After the disappointing performance on Saturday quite a few on here made him their personal scapegoat! If you can’t see that that’s your inability to see the obvious. Overall Mitchell had a disappointing game on Saturday which cost us dearly but to level him as a scapegoat for our relegation is poor judgement I feel.
Maybe it's me but I thought a scapegoat is someone who gets unfairly blamed for the mistakes of others?
I'm not doing that and nor is anyone else so far as Mitchell is concerned. Like others I'm suggesting that if he was of better quality he would have saved more shots and prevented more goals. That is his job and his job only, and if he had been more successful at it we would have stayed up, no question.
That's distinctly different from a teams inability to score goals and strikers being unfairly scapegoated for it when the problem is much deeper rooted.
