You have the apologists that say we can't play a more expansive game but we've not even tried. If this is the case then get a man in who can and use all the money we are paying to try to achieve this. Giving money to Harris to carry on in the Warnock vein (long throw anyone) is wasted money as whenever the new man comes in it will be a case of rip it up and start again. Then again given who would be picking the new guy we're probably scouring the leagues to find somebody who doesn't create much from general play, plays for set pieces and lumps it in to the big fellas and hopes for the best.

Some people are of the opinion that our team can't play a more expansive game. If you check virtually every signing we have made they played a more expansive style at their former club prior to coming here. It sadly isn't all that difficult. If this style was taking us up automatic or even getting a play off spot it might excuse it. It isn't and the run of 4 wins only serves to paper over the cracks.
We did try to play more possession football earlier in the season. The results were not good, which is why Harris switched to 4-4-2 and going more direct. You can demand that we play a more expansive game as much as you like, but it isn't going to happen until we find some unsuspecting clubs to take Pack and Vaulks off our hands and we sign a couple of replacement who can actually pass the ball.
