Would you prefer to win regardless of the way we play. sctatchinghead Would you rather we played attacking football score 1st then defend our goal and maybe grab a 2nd on the break. sctatchinghead Or would you prefer open entertaining games with goals for and against like yesterday's 4-3 win. I personally would always opt for entertainment even if we conceded a much higher percentage of goals over the season. Keegan almost got it spot on at Newcastle 4-3 wins one week 3-2 next game etc. In the Premier league it's a much bigger risk playing open attacking football. In this league if you have the attacking players like we have you can do all out attack and if they score 1st so what we need 2 and so on. If we score 1st we just keep going for that 2nd and so on. It would not be everyone's idea of winning promotion but it's well doable at this level with these players. If it worked well enough overall the crowds would be in the 6,000s surely. What do you prefer sctatchinghead

obviously winning is first and foremost, but yes would like us to try and attack and create---with Sarll we have the worst of both worlds...appalling football to the nth degree and shite results as well

There has to be a way of making us more solid without completely giving up on trying to attack which is what we have been doing

I think we need to go for the jugular, start fast and bag a couple of goals early- particularly at home. We can then manage the game by introducing a more defensive element later on.

Where as when we're away, stay compact and hit them on the break. It might even be that we have different starting 11's for home and away games. sctatchinghead

Simple answer….surely we all want wins and entertainment and not lethargic grim siege tactics and one goal a game.
We do actually go to be entertained, not just endure a mechanical method of harvesting points.

Kill teams off in the first half - play football in their half and then keep hold of the lead.

just dont like this parking of the bus and inviting pressure - its all we did last season and we lost a few times cos of it too

unlike last season the only positive is we haven,t thrown points away after the 80 minutes mark again and please no clever dicks replying we haven,t got points to lose.
