And then there were 3, or are there ? 14:44 - Mar 28 with 1514 views | saintjeff52 | Football returns tomorrow. RM states that we've already been written off, in the race for automatic promotion. The Fat Lady hasn't quite started singing yet, though she is loosening up her tonsils. We need to ignore the noise surrounding the current top 3, and concentrate on our own games. It will definitely be a difficult ask to make the autos, but if RM applies the right team selections from the start, in every game, who knows where we'll end up. Given the dreadful season last year, I didn't expect to be anywhere near the playoffs, let alone the autos, this season. Credit RM in getting us so far, where play offs at least, is within our reach. We have around 9 Top Players that should start most games, or certainly the majority of them. KWP, THB, Bednarek, Flynn Downes, Stu Armstrong, Ryan Fraser, David Brooks, Adam Armstrong, and Che Adams. Second tier Players, Joe Rothwell, Stephens, Aribo, Smallbone, Edoze, Charles, and Mara could always sub on to 'rest' the top players. It's all to do with mindset. Play with an attacking intent. 80% Possession means 'rock all' if we don't score ONE more Goal than the opposition. We need to start our strongest team v Middlesboro' and especially Ipswich, in our first two games back. Win these two games to send out a signal that there is a 4th Team in the fight for the autos. Cut out giving away goals as we've done recently. Don't get caught with the ball when close to our Goal Area, affording the opposition an easy chance to score. What will be will be. A nail biting season end is incoming. UTS | | | | |
