Friday,tuesday,friday

[wavy-blade]

I am as mad as anyone after that performance , Thought Wilder was correct and honest in his summary of the match , but after thinking about the resent games perhaps we have played to much football , we were well off it tonight and that's the only reason I can come up with , I know they earn a lot of cash and they have got a brill life style , but when you knackered , your knackered !!

WHAT WORRIES ME IS THAT THE NEXT 4 ARE, SAT , TUESDAY MATCHES

Hull played same amount of games and on same schedule. Quite a lot of United's players did not play last Friday. Fleck not played for 2 weeks. If players cannot handle the schedule they are not fit/good enough.

Everyone knew the schedule. Everyone knew that we were up against tougher teams. Personally don't think we have the squad to ride through a never ending fixture list without missing the odd injured player. The past couple of months is to be expected really. Great first 4 months kinda glossed over reality. Still think we will finish top 10 though. Great really.

I'll never understand this 'the players must be tired playing two games in a week' bollocks.
I wonder how tired they'd be working six days on a building site in all weathers, or down the pit, steelworks etc.
It's a poor excuse.

They were relaxing at Forest Pines before the game, here's me naively thinking they'd make the 70 mile trip from Sheffield this afternoon?

I was at the ticket office yesterday, saw the coach leave the Lane about 11.30.

They were there from about 13.30 apparently, relaxing, taking things easy and having a meal before leaving about half six for the KC Stadium, where things continued on a similar theme for a further ninety minutes

Adkins made 5 changes rested more players and they looked fresher so you could argue we didnt change enough
But the main thing in the last 14 games is the pressure is on , only villa and fulham
won out of the top 9 today
so its not just us feeling it
