Piq/Bridge/Obinna all in the game because Keen was daft enough to put out a team/send out subs that - on paper - could get him the win he wanted to bolster his application, overlooking the facts that a) they wouldn't be giving a good f*** today, and b) they've (the starting eleven generally) hardly been a winning combo this season anyway. Winning today was meaningless but a good, spirited display by some of the players that may well be appearing next year was what was needed today. Keen has put his own interests before the club's, and - oh, so predictably - it's bitten him in the ballbags. IMO.
Awful. Of course. But Sears, Spence and Hines (why oh why did Keen choose to keep Piq??) was the only three I saw some energy from.... They did ok. Would like to see younext year. (Collison was not match fit and Hitz had something else in mind. The defence was awful.)
Thanks for everything Scott!!!

How many times this season have we conceded 3 goals in a match ? Quite a lot, I know that much and if you do that and can't score at the other end, you have absolutely no chance of ever staying up in that league

How so? Or is my maths failing me (again)? I make winning the last two 39 points but inferior goal difference = still down.
You're maths is failing you - won the last 2 and our goal difference would have been minimum -21 and Wigan's would have been -23. We'd been ahead of Birmingham on goals scored.
