I think I can speak for most of us when I say, nobody really likes to pause the league for the international break. I try to get into watching England, but let's face it. We'd rather be watching the glorious Cherries.
This season we have had four international breaks
Aug 30, Sep 7: A fairly slow start to the season, on the back of the opening day(s) of a cup win and a home opener draw, we won twice and then stuttered to two draws and a humping in the League Cup. Came back and won 4 on the bounce
Oct 4, Oct 12 : leading up to the window we are on a roll. Still unbeaten in the league and rolling into the break with 4 wins in 5. Came back and won 4 on the bounce
Nov 8, Nov 16 : The unbeaten run is over, we lost at home to Preston but we had bounced back with a 4-0 win against Swansea leading up to the break we still managed 12 points from 15 with 4 clean sheets. Came back and got 3 points from 12
Mar 21, Mar 29 : Not a fabulous run by any means. Only 2 wins in 5, but, with the boos, and the messages out of the club, and the manager saying the handbrake is off we go into the break with an emphatic win in a 3rd vs 2nd battle. Came back and TBD
Which break do you think came at the wrong time? Personally can't look past the Nov break. Perhaps we could have gone into the next game after beating Swansea with some momentum, It's no doubt that our form slumped after that window.
However, I would have loved to have seen us playing BC on the Tuesday or Saturday after our win last weekend though.
**I may have fucked up with the stats.
