+ Important 3 points.

- Looking like we are burning out.

This is going to be a very very nervy run in.

P: The way we played first half
N: The way we played second half

I don't think we are suffering burnout it had just been a hectic couple of weeks. The 9 days off after Friday should see us right. A lot of players will be carrying little niggles and knocks and that is what will be impacting them rather than physical exhaustion. 2 or 3 days between games often don't allow niggles and knocks to disappear, you then usually get a knock on the same area that is hurting. Playing with a knock can easily knock you off your game, even by just a small amount. But with the games coming so qucik you jsut have to soldier on through it or the manager would be having to make half a dozen changes each match.

+ Loving the look and energy of Joseph
- Nearly a draw and dropping two points (not complaining about our performance...just think it's a quick run of games and small injuries are getting to us)
In Farke we trust...

Pos. 31 points out of 33 and still unbeaten at home.

Neg. Nerves starting to affect the squad?

been saying similar for the whole season so far, it’s not going to happen. Norwich, hull, Southampton and possibly Coventry will be tough games for them, win all those and it’s hard to deny they deserve promotion.

P - another 3 points

N - we looked leggy second half, after what’s been a lot of games lately, the break between the Wednesday and Millwall games will be very welcome.

Seeing we bossed the first half I don't see how he got the starting line up wrong.
They had one long range effort in that half while we created enough to go in 3 up.

Indeed if we took our chances then the game would have been over, as a contest, by half time, and we could have coasted to victory. At only 1-0 the game was there for Stoke to give it more of a go and again if we were clinical second half we had enough chances to put the game to bed. We allowed Stoke to grow intot he match by not killing them off and also with how cheaply we gave possession back to them, especially Rutter who continually lost the ball and denied us the opportunity to simply keep possession and slow things down.
