As others have said we did do that more than a few times in the 2nd half, but it only actually resulted in an accurate pass on a couple of occasions, the rest sailed into the blue yonder. It was another thing that seemed to make the crowd somewhat, errr, restless shall we say. As did passing the ball around the back 3/goalkeeper when you're 2-1 down with 5 minutes to go. I spose that's the thing about Billyball, when it works it looks brilliant, but when you concede poor goals through sloppy passing and keep giving the ball away, it looks awful.
