At the time of my post it was more a reflection of the immediate reaction to the loss and I was trying to compare that to how that reaction would have been different had the crossbar not got in the way, albeit the performance would have been the same.
But all in all I did feel a draw was a fair result and I stand by that, which doesn't really change the general drop off we have experienced over the last few months or how poor the game was. That said, we are still in the mix and the quality around us (bar one or two maybe) isn't outstandingly better, so a not insignificant improvement could be enough to see us through.
But yes, in all honesty I don't think we are anywhere close to competing in the Championship. I just assumed it would be a mid table season this year and was pleasantly surprised at how we started.
As you say, lets see what other signings might come into the building this week.
