrimper @ May 08 2005,20:36)]I know.[b said:Quote[/b] (Upminster Blue @ May 08 2005,21:28)]Of course your opinions aren't null and void. But, you did categorically and very definitely say that we blew promotion. I was merely saying that I'm struggling to see how you can be, or appear to be, so emphatic from such a distance.
However I base my opinions on the very real statistics I have on my screen at the moment. Just a few weeks ago we were top and we have only ourselves to blame for not remaining in that pole position. On that basis, I maintain we blew it ...
