Can you not keep these all to 1 thread?
And why sound so delighted?
Fat lot of good having most possession did us today.
QuoteOr better still just stop them altogether. Really boring.

QuoteQuoteOr better still just stop them altogether. Really boring.I think you'll find you are in a very small minority. I'm sure there are hundreds of fans out there that enjoy my objective analysis. Football can be such a subjective game that fans needs the voice of reason. I am happy to fulfil that role.
You know, I think people are wrong when they say your Mad Mick...................... You're actually Walter Mitty.
QuoteFat lot of good having most possession did us today.Given that there is a margin for error of +/- 2% then I would call 51/49 pretty even. What is disappointing is that after having virtually twice as much possession in the first half we let them do the same to us in the second half. Great half-time team talk Saunders.
QuoteYou know, I think people are wrong when they say your Mad Mick...................... You're actually Walter Mitty. Yet another alias. Won't be too long before everyone is confused as to my identity. I've forgotten how many times I've corrected posters but the message just doesn't seem to be getting through.
Do you seriously think Saunders instructed his players to relinquish possession. Get a bloody grip.
Bang on time to prove my point.
Some posters on here never learn do they?I bet mjdgreg is a world champion fisherman.
QuoteDo you seriously think Saunders instructed his players to relinquish possession. Get a bloody grip.It's the only explanation I can offer. I think he told them that his preferred style of play is to let the opposition dominate possession and for us to then convert 2 out of 3 of the shots on target like we did in the first 2 games. He needs to be made aware that you need far more attempts on target than that to score enough goals to win.

Don't care if he is a wind up merchant. I come on here to have a footballing debate. Problem with that?
Your own stats prove they didn't dominate possession. Sure, you're talking 2nd half but if that was Dean's preferred method of playing why didn't we do that from the start.
QuoteDon't care if he is a wind up merchant. I come on here to have a footballing debate. Problem with that?I can assure you that I am not a wind up merchant. The views I express are perfectly logical and reasonable and honestly held. It would be far better if the people that had a problem with my views offered up counter arguments. Usually they don't, they just hurl abuse. I can live with that for the greater good of those that want to know the facts behind what's going on.
QuoteYour own stats prove they didn't dominate possession. Sure, you're talking 2nd half but if that was Dean's preferred method of playing why didn't we do that from the start. I think what happened was that Saunders did tell them to concede possession from the start and try to hit them on the break. However the players thought that they'd take matters into their own hands and decided to try and dominate possession as deep down inside they know this is how the game should be played. At half-time he probably gave them a right bollocking and they played according to his instructions in the second half with the inevitable outcome.
So you've started this post to confirm you've been wrong all the time. Possession is irrelevant. We also had more corners than them today but I see you missed that stat out.He sounds delighted because he isn't a rovers fan
