End of the day the season has been defined by two things IMO:
1. Not beating crap teams. At the very least, we should have 4 points from the Wolves H (they were crap at the time) and Leicester A games having thrown away two goal leads in last few minutes. 4 more points would make Europe likely...
Evidently the A27 roadworks put a lot off using today as it was hardly half full, just getting into D.
