Unfortunately I'm not really that surprised and not even that disappointed, it was kind of inevitable! The truth is we weren't good enough tonight, Wycombe deserved the win, they wanted it more than we did and they took their chances. Yes it would have been fun to see us on tv more but no doubt people would be coming on here moaning if we had gone up and were getting battered every week next season!
Yes we had all the possession tonight but we didn't convert it into goals, and we've gotta say honestly that we were slightly lucky to get past Pompey. I for one will wish Wycombe good luck next year, tho you kinda think they will need a lot of luck to not come straight back down. As we would have!
Yes it will be tough again for us next year, there will
be a lot of big teams coming into the league, and the finances along with talk of wage caps etc won't make it any easier, this realistically probably was our best chance for a long time to get up. But let's hope we're in a stronger position than some other clubs, apparently Tiger has a plan for now so let's hope he finally delivers on it.
We always have to sell players, as we did with Whyte, Fosu and Shandon yet we still gave it a decent go this year. We all know the team needs a good strengthening all over, as I for one think our squad didn't have enough depth ie full backs, wide players, too many central midfielders and Mackie as back up striker is unfortunately not gonna get us up. Trust in KR and the scouting team to do their thing, plenty more Sykes's and Whyte's our there if you know where to look.
With all that is going on in the world let's keep some perspective on life, and be grateful we are alive and kicking, and let us pray for those who have lost their lives due to this awful situation.
We still have a club to love and follow.
