OttawaSaint Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 Is it even possible to prove our fannying about at the back was effective in the Champ. How do we know that the fannying led to us winning? All we know is fannying costs us easy goals and points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kraken Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 7 minutes ago, OttawaSaint said: Still fannying around at back. Suicidal in Champ, fucking ludicrous at the Ethiad. 3 minutes ago, Matthew Le God said: It was very effective in the Championship. it may have been effective going forwards, it wasn’t effective in defence. We shipped 63 goals in 46 games, 13 sides in the division had a better defensive record than that. For a side that finished 4th it certainly wasn’t effective in keeping the ball out of our own net. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a fundamental factor in our build up play. And how can you prove that playing in a different style wouldn’t have got more goals, less conceded and more points. It’s a crap ‘style’ monotonous and boring. Have you been watching today how we skillfully get from the edge of the City area and eventually fanny our way back to Ramsdale. From the Opposition area. Absolute crap football. Pathetic, pointless and all driven by an obsessive manager who thinks he’s so smart that he’s bulletproof. He has not discovered a new way of playing. He is not an under the radar genius. He’s a man with an overinflated ego who just will not change. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobsmith Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 Martin claims this style of football is the most attractive. Not the way he implements it. Sideways and backwards at every opportunity, and possession for possessions sake until we give the ball away. The sooner he's sacked the better 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
