I'm getting really annoyed with fickle fans

Here's something worth bearing in mind.

If you cast your minds back to this point last year we were in a similar quandary. We got played off the park by Wigan at home and looked absolutely abysmal. The buildup was slow and predictable, creativity nonexistent, and we were dominated by a team that went on to get relegated.

We then proceeded to finish the season on 72 pts.

I'm not saying the last 3 games are an anomaly and we're bound to come good, but, much like this point last season, AVB has almost an entirely new first 11 to work with. The back 4 (not including Rose or Chiriches) Dembele, Sigg and Sandro aside, almost all of our players are new to either the PL, AVBs tactics, or both. Not to mention they aren't used to playing with one another. Perhaps we should give them a little more time before we start writing the team and the tactics off, eh? Look how last season worked out, albeit with the help of a certain Welshman.
