    How we are playing and how good a game is are two different things.

    For a clear idea just how that half was, the atmosphere has been utterly sucked out of the sides of the stadium, including the away end. I mean nothing much happened of note, some of the passing in our own box was madness, and whenever a chance between lines did come= over hit or poor pass.

     

    At the same time, as the away side i imagine players and management will be pleased. Birmingham have been more or less nullified and what little threat there is has come from us 

    I thought the atmosphere was particularly poor on my dodgy Belarusian stream, sounds flat as anything. Rooneyball putting the Northerners in a coma clearly.

  2. I work in heritage protection and it’s astonishing it wasn’t listed, football association & pub combo are always hard to convince HE/EH of their significance though. 
     

    Still a crying shame culturally that it was demolished.

    Special little Cameo mention for Wells. 

    Came on, held the ball well, slowed it down,  when we needed to 

    Wholly under appreciated forward, really intelligent professional, never going to be a 20 goal a season striker, but has all that nous and experience you need in the Championship. When to slow it down, when to turn, when to run, when to move, similar to James in that kind of pure football intelligence.

    I’m going to say again - less possession (42%) and less passes than the opposition but doing a lot more with it. Playing with pace and winning the ball high up the pitch. It’s a different team stylistically from the Boro, QPR, Norwich, Hudds games. That Blackburn game was the rubicon - senior players moaning on Robins TV and when we played more assertive second half, we looked like something.

    Its to LMs huge credit that he’s realised plan A wasn’t working and wasn’t likely to work so played to the strengths of the squad. That really gives confidence that a key question over him has been answered. Fantastic stuff today.

    A mango one perhaps?
