YES / NO.....?
And that's with a rubbish manager and Sunday league players - and a stupid chairman.....imagine how we would play leaving that manager for 3 years...
It was a game of quality where the players were getting to grips with the systems the more intelligent teams play.
If AS was the manager against Reading the points would have been ours !
Wardy had more success upfront against Newcastle than two forwards had against Reading "chasing down" the ball like headless chickens. So much for 4 4 2 against quality teams....bye the way - Brown trains with Chelsea....he knows at that level - chasing the ball is futile !
But how many on here want to see 2 players chasing shadows - like they did against Reading...lol
Wardy - with Brown in support with other midfielders counter attacking had far more success....We scored the perfect counter attacking goal v Huddersfield
There is no subtlety on this site - the MILLWALL Dicko stealer will send us down playing football like a toe to toe boxer v Tyson - NOT a good idea !
Sunday league tactics that satisfies the less informed majority of fans on here.
We are in the big boys league and AS was getting there - barring individual player mistakes - and he was weeding the bad apples out....Halford causing two goals v Birmingham.
Some fans are happy now - the manager waves to them......and that just about sums some of them up !
