Unfortunately, I have to agree it was awful today. Where has the spirit and fight gone shown only a few weeks ago?

You have to question the manage today, if your going to play it on the ground with possession, why start with a target man who can only play with the ball in the air. Hoilett is more of an inside forward these days rather than a winger who will be putting crosses in the box.

To be honest I didn’t see the game it was my choice not to get option one has I’ve gone for option two but I have seen the goals we have conceded i have looked at the stats at the above post and even though I am not a lover of stats it doesn’t look goood reading neal Harris said we had most of the Posession but what good is that when you haven’t got any shots on target and don’t even get near there area the only stat that matters is how many goals you win by

Time after time , game after game we had this under Warnock .

We were always outplayed especially possession wise but we were the ones who ended up winning and getting promoted.

I cant remember many games under him we actually won the posession stats

there is no right or wrong way to play.... but whatever game plan / tactics it has to be effective.. that yesterday was not close and belonged in a time before goalposts were invented...generally we looked pretty good towards the end of last season but wants to change it...every time we do this happens..

This was argued under NW but lots more interested in style of play instead of results? Preston had 60% and lost from only on target shot by opposition.
