  • On way home

    Much better second half when Holloway eventually went back to a back 4, he changes formation to much for my liking,pick a formation and stick with it, promising debut from Smith who wins everything in the air, good start for Freeman who looked a tricky,busy little player, Lua Lua adds pace and skill upfront and I would start him ahead of Mackie.

    As a team will need to learn to keep possession and far to often give the ball away too cheaply, our old friend Loungo again watch the game pass him by and I personally would bench him, to me he adds nothing to the side, huge penalty shout on 85 mins for handball, when all the loft and half the fans in Ellerlisle appeal in unison it must have been close.

    Saw enough especially second half to believe we will stay up, but we do need to start picking points up ASAP

      Always a very honest assesment and never a knee jerk reaction to anything.

          Video shows it was very very clearly a handball.

                      have to agree with OP. Only thing I'd add is we should stop admiring the opposition and get at them from the off, we had them rattled in the 2nd half
                      I must away now, I can no longer tarry
                      This morning's tempest I have to cross
                      I must be guided without a stumble
                      Into the arms I love the most

                          Agree with your assessment Romford - the two second half subs made a huge difference. Freeman looks like a tasty player and our performance second half gave me hope, whereas at the end of the 1st half I felt despair. We really, really should have had a deserved equalizer, but for their ridiculous luck - we were battering them at the end, and the blindness of the ref and linesmen in not seeing that blatant handball. Not the greatest result as a birthday present, but I saw enough second half to feel okay about it. Freeman and LuaLua to start from now on please.

                            Simply not true. Just a cliche.

                              This has been a concern since he arrived. We needed tactical flexibility and is absolutely essential to have more than one game plan but I suspect Olly doesn't know his best set up and that uncertainty communicates itself to all of us, players included. Since he's been here I think we've seen at least four and possibly five different formations. Experimentation is for training - sooner or later decisions have to be made.
