The sucker-punch game; successful teams have used it for years. Forest were promoted, won the League & two ECs with it (as one older example of many) i.e. defend first play on the break then defend well again. Same game different era but it works at any level with the right players.
Carlisle had a pretty good side then iirc.
Just had a daft bet on Flanagan to score anytime and Colchester 2-1!Here to watch the ex Sunderland lads and big Tom Flanagan is playing for Colchester. Scenes.
Haway embo
0-0 FTI’ve did anytime 4 fold of all the ex SAFC players starting. 350/1
Got a point which is better than nowt I suppose & broke the run of defeats. On to the next one.
Need wins.
They deperately need one to break the phase they're in; loads of ball possession, create semi-chances but can't score so the longer it goes without being able to take the lead the pressure builds. Their defensive record was not great with MW but we need to see what MH has brought to the side. First off though they need to manage a goal or two then see about defending it. As I've intimated there are enough games/points to get them but they need a start. I listened to radio but without actually seeing just how close (or not) to a goal they were it's hard to tell, I'll await the highlights because nothing has arrived on Bleak Midwinter yet. Other fringe sides are also picking up points so Carlisle need to get something before the gap to safety is too big.
I suppose there comes a point when hungry teams like Harrogate will have more desire to fight/battle for their lives. IH won't be happy but he's taken Swindon to a position where a slighly more relaxed approach by the players could produce today's result. A single goal away defeat shouldn't set alarm bells ringing, next game is the one that matters. Mr H knows what you can do so it's when you aren't doing what he asks he'll deal with it.
Some weeks ago I didn't think Tranny would be drawn into the bottom two despite not being able to score but now I'm not so sure. They seem to leak critical goals and can't score to bail themselves out.
Mr SwindonOnTour, Which teams (that you've obviously seen) would you position in the bottom two spots?
Only Embleton starting from the ex lads signings
Surely he’s got a break clause in his contract for the inevitable relegation? He’s too good for non league surely?
If that’s true, no wonder his career is on a downward spiral.
Sorry I'm a bit late but no they aren't. And the way results are going tonight down there getting something would be superb, Tranny have just conceded.
