I agree about excuses, however the players we currently have are putting the effort in. No one is booing anyone off the pitch as in previous seasons because the supporters can see that the players are giving their all for the shirt.
What that says is we need new blood. January will be a busy time, hopefully Warnock can spend the money sensibly - when we spend a lot (Akinbiyi, Horsfield combined cost £3m) we seem to get little back.
I would be unhappy if the team were playing badly but to be honest, they got booed off a few times last season during the promotion season so the performances they are putting in now are improved ones with mostly the same players.
