This gets my vote for post of the season, General comment & of Saturdays match spot on.

It’s easier said than done Terry. The ball was hit into the channels plenty on Saturday. The problem was it was not accurate and most of the time went out for a throw in to the opposition. When it did get to our forwards, the first touch and hold up play was often lacking and without any wingers there was nobody to lay it off to besides the central midfield. 

I think we have a good style of play. I love it when we get it down and spread it wide and get at opposition fullbacks. I think we will be effective this season with overlaps when wingers cut inside and getting crosses in the box. Pumping the ball forward at every opportunity will not work consistently. 

I absolutely back Steve and what he’s doing with the team, but felt for sure they got it wrong on Saturday. The formation didn’t seem right or effective in anyway. The players were partly to blame too as first touches, passing, shooting and positioning was all quite poor.
