We’ve had years of [SwearFilter] around with the ball and ending up losing games

If we had adopted this style in the football league last season we would still be in the football league. Give me passion hard work and high intensity every day of the week.

Totally agree Bingo

Like others have said its a forum of opinions but its almost like some on here want us to play pretty football (whatever that is) and they arent bothered about the result.

This team can go places. Everyone weve played against hates us and i love it. Interesting to note the stats on yellows/reds against other teams in this division

No not at all. We need a balance and a bit of both imo At the moment it’s heavily weighted towards ugly football to get results.
I’m hopeful and hoping that in time we will get the balance right as we do have a few lads who can play football

Not one person who attended that match yesterday would say it wasn't excellent entertainment. Well worth the trip. I would put it above Notts County away in our promotion season. In short, it was [SwearFilter] brilliant.

A lot of people said that the Paul Cox team was dull
to watch and boring, but that team played to it’s strengths and had goals in them. It looks like this team might too without having that much elusive 20 goal a season striker that everybody wants, which is good to share the goals. That season when Harrison got injured against Lincoln we kind of lost our way. Suspensions will kick in the way we play but barring injuries there’s not really an individual that you could take out and say we’d really miss I don’t think, they seem to be very much a team and there is decent competition. Still think we need another defender a centre back and if Oakley misses a game I’m not sure who else can play there. He by the way has come on leaps and bounds although naive to concede the penalty.
If we’re scoring goals and getting into the box whether it’s one or two or twenty two passes to get there, then there can’t be too many complaints.

It's obvious that Murrays teams are physical..
I think our friendly with Blackpool ,Evatt mentioned it.
We probably had one of our better pre seasons which gave us optimism.

I suppose if you are playing against us in a friendly you will think twice not wanting to get hurt
.
All the pre season fitness camps are paying off .
When we press many teams will.not live with us.

The 20 goal striker is not going to happen but what we have is several players cable of scoring.
Tightening the defence and we will be up in the top 7.

Hopefully the tide is turning
Let's hope we don't do our usual on Tuesday.

Scunthorpe are on a very similar start to us. Big team, but can' get the engine to fire yet. I like everyone am so chuffed to see what's finally happening at Holker Street.To see the boys do that against a team like Southend was fantastic. See you tomorrow night can't wait.

How many times on the past have we played pretty football and got beat.
As in CP Snows Corridors of Power .

The ends justify the means and we want promotion

under Evatt ?

Our style will split opinion while Adam Murray is managing the team, just visit the Southend forum regarding the game on Saturday it's really got them foaming at the mouth, Worthing were the same, but will agree the Standard so far is well below league 2 which at times in our 6 Seasons was dreadful to watch. If we could get ourselves near 7th place playing the Murray style so be it some won't be happy but would still take a play-off place. Let's get at Scunthorpe tomorrow from the off and let them have it.
