Just want to see some passion and attacking football. A win will rejuvenate hope.
Flat as my missus t**s at the moment.

It's also up to the players. Taylor can't stop them playing short passes into touch or their failure to be able to reach the penalty spot from a corner. They need to show some bottle.
It's all about preparation.Corner strategy is down to what happens on the training pitch.When to pass long or short during different phases of the game can be controlled by the manager.Nerves shouldn't be a problem,there aren't any fans in the ground to get on the backs of the players.

By the same token there are none there to lift them either.

I believe he does but some of the players dont seem to get it.
I'm not sure he is on the right track with that.3 midfielders in a line too far behind Bowman to support him when the ball is pumped forward.With the rest of the team sitting deep on the off chance that we might get over run.Got to be more positive.

Looking at the pessimism last Saturday. Would there by enough getting behind the team in the ground to be heard?

Tired, injuries, our poor pitch, our inexperience, everyone’s tired bodies, missing players we might call misfortune. Creating few chances, subs changing little, poor entertainment all round.

And how is that turned around... - Different motivation?! Different luck?? Sunny weather? Not at all convinced here even though odd things can happen but I fear we have a lot riding on Williams running for part of a game.
Hope it’s good on ifollow.
Fingers crossed. One MJ pen.

Your hope is fulfilled. Not even on the bench, must have a knock.
