Mugged....again

Seems to be a bit of revisionism about how good we were under LW. I thought I was maybe misremembering so I checked a random game from Sept 2023. It was Forest Green. We won 4-3 against a team that eventually went down.

We managed - according to the stats - a total of 11 shots. Fortunately 4 went in. But we were hardly creating chances at will.

Week after we scored 4 again from 21 shots. Still less than yesterday. Unfortunately we managed to concede 5.

Week after at Barrow we managed 5 shots. That is not a typo.

Then it was Mansfield....

At Harrogate we broke the world record for the most passes back to the goalkeeper since it was made illegal to pick it up. The home fans cheered every one.

So I fail to see how the football now is so much worse. In fact I see enough evidence that we're prepared to vary it a bit which we certainly weren't under LW.

Excuse me for asking, but did you go to uni and graduate with an honours degree in cherry picking? I could easily cherry pick certain games which would suggest the opposite to yours, but I won't because I realise it would make me look a bit of a tw@t.

I was at the Harrogate away game last season, and it was so bad. There was a growing sense among the fans around that time that we'd be found out and had run out of ideas. I loved LW and would welcome him back, but there were signs towards the end of his reign that something wasn't right. His style of football was often exciting, but it could be frustrating too, and sometimes even embarrassing.

Like Sutton on the first day of the season..
