00:00I know supporters have their gripes. I wasn't too, you know, dejected by yesterday. I didn't

00:07think Albin had the best game, I didn't think he had the worst game either. We talked about

00:11it already, a tactical switch or a change of formation seemed to derail Albin a bit

00:15early in the second half and it was two very similar teams going at it. I just want to

00:20look at the situation as a whole. Albin dropped to eighth in the table yesterday. 32 points

00:26from 21 games. They're going along at just over 1.5 points per game. You know, they're

00:31in such a distance of the playoffs, it's very tight. You know, I think Albin's situation

00:39at the moment is okay. I think Albin's... if you'd have given me Albin's position now

00:45back in the summer, I would have been pretty happy. However, there's two reasons I think

00:51why the V1 Albion season is kind of skewed. One is that they won five out of six the first

00:55game. The next is that they drew 10 out of 11 games. I think if you mix all those results

01:01in together, say they had a couple of wins, a couple of draws, a defeat, a couple more

01:06wins, a defeat, a draw, three wins or whatever. You know, I'm running out of wins there, so

01:11I've only won seven out of 21 games. But I think if Albin's pattern of results was different,

01:18but it still brought you to 32 points after 21 games, I think people would be saying,

01:24the season's gone all right, Corbyn's doing an all right job. But I think because there's

01:28been such contrast in the results in terms of winning a ruck of games, you know, five

01:35out of those seven wins came in the first six games. I think it's kind of skewed many

01:42views of the season. And don't get me wrong, there's a lot that's gone wrong in those draws

01:48that could have been wins, you know. But I think if there was a different pattern of

01:55results from Albin's 21 games, a lot of people would have a different view.
