after that performance or lack of it the new management team have their work cut out to keep us up,this is the worst witton side i’ve seen in 40 years.
We still need better players than seen today, young loanees will not help us at this point in time nor will players who have been poor here before, very early days I know but today was dire and one up front at home is soul destroying, could say more but will bite my tongue hard. Not a good day at the office !
