    Slightly concerning the amount of possession we give up but things are looking a lot better than a month ago. Smithies an absolute legend.
    I thought Sylla did put the effort in and got a few good touches. A pretty useful player, but maybe impact sub type?

      This was a match which many of us would have feared us getting beaten badly not too long ago, I think Ollie has got us going in the right direction making us harder to beat!

            Definitely playing with a bit of heart now. Nice to see a bit of fight (literally) at the end there, on & off the the pitch. Been missing that passion for quite a while now.

              I'm a little bit confused because I thought we were very poor today: lost possession all the time, didn't put two passes together and our attacking game was as bad as ever. Yet all the others here seem to think we played well? Funny game.

                You are clearly not used to well executed pressing counter-attack football.

                  Yea I'm on the side of disagreeing with you but I can see why you think that. Think the gameplan was to pressure their defence into making a mistake by playing high balls and having runners. Basically exactly how we scored our goal. This was the point going into the season too, that JFH didn't have the type of player to play a more possession based game and Ollie is following through with that, just adding some heart (Having Mackie back at his best has helped a lot too).

                  I thought for that first half, we made them look absolutely amateurish. Passing around with no real goal and not being comfortable whenever we got close to them. Luongo and Manning doubling up on players and Mackie joining in. On any other day we'd have scored more as well.

                    Certainly the game plan was the same as at Reading but there we had about 10 good counter attacks, but today - 0?

                      We had three of four good counters we just chose wrong option

                        Yeah passing to Sylla.


                        Seriously though, there was a lot of breaks and Mackie was always just marginally off side. Some were so close.

                            Was that a counter attack?
