I'm probably in a minority but i didn't read it like that. He's not saying we're not good enough to get there, he said his chance might have been taken away. Whilst i'm confident in our team i know its going to be a big scrap to go up and the bookies odds are around 6/4 to 2/1 that we go up...
Whilst i know what you mean, some part of me would love these issues in January as it no doubt would mean that we're playing well and right up in the mixer. You usually only get interest in your players if they're playing well
