There are two things that Williams has taken from Martin.
Clearly, playing intricate moves in our own area like a football equivalent of the Harlem Globetrotters but without the talent is only going to end in tears. Especially at the fag end of a game when we have points to lose.
Secondly, the waiting for a pressing player to get within a ties width if the ball before passing it. I remember the derision this caused when Martin boldly stated that that type of play would sap opponents of energy. Well that didn’t go according to plan yesterday and Vig’s dallying on the ball nearly cost us. Derby were the fittest team leaving the pitch last night without doubt.
First class match report by Liam by the way. A ‘warts and all’ account which for me gave a very accurate feel of how the game went. |

Yes, Derby were certainly better when they realised what they had to do.
I made the point a few times last night about our physical and mental fitness. We HAVE to improve on those to get better. Derby didn’t seem to suffer from the physical tiredness at all whereas we were blowing hard and making horrendous passes not even a junior side should make.
And cut out the cute play in our own area. Put your laces through the ball, there’s no shame in it. [Post edited 28 Nov 12:21]

I think key woukd make a good attacking midfielder, my only doubt is could he get a head of steam from being so advanced?
Maybe we will look for an established defensive RB in the window allowing him to move into a more advanced starting position. If we keep relying on Naughton we may have problems.
All that said, I think if we finish in the top half this year with a few additions in January then next season we carry on as we are and mount a challenge for the POs. |

Perfectly put! Or why not have a go at Luke himself who was quite scathing about our performance after the initial golden period. Also, I liked the way he praised Derby as well, nice to see from a decent football manager. |

Our strategy is to sap the opposition if energy, allowing the ball to come to feet and only releasing at the very last moment. Each pass plays a part in decreasing the energy levels of the opposition.
So why is it alway us who are flagging at the end of games. Why aren’t we fit enough? |

Someone mentioned earlier that Pompey will be fresher after their game being called off tonight. This is the second one in a row for them, they’ll be lucky to be match fit😂
Seriously though, that’s two games in a row for us which have been energy sapping. |

They’ll come at us in the second half and they’ll be physical. We mustn’t p1ss about at the back. Those barrage if corners came from an appaling misplaced pass whilst trying to be too bloody clever. Learn boys, learn!!! |

Not a lot in it cost wise maybe.
We stayed in the Times Square Hilton. A half of Stella Artois came to $18!!! That included tax and gratuity. What a rip off.
Find and drink is expensive but in the case of food, you get a hell of a lot if it. One starter (appetizer) and main (entree) could feed 3-4 normal people. No exaggeration. I think that is what you’re supposed to do, order one and share. That would justify the cost. |

Only 4 nights. Just got back in the house.
I’ve been there many times but I went with my daughter and her fiancée to show them around. Every time I go there it’s changed.
My first visit was in 18th September 1981. Why do I remember that? It was the night Simon and Garfunkel did their Live In Central Park concert. I didn’t go as I’d only just got there and didn’t know my way around. Long time ago now though. |
