Sorry, you're going to need to point to where I said being a threat from set pieces was a bad thing. I really don't remember writing that at all. Please could you find that quote from me?
Thanks
Try to be nice, get it thrown back in my face. Stay classy Ipswich.
"When you don't have the resources other clubs do, you have to play to your strengths. That's what Mick McCarthy is doing, it's working fantastically well and as I have already said you've good reason to be proud of it. And if you enjoy the style, all the better."
"And frankly, it's why you're doing well, because it works. So you might as well embrace it. If you enjoy it, all the better from your pov. I'm not saying you can't be proud of your team - you can because they've done seriously well with limited resources. And doubtless you'll tell me I'm patronising and you'll get more apoplectic, but those are the facts. And as I said, I'm happy because I saw your match against us and at that moment I thought you were genuinely going to League 1. And that mean a serious danger of no derby matches for a long time."
"That system works, it creates chances and it makes teams better than the sum of their parts."
"Everyone knows that's what MM does. And it works, very well. Look at how your team is doing with the resources available. You can't deny it, but if you're happy with it then great. No complaints. As I said, it's the thing keeping you afloat and so can only be a good thing IMO"
It is abundantly apparent that you don't understand this expression.

YOU are the one that is reading them incorrectly, the remaining 69% is broken down into further compartments each of which is fewer than 31%, but you carry on in your ignorant manner!
well lets get back on thread.
Well done MM for winning the manager of the month by playing crap long ball football that nobody likes, and well done Tyrone for winning player of the month, You really must have played some fantastic 70 yard balls into space!

Please point out where I said 31% is a majority. I don't recall ever saying that. Or writing it. Please could you find the post you are referring to? Thanks very much.
I trust you not to be making stuff up, as I'm sure you haven't on any occasion throughout this thread, but you have a lot of outstanding posts of mine that you say you are quoting or claim I have stated, which you haven't identified. Please can you focus on finding these.
Thanks very much.

and what are these other compartments dave, either its a set piece or open play surely?
Rob it is just a patronising rant designed by you to create an arguement! I'm bored at work today so its been fun just proving you wrong.
Not patronising at all..

Please can you also focus on digging out the posts where you are telling me I've said something or are describing my arguments, but they don't accord with my memory. I'm sure that you wouldn't be so underhand as to misrepresent any of the statements I have made. I'm sure these posts are out there. I just simply cannot recall saying you were "playing crap long ball football that nobody likes".
Much appreciated.

Called it! They always resort to this when they realise battle has been lost
You're the Guru of all things football who is quick to insult other people's understanding of the game. So you tell me, are there any different methods of attack in open play? Or do all of crossing, long balls, one-touch football, pass and move, one-two, beating the offside trap, inverted wingers, counter-attacking fall under the category of "open play"?
Genuinely fascinated by your insight and sudden change of heart about Ipswich's principle threat coming from set pieces, which I am sure is totally honest and nothing to do with the fact that you are trying to pettily points score.

It's been fun watching you blow up!
You're always great entertainment Rob!
Pleasure. There was me worrying that it was you and Guru I had upset with all the tears earlier about me supposedly insulting Ipswich.
I'm just glad you've conceded that your only purpose was an attempt at wummery, which I think you'll find I also called early on. I'm delighted we're all in agreement that I was right in my accurate assessment.
So, as ever, despite my attempts to be nice, it gets chucked back in my face by you. Stay classy JWM.

Rob you havent proved your case at all... In fact the stats you quoted prove the opposite thing....!
You are the one prolonging this arguement but hey its helped pass the time on a drab Monday afternoon.

no, when you are talking about set play goals, its either set play or open play, no ifs or buts, its just them 2. If you are then talking about headed goals and stuff like that its a totally different ball game.
And also Rob, hate to piss on your parade, but you do realise that most on TWTD are basically like your Canary Callers!
The opposite of what?
You're not very coherent at the best of times, but I'm really struggling now. Sorry.
Please can you focus on digging out all the posts which you alluded to me stating various things which I don't recal saying. Many thanks
Well we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one. Or, perhaps I better say we're going to have to agree that we agreed originally but for some not at all suspicious reason you appear to now be disagreeing. And we will have to agree to that. As much as I know it hurts you.
Please can you also focus on the quotes you have attributed to me. I'm still confused as to why I don't remember saying any of them, but you were quite adamant. Thanks
