There are so many variations, if I was younger, I would write a Thesis on it. It's laughable, fans come on message boards and think they are the font of all wisdom saying "ee's got no plan B" . B for Boring.

Much as I love what the owners have done, I think they need to appraise the strategy. Year 1 in League 2, let's see what the players can do. Year 2, improve the obvious defensive frailties. Good work . Year 3, we've seen what it takes. Let's upgrade, and this will involve difficult personnel decisions
Over to the board.
Plan b was simply punting the ball forward by Bass. Midfielders didnt move up the park, no one supported whoever was going to get the shove in the back from a defender. The punt was hardly ever over the last defender so there was no chance of running on to it....

Plan b - you make me laugh
