Over the worst – or the tip of the iceberg?

There’s no getting away from it is there? It’s been a difficult time. However, our recent run would seem to indicate the worst is over, while backing up the theory that injuries and lack of form have played a key component of this tumultuous season.

We’re 24 games into this season and if you take the progress so far in blocks of 6 games our points % has been 67%, 39%, 44% and 78% (75% was needed to win the premiership last season). I don’t need to put those results into a graph for you to a) see the dip, or, b) see that we are now recovering. In fact we have picked up more points in the last 6 games than at any other point in the season. We’ve also kept 5 clean sheets and only conceded 1 goal in 540 minutes of premiership football – a clear indicator that our defensive lapses could well be a thing of the past.
