Well there's been 3 in our last 2 games. Solihull's 1st last Saturday, our 1st today and the penalty for Eastleigh. Stupid football played by players not good enough.
Yes Gilmour asks for the ball, but he isn't even on the half turn, he's got his back to play and obviously isn't aware of the danger around him. Robson can see everything from his position so its totally his call to play such a risky pass. Both Sassi and Gordon are free to the right - or heaven forbid just take a long goalkick upfield and put some pressure on in the opposition half.
Hmm, not sure about anything causing Solihull's first goal other than a gormless pass from our keeper to a player with 2 opposition players too close to him to start off with. Didn't see any increased pressing of our players all game really, Sassi and Gordon were allowed to pass it amongst themselves quite easily really because Solihull didn't mind us pissing around in our own half as they were winning.
Noticed it a lot last season, and again this season.The amount of teams who leave a gaping hole down the centre of the pitch is unbelievable at this level. You get a great view from the Pearl St end. Even before he scored - that pass from Sassi was on countless times. Just hope we can exploit it more going forward.
Just shows how far we have come already this season that we are slightly disappointed with the way it went in the 2nd half of a 3-1 home win to send us level on points with the leaders! We have so many options now - just maybe not so many in a short space of time next time Jim! 😉 4 league wins in a row! Think the last time that happened was under Hilly in League 1 2016/17. We won 6 in a row early season and 5 in a row in December/Jan including our record run of 10 home wins in a row. We eventually just missed out on a play off spot last game of the season. Hope this season sees at least that play off finish.
