    [Football] Its football Jim - but not as we know it.

    I know, if only I could afford the pay cut. If only Chris had thought to push someone with pace up against the two Spurs centre backs who were camped in our half most of the second half, leaving acres of space to run into, rather than a 35 year old with the pace of uncle Albert, maybe we...

    The football this season is a massive regression on last season, and rumours of player discontent are an indication that we are moving backwards.

    The only relevant point you make there is regarding the top six, United spend more than the others in their mini league, but because their coach is not as good, they are bottom.

    But there are other attacking formations he didn't try, not just the one he did that didn't work But he just reverted to type. This is the problem, and why he is so easily out foxed tactically. And our bad run started when Glenn's goals dried up, but instead of trying Locadia in his favourite...

    True, but the answer to this need not be to retreat into our own penalty box every game. If the gap between our lone striker and our midfield is as great as Chris seems to like, then we are always under the cosh.

    I'll support the team at the stadium, and never boo or heckle what Chris and the boys are doing within earshot. Im smart enough to know thats counter productive. But we must have somewhere to vent our growing frustrations.
