Good win that. Done them time and again on set pieces and rode out a rough patch that saw Millwall hit the bar at 2-1.
Scrappy game at times but I'm just glad to beat Millwall after I don't know how many draws.

Unless we develop brown I can’t see us signing anyone. Just would give us more balance. Morrison is like a fish out of water as soon as he strays from a central positionQuote:

All 8 league goals so far this season have been headers. Comedy gold. Big Mick must be elated having inherited the likes of Moore, Flint and Morrison. All he had to do was find someone who could cross the ball. Giles was available, job done.
Unless injuries play a part, it will be a great surprise to me if City can’t bludgeon their way into the playoffs.
Top scorer. Top 2 for assists. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football...ip/top-scorers
just got back and pretty much agree with that .wasn't pretty but effectiveQuote:

Interesting to see what the Mail Online has decided to lead with. They surprise me now and again. Like when they decided to become the Fleet Street champions of the Stephen Lawrence campaign. Highlights the ugly position Millwall and Rowett have taken on anti-racist protests. Otherwise the Mail Online is reliably a right wing, little Engerland, Tory rag. Decent match report, though.
It'll hold while we win games. Same as the promotion season when Warnock team got off to a flier and then kept plugging away.. People seem to accept shit football if we win because winning is all that matters, I'd rather we played a little better, and before the usual suspects trot out their usual lines about tippy tsppy football, I'm not suggesting we over pass the ball, but I'd like to see us a lot more comfortable on the ball and not panic hoof so much, wing play is fine but some games it's all we do and sometimes it's obvious, would be nice to switch it up and get the ball passed about in midfield, the odd tomlinesque through ball and late runs into the box by midfielders.Quote:

I'm also not arsed that I goals have been headers. It's nice to see us cross the ball and utilise strengths we have in the pitch. Hardnto swap pack or Ralls but I'd like to see a bit more of Wintle, we won't though because he would need time to get up to speed and I don't think we can afford that, a braver team might take the risk.
Just got back. WTF did I just see? The first half from hell, Flint score another 2 and a monk in The Canton Stand (who was also outside Tesco Express after the game)!
+ We were able to give 64 minutes to Harris and Colwill
+ Were able to give 90 minutes to Sang and Bagan
+ Kieffer got his first 90 minutes this season
+ Won the game with 30 minutes of Flint, Pack, Giles and Morrison
I'm happy enough with that :thumbup:
There were plenty of our lot booing too and yes, I hate to say it, a decent match report.Quote:

Aden Flint's on fire; your defence is terrified!Quote:

As for Flint I would rather him nod them in for us than someone else
Its not pretty but that's the hand we have
Bluebirds
I laughed at another 3 headed goals.
However its a great skill in delivery and execution to score.
Dont know why its comedy gold executing what we are really good at.
The game changed when we brought Bacuna and Giles on. Colwill and Harris were pretty ineffectual today. Bagan had a bit of a stinker in the first half as well.
I love a good headed goal . The sealer at Blackpool was fantastic .Quote:

There was a brief period right at the start of the game when we had possession and were passing the ball around on the floor. A bloke in the row behind me stood up and started heckling our players: "Get the ball forward, for ****'s sake." I think they must have heard him.
Some good plus points.Quote:

I thought they were the only ones to actually try and play football. The rest were stuck in the knock it into the corners , or hit it up to Keiffer and hope he wins it , controls it, sets something up all at the same time.Quote:
