I think you can very rarely question the effort of the players. I feel that there is something underlying which is to blame for the sub par performances and complete inconsistency from one game to the next.

Of course, once they cross the white line, it is ultimately down to the players. However, I've always felt there is something lacking under Revs. You can see the frustration in some of the lads, imagine how Reid and Phoenix feel for example being so hopelessly isolated in attacking situations.

The tactics are naive. Changes are too slow and reactive/predictable. The decision today to revert to a 4 was made out of fear.

People were discussing how many points they were hoping for from the 3 home games to allay concerns, but it has always been about performances for me. Tuesday was incredible. Whether we had won, lost or draw I was much happier with what I was watching (albeit we seem to have the blueprint of how to play against Peterborough). I won't get into the entertainment vs results argument but even when we were winning it wasn't always pretty and I often felt like we were relying on a piece of individual brilliance or a goal from a set piece (which we haven't been particularly threatening from lately)
