    That's more nearer the mark than I thought, so it's a yes from me.

    I didn't have a chance to follow at all tonight and just skimming some of this thread now.

    Could the slow start have been deliberate from Warburton and the team? Keep the ball, cut out silly errors, don't over commit, be patient, be clinical when we get a chance. I could see him sending them out with that mantra after the number of cheap goals we've given away of late.

    Welcome thoughts of those who saw the game though.

    If you listen to his comments on video he was annoyed that we played too slow & we was as awful first half, passing terrible, 2nd much quicker & took the game to them & deserved our win purely due 2nd half effort & Albert

    Just think of all the late drama you'd lose though. So many goals have been scored with last kicks of games that wouldn't have happened otherwise. Its part of the fun not knowing the random amount of time a refs gonna add on. City certainty wouldn't of won the league back in 2012 that's for sure !

    We were awful first half pal and gave the ball away more than any game this season. Simple passes too not difficult ones, was terrible. Conditions were shocking again but luckily Blackburn didn't look a very potent outfit tonight. 2nd half was a massive improvement brought on by Amos replacing Dozell and Adomah turning into Dave Thomas for 30 minutes !

    I'd rather have the knowing of the real time left rather than the randomness of a **** ref. It will cure the game of many ills in my opinion. Each to their own.

    Fair comment 9's, but for me the greatest thing about any sport is the uncertainty of what's gonna happen next. Football has already become far too sterile in my eyes, but it's all about opinions. It's what makes us keep watching !

    I just wish I had a quid for every time Warburton has said the word physicality in interviews this season ! Ffs

    I think we can all agree that Barton was a tosspot for our club, and that's putting it mildly. Anyway, I'm off to bed and I know that ( hopefully ) I'm going to wake up knowing that we're back winning ... URsssss

    Actually I don't agree with that. He was a tosspot for large swathes of time but towards the end of his time with us, and after what seemed like deep reflection on his part, he was the only highly paid mercenary who actually played as though he wanted to win. Slightly unfair to dismiss all his efforts. Only slightly!

    Something seemed (very) different in the first half. Your idea is one possibility. I wondered if there had been bad news about a team member or their family. Our high energy, hard press was nowhere in sight. Another possibility was just a bad day at the office. As per 9's post, the way they were set up was very, very defensive.

    Special mention of Warb's subs as Amos made a huge difference in breaking down their wall.

    I really, really disliked Barton completely, a complete @@@@ of human being .. but I read about him telling / insisting on Arry bring in a sports psychologist who created the group mentality that got us to and through the playoff final.

    I am greatful for that Zamora moment...
    Even if it lead to keeping Arry and allowing him to ruin our club for a decade

    I watched/endured the first half, and then missed the second when a friend telephoned. Delighted to hear our performance improved - we really did not look like a top 6 club in that first 45
