Exactly, though defensively I think it is the system, you simply can’t play high if you don’t pressure the ball.
I’m still seething. Short pass, short pass, whip it over the head of Dunk and Webster.
Fab should have learnt after Palmer hit the post, the lack of reaction was really poor for me...
Were you there today @dazzer6666?
I know you go away regularly….. What did you think of it?
FWIW, defensively I thought it was shambolic, even our shape in midfield was non-existent.

Peter Alliss…….. just superb.
(Got to meet him at the seniors open, he was a lovely chap, took time out...
Excellent keeping or poor finishing?

Split second stuff to be fair.
