A couple of weeks ago was a real opportunity to bring in some cover to help push for a league challenge. Whilst we are still not out of the race by a long shot, the injuries and tiredness is clearly kicking in and it’s now affecting our results. Our performances of late have the look of a good team that is running out of gas.
I feel that with this huge schedule just started we urgently need support. Guys like Hendrix are clearly struggling (injured?) and are not having the impact they were. We look mentally drained. I think another body right now would go a long way. Whilst I don’t think we have made money this season (can you in a tent like ours?!), I think the crowds are probably up on what they expected. I’ve seen more merchandise on fans this year than ever before. A CC quarter final and now semi final will be two more gates for us to reap.
In some respects we are not quite there as a league title winning team but to give this year’s loyal fan base something to cheer until the end of the season would be fantastic. I’ve never favoured us for the league this year and still don’t but we will certainly have a say in who does. Where we have a huge opportunity to win some silverware in the CC but at the moment I am not favouring us against a rejuvenated Coventry.
