I don't understand why we are not keeping the ball - happy to look for the fast break sometimes, but would like more possession.

The tempo is a bit faster than last season. We're not stringing 40 consecutive passes together in our own half now but getting rid of it upfield quicker.

BHAFC@OfficialBHAFC40: David's free kick clearly blocked by a Derby defender's hand. Referee D'Urso waves play on and Derby escape.

You suck, D'Urso

Which was one of the main criticisms last season. We ponced around too much, giving the opposition time to set up. If we can retain the ball AND get it forward quicker, then we will be ok.

I saw Murphy's handball last week from down the other end but being 250 miles away today I didn't see the Derby player put his hand out.
