Seems that we use the long ball tactic in matches the 7th Least often in the Championship..
Surprisingly the teams that use the long ball least are Preston, Stoke, Wigan and Barnsley - in that order... Not too surprised about Preston but the other three?
The biggest culprits of using route one are believe it or not -
Huddersfield, Fulham, Hull and West Brom!
Just goes to show that "one club doesnt fit all", in that you have clubs succeeding using (primarily), both strategies and also failing, ditto.Quote:
