We simply cannot pass, let alone pass and move.
I said I'd reserve judgement until tonight's game. We are a poor non footballing outfit, who cannot get basics right.
The club, from top brass to the players on the pitch are ripping the enjoyment out of every game.

We are like a team in two minds keep possession inside own half and then try quick football but it seems everytime start play well we go back to possession football and that means ending up playing long balls... every pundit on sky when covering our games say we've changed our style? And there lies the problem we cannot make our mins up how we want to play for 90mins.

Spot on Allan, we are schizophrenic.
We start 4231 but with full back who barely overlap the half way line forget about the wide forward , Pack come deep to get the ball, Ralls drifts wide to provide an outlet and there are acres of space in the middle. The wide forwards are inverted so they run to goal to support Moore, but never really travel beyond him.
We flip to 442 and keep the wingers inverted. There is no option of the flick on as Glatzel isn't really a sprinter and the inverted winger are still not very close, at least the full backs started crossing the half way line. Josh always cuts onto his right and Harry right isn't as good as his left.
Brizzle done a job on us and that's fine. We don't have a goal threat. A frustrating season on the TV I guess. We won't sack Harris

Well unfortunately we don't have a footballing board. We have a business man at the top who only knows business and football is not the business he is used to. I honestly believe with these guys in charge this is the best its going to be for us until they are gone.

Is that the only owner and board in recent times who have actually got us to the premier league?

Exactly, its also the owner with now over a decade of experience running a top level British football team and multiple others across the world.
He was inexperienced 10 years ago , now he knows the business side of it inside out and has a very good knowledge of British football. Probably better than anyone on this board on how football actually works from the inside not just a fan looking in

This is the owner who has attended about six games in three years? And the chairman who aspired to buy another club?

Overall, We are a mid-table side who will have a few good results but revert back to type. There needs to be a change in the whole thinking around the club. To slow, no creativity, revert to long ball.![]()
