To me, that moment when their left back tore through straight from kick off after half-time was the moment the wheels came off our season. They were nowehere near us first half, our dominance was almost embarrassing.
But Warnock got them fired up and suddenly their tails were up. They walked through for a second and suddenly all the defensive frailties we'd seen earlier in the season were on display. Our automatic promotion hopes were over but more important, that chink of doubt crept in.
It could all have been so different.
Perhaps we can put it right on Saturday. There's no doubt Warnock will be absolutely bursting to try and do a number on us and if they manage to nick the first goal you worry our young players might go into our shells. Got to hope Howson is on the pitch, and especially that McGree is back in. We need experience and bravery on the pitch - the performance is secondary. With new players to bed in you can't expect miracles, but we absolutely need to get a result and have the fans believing. UTfB!
