Another master stroke from the maestro. Just when we expected him to field a similar side to the 2 away games he changes formation to a flat back 4 and selects a side for that formation which meant no place for Holmes or Marshall and brought some comments on here. The team stuck to the formation to a man and it paid dividends. Yet another case of assessing the opposition and selecting a formation and team accordingly.
OK it was a dour attritional game with both 'keepers having little serious work to do but we got men behind the ball, defended well and took the points. As KC often says football is what you do without the ball as much as what you do with it. I expect we will see many similar performances against the so called better sides but if it works so be it.
Sorry Keith but that type of tactic is based on luck and is desperately boring to watch, keep casting
