WE still have a chance of making the play-offs even after a bad defeat like the one at Barnsley!

But what the hell are we playing at leaving out Etuhu and bringing back a less than fit Mark Rankine?

And why bring a player in on loan, tell him if he makes a good impression he could win a contract, then leave him on the bench until the game is almost lost?

Surely Ainsworth should have been on from the start on Monday and not just replacing a very ineffective Lee Cartwright.

This was, truly, one of the worst displays of the season: we can't expect to keep winning matches when we only play for 45 minutes.

We only got away with it against Portsmouth due to some diabolical finishing on their part.

To be fair to the present team manager this is not a new problem.

Too often this season we've had to recover from a "slow start" sometimes gaining a draw from games we should really have won. (Walsall at home right at the start of the season is one game that springs to mind).

It's games such as these, and not just a turned down penalty appeal, that might cost us that play-off place.

Coventry on Saturday is a very big game. We need to win it, and if we play the whole 90 minutes we're capable of doing just that.
