⚽ Match Thread vs. Newport County AFC 23.11.24 [EFL L2]

It's certainly not the free flowing attacking football we got used to under Williams.

Despite our clear dominance on Saturday you would not call it all that entertaining (as it has not been for the last couple of months). I know at the end of the day it's a results business but if you fail to entertain without winning consistently the attendances will eventually catch up with the product on offer.

Feels like Maynard went all in on fixing the defence and goalkeeper and our general play without the ball, with the assumption that we had a couple of really creative individuals so goalscoring was never going to be a problem. Having lost them we don?t have really set patterns of play or anything to fall back on in attack.

I agree with this but feel that there is a reluctance to actually shoot when there is an opportunity, players will try to set up someone else who might have a better angle or something only for everything to get shutdown before the intended person actually gets the ball.
