Well, I still feel a bit sick after that result. On a par with that Walsall game where we hauled ourselves back from two goals down to take the lead in the last minute only for them to launch a speculative ball into our box from kick-off, from which they scored. That was the end of any hope of avoiding relegation.
Yep. Very, very disappointing.

Is that Rolls Royce Corniche still going begging? And a pair of flip flops

Movement off the ball is required imo. We play statues - foot on the ball looking for a player to pass to, who are all stationary with an opponent standing close by waiting to pounce on whomsoever the ball is passed to. Recipe for disaster.
What happened to football being a simple game? Halifax played the way I remember we played like. When I played we had a few basic principals drummed into us:

When defending have your back to your goal
When attacking try to receive the ball facing the opponent's goal. If not turn and shoot.
NEVER pass the ball across your own penalty area.
Cover each post at corners.

Simples.

I do agree to a large extent Delboy but where is the cutoff between bumps in the road and throwing points away from not learning from previous mistakes. That's the frustrating aspect .
Good start to the campaign though as you say.

How about asking the people whom you shafted for all that money whether they love you.

You mention when we can't go wide but we had the situation of Rowling stood, unmarked on the wing and the preferred pass was sideways or back to the keeper. Happened loads of times. I don't get it.

I really worry about this tippy tappy stuff. I was listening to some random discussion on Talk Sport and they were saying that Premier League proponents of this style of play regard the odd goal given away as collateral damage: expecting the style of play to make up for these mistakes. It beggars belief.

Wonder if EEL being out is what has helped us be less pedestrian with getting the ball forward. He is a good defender but one of the main culprits of putting his foot on the ball, by which time all our attacking players have been marked up.
What a pleasure to watch today's game and see this squad/team beginning to gel.

More like it those last 15 mins or so. Can we start matches like that, please.
Some good defending kept them from scoring, too. Thinking about an overhead kick off the line by someone first half. That might have been over the line. Bit like their header from our keeper's wayward pass. Did we get away with one there?

Continuing with walking football and standing with the ball at our feet on the half way line before making a sideways or back to the keeper pass. I see no improvement in our tactics I'm afraid.
