The "Why we didn't get promoted" excuses thread.

Lack of Orlandi who is by far our most creative player.

Problems with our third - attacking/creative midfielder. orlandi injured. Kemy (our highest paid player according to some) a massive disappointment. JFC not up to it. Lua Lua and Solly not quite working out.

I think this thread will be redundant.

Trust me.

Oscars dog ate the teamsheet

We left the goal scorer on the bus?

 

[OzMike]

Season plagued with injuries, players showing no commitment at times, complacency against lower teams etc.

 

[Sheebo]

Were we meant to go up then? Bookies didn't think so!

Think of two recent games; Ipswich at home, the fans got on Jonny Williams case, and he played well to help Ipswich to beat us. Then Blackpool, the fans got on Dobbie's back and he scored to equalise.

It's the fans fault. It's YOUR fault. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Luck. It's the difference between 19th and 5th place.

Lack of guile if not pace.We missed Orlandi , Lopez (on form ) and the pace of Buckley.IMO this was the reason for the lack of goals,which was our undoing.

Sorry I didn't think you'd choke against Derby.

But hey, rather than Selhurst Park you'll have Griiffin Park, and with any luck rather than Dean Hammond Dean Cox, and Russ rather than Gus.

True. No trip to the shithole that is Norwood. That's cheered me up, thanks.
