To explain how we didn’t win the game is beyond me. To say that we dominate the game barely begins to cover it.
Not in real life, not in this odd alternative life and not on any incarnation of this game. I have never seen anything like it in my life. Gary Fisken, my £700,000 steal from Barnet, returns to the midfield and it’s a final game for Pavel Srnicek before the return of Richard Wright from lengthy four game suspension. It’s at home and we need to take the initiative. Four points from the first three games is absolutely average and we should be a bit more than that now. They always finish in the top six, they always have goals in them, but they can never quite kick on. After three years under Terry Venables they’ve only won the UEFA Cup and that was back in 2002. They are always tough opposition, but they have very little to show for their consistent strength. And it’s not going to get easier this month. As anti-climaxes go, this is straying into Shevechenko at Chelsea territory. Three games, just the one win and a big, shiny stadium that we can’t fill. This glorious new era has been anything but glorious so far.
