Last season we started with a 1-1-5 league record in our first seven games, so similar to this season's 1-2-4. After 12 games our record was 1-3-8 and I must admit I was one of many calling for his head. Then last season we finished with an impressive 8-3-2 run and it seemed possible, with a modicum of improvement to the squad, we could be promotion challengers in 2019/20.
So what happened? A handful of decent performances to start don't seem to be continuing. Both defence and attack are getting flak and some formations are bemusing. The squad has certainly changed and it's reasonable to say we have some talented individuals, but are we stronger than we were last May?
I promised myself at the end of last season I'd be behind KR, and he deserves more time to turn things around (again), but I'm finding OUFC as bemusing as the Brexit debacle at the moment.
