Not that it takes much working out to beat us.
Use pace and keep the ball on the floor to beat the defenders.
Outrun and outpass the midfield, be first to the ball in defence. Head clear anywhere as there won’t be anybody picking it up.
We complain there is no pace in the team going forward, which is so true, but the lack of pace, urgency and sharpness in midfield and at the back is also startling.

We are slow, ponderous, fragile and blunt.

You're right, teams have worked us out... Any pace, running at us or smart balls behind us and we crumble. Teams have also worked out how to deal with our set pieces... Stop them, frustrate them and stop Morrison, flint and Moore any movement.

Some of us have been saying for some time that be cant base our whole approach on long balls and set pieces .. some on here even shot us down claiming it's effective... It's not.

When we got promoted under NW at least he knew we needed some pace and guile in the team to hit teams on the break... Also home many games did we play poorly, have limited possession only for Junior to come up with a wonderful strike...plenty.

Sadly MM and the transfer committee have stripped all pace and flair out of the team which of course puts more pressure and exposes the defence.... There is no one to run onto hopeful balls and we just give possession away.

Given the context of the division we are in, I would say this is the most disappointing squad we have had for many many years.
