This fecker gets paid 30k a week, so yes he deserves some flack
Posted so many times Ballcock he?s not a no9 in any way shape or form tbf to him - lost sheep
I?m afraid up top on his own.

But what I will say is as long as we continue to play football in front of teams there will be more results like tonight?s - the stats read beautifully 60/70% possession but no penetration at all.

We can?t deliver balls into the box because no one wants to get on the end of them so we pass and pass and pass until we lose possession we retrieve the ball with decent press and then we pass some more.

A forward is required but a change of tact would be a big step forward in my opinion anyway - I think SP is more frightend to lose than he is to win.

I will say though a pattern is forming teams that come to block the hole up generally leave with a point but we don?t seem as though we can supply and answer.

It?s never easy playing against a side that doesn?t want to play , been there a few times and it?s frustrating- however the manager gets paid a lot of money to sort that so sooner rather than later would be appreciated
