Thread: Start as we mean to carry on

  1. #1

    Start as we mean to carry on

    Aerial battles won - 25 (2/20)
    Pass success - 61% (18/20)
    Possession - 44.7% (15/20)
    Fouls - 15 (15/20)
    Long balls - 28.9% (2/20)
    Short passes - 71.1% (19/20)

    Anyone predicting these stats will change much and is that mere fact enough to say we need to be less predictable?

    Like looking at Boro’s stats under Pulis last year.

    The people who were clammering for Warnock to stay will deserve all that they get. Although in the minority, I was hoping for a totally different approach this season. Even if we get promoted, it won't be an enjoyable experience. Football has moved on, and there are only a few diehards left who are stuck firmly in the past.

    it is a method that has had success though, many will think " why change if it isnt broken "

    It wasn't.

    We let it slip away. It was painful to watch.

    The only way it changes if we purchase or play a different type of midfielder.

    Sounded like a crazy 15 minutes to start second half ! If we want to go up then we need a stronger centre midfielder who can control a game ! Sounded like game became too open and that doesn’t suit us as we don’t have the pace at the back to cope with that kind of game!
    Reid missed a good chance, they missed a soft penalty, Etheridge got injured and Day’s first 2 touches were picking the ball out of the net ...... defence sleeping on first goal , a combination of Morrison not closing Windass down effectively and Day positioning for second ? Although he may have been deceived by ball going thru Morrison? 3rd goal nothing Day could do but maybe we could have closed their player down quicker ?

    1. First game (see other results).
    2. Defence changes.
    3. First day back .
    4. Lost keeper at critical stage 5. Perhaps Bogle should have started, along with Tomlin.

    Exciting for the neutral, painful for a Cardiff City fan
