Twenty-four hours later and I am feeling more philospohical about our latest defeat. We remain in fourth place and in touch with the leaders. We have another two games this week, away at Cardiff who have a poor home record (W2 D3 L4) and home to Ipswich who have an equally bad away record (W0 D4 L5). Watford lost again at home and West Brom could only get a point at Palace. If our players truly believe they are good enough to get promoted then they will be hurting like us and embarrassed like us. Let's see how they respond this week.
West Brom in the 3rd Round at The Valley
After the last month's home form, Alan Pardew would probably have opted for an away cup draw. However it wasn't to be and we have the Baggies at the Valley. Should be a decent tie and we can look forward to slipping out un-noticed in an acceptable 1-2 defeat.
The Big Bet
The Big Bet went down the Swanny; Blackburn and Plymouth did the business but Reading and Man City were held and Sheffield Wednesday lost at home to Colchester! I remain convinced that I will get a win before Christmas.
Championship Results
Managed a meagre four correct results (One correct score) and four others within a goal of correct scores. The division continues to throw surprises; apart from Charlton and Watford both losing for consecutive home games (yes, our defeat was still a surprise), Sheffield United won at Coventry and Southampton won at Leicester. Colchester were also surprise winners at Sheffield Wednesday where the MotM Curse has struck again.
