By the end of our League One season we'd played Fleetwood so many times I wanted to bifercate Captain Pugwash. Goal music is an American thing, it should remain that way, like Halloween and obesity.
I mean initially Rosenior said Ally went off out of precaution, then said they feared it was serious, so who knows what the official line is on Ally's injury. Reckon he wasn't going to come out and say "Yeah I ****ed up and caused his injury by pushing him too hard". What I do know is that Rosie has said he wants to ease Tetteh in; Now I'm no medical professional, so I guess I'll just go with what the management team says, hey?
The Germans love it too, which given their determination to keep the game traditional, has always surprised me
Missed that line from him but it would certainly indicate he wasn't 100% fit despite some people's claims.
I think there's a difference between technically fit and match fit. If you're putting your body under increased strain to be as sharp as you can be after a long time out the it's always going to be a balancing act in those first few games.
Most of the North stand aren't even in the ground when the team warms up and a lot of the ones who are are drinking on the concourse. In what world would where the team warm up make any difference?
Thought the point was about making the away team warm up away from their own fans, denying them those little moments with their fans to get each other going. It's a tiny thing but these are the things other clubs do.
Would be even better if away fans could be moved to West Upper. (I know there are multiple problems with that in reality).
I'm in the ground early. Yes the away team get a great reception from the away fans. I agree take it away from them. It certainly can't do any harm.
I would love to see the Stats for backwards and sideways passes. I bet we top the league for backwards passes. I am sure our owner is not happy with this style of play noting he said he would rather we lose 2-3 then draw 0-0. As soon as we went direct we scored. Why waste 95minutes passing the ball backwards this is not entertainment for the fans no wonder it was like a Morgue. Contrast to Wigan away 2,500 City fans singing and chanting all day because we went forward on attack
Another reason is 2,500 stood together without rows of stewards between them and like on Saturday, police. The policing and stewarding is ridiculous at the MKM.
If you check the goals against wigan, especially 2 and 3 there was so much more space, becasue wigan were attacking themselves, generally in away games, the home team doesn't sit back to contain which leads to space and gaps but these home games, the opponents are generally happy to plug gaps between midfield and defence and sit back for the majority of the game it's one of the reasons why top attackers cost so much money, becasue breaking down a well organised team is very difficult
We played the exact same way we did against Brum and Wigan as we did against Hudds. The difference is they scored first and parked the bus.
i know goal music is a touchy subject, and respect those who are dead against it...I'd have it, because it gets some of the the home fans up and also because it takes the piss out of the opposition....How about a quick burst of the Mud *classic.......Tiger Feet? * ps that's a joke. On another issue....Why does the bloke on the PA always introduced the away team first? ....Odd when we are at home!!!!!!!!!!! It only gets the away fans motivated.....As a club we're way off the pace when it comes to gamesmanship. Light years off some clubs who use the dark arts to their advantage.
