Well was it such a shock, a 7 - 1 defeat at Reading.

This season has been a nightmare and the fault has got to come down to the manager.

Most of the players on paper are much better than they are playing and some like Eagles are not getting a fair crack of the whip.

Chung-Yong Lee has had a terrible season yet he is in the team week in week out and that goes for quite a few of the team.

The buck stops with the manager, who is not good enough, and makes terrible team selection decisions, leaving players out - players who have had good games prior to being left out.

Let's get Jimmy Philips and David Lee till the end of the season because I don't know what Mr Freedman is trying to do but it is not working and there is no confidence at all in the players.

All season we have had soul searching from them as to where it has gone wrong or how it can be cured.

When our manager says we are undefeated in 2014 as a boast when we have only drawn two home games and won a cup match - that is not good enough.

All the teams below us picked up points.

BEWARE!
