Peter Wild was the manager in the classic example of what happens when you stop playing..
3-2 loss at Halifax 0-2 up, them down to 10, we let them score 3 to win. That was when IB's side made it clear they just wanted the game over and stopped playing.
It's an interesting tactic. Imagine a fight, 1 guy lays into another, the other takes a beating and acts submissive, the first guy stops, thinks it's over....and that's when the 2nd starts fighting and the 1st just isn't ready any more. A bit like Mohamed Ali and his rope-a-dope
The old adage is win your home games and draw your away games and you won’t go far wrong. The trouble with me is I’ve got used to winning away from home under LW.
We were poor today and picked up a point against a difficult team on not the greatest pitch. Not a disaster. Just need to win next week.
Meanwhile I'm in London and had completely forgotten you can't watch online from the UK. Doh.
