SOBS ON STORMS



Hard on the heels of a disappointing draw at ten-man Shrewsbury, the Lads and their followers travelled to Cambridge for the first time in nearly two decades and withstood a weather-fuelled onslaught in the second half to hold onto their 2-1 halftime lead. Goals from either Pritch direct from a corner, or an OG, depending on who you ask, and a thunderbolt from Broadhead, either side of Cambridge's equaliser, won us the points as the wind took charge of the game.


Now that we’ve had three days to digest the events of Tuesday evening, it can be seen that the fans are clearly in three camps. “Johnson must go”, “Johnson must stay”, and “you know what? I’m tired.”


Then, of course, there’s the Sunderland situation, which is pretty similar, but without references to Peppa Pig. Some have defended the decision to replace O’Brien with Evans, as that awkward Shrews player needed dealing with, while others, myself included, could only see the negativity in it. Keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is a sign of madness, and our constant changing of managers (or head coaches) hasn’t done us any favours – even though the club’s structure means that the head coach is just a very public piece
