I don't think anyone is calling for a slow, tika taka style of play. But if you look at the teams that have gone up and stayed up for a few years (besides Stoke) they've mostly been good footballing sides.
Although I don't like "Warnockball", I try to reconcile my thoughts by telling myself that it is the most effective way to get the best out of our current group of players, but , I'm sorry, I just can't see any logic whatsoever in this part of our game - especially as our keeper is far from the best around with his distribution.
