If the above is true then that's very pleasing to see. Also interesting to hear Abbott confirm that they are fully aware of our teams are consistently approaching games against Notts with our system/approach.
Yes, it was kind of a relief to hear the management acknowledge the issues we’ve been having with high pressing teams....good to know they’re working on it. Let’s see how they go on. Like you said, credit to Ardley for addressing the problems for the 2nd half as the first 45 minutes were probably the worst so far this season.
