First thread so don't be too harsh everyone!!
In my opinion the defence has been getting harsh criticism over the last few weeks, not least mcceverly who has been steady and plenty good enough with his composure but many have decided to have him as the scapegoat for some reason. Especially against Peterborough, where they were holding strong but then the midfield gave the ball away sloppily and then gave their player time on the edge of the box to find the bottom corner. Had this not happened i would have been confident of them holding on for a welcome clean sheet.
Oh and on the Peterborough note very poor team selection from clough, changing the formation when six games unbeaten and playing our only two fit strikers without leaving any in reserve on the bench giving him no option but to make negative changes.
