Perhaps even more than a "six-pointer ", this type of game has a job-threatening scenario for a number of people, not least for those players who show that they can't put in a good shift against a top 6 side (regardless of win, lose or draw). If we suffer another 5 goal massacre, then surely time will have run out for Pellegrino (despite the Boards re-assurances. ) If that happens, and we don't have a replacement on Tuesday moring, I think that KD can carry the can for a week or two (especially as he knows the inside of the dressing room as well as anyone at the club). One point would be a "stay of execution" for many, and a convincing " revenge win " against Watford in the Cup next weekend may steady the ship for a little while. It'll be time for a party ...or a wake ....on Monday morning. | |
