Imagine someone in 1973 telling everyone the crowd prefer the style from 1923. Absolutely insane behaviour.
People can’t expect the players to be brave on the ball, anywhere on the pitch, if the fans are filling their y-fronts every time we have to make a pass.
Same goes for that goon Tondeur on Humberside, been needling the manager and players every chance he gets about the different style. Bloke sounds like he’s on the verge of a coronary the second the ball’s not punted into the stratosphere.
It’s possible to play terribly without having to completely abandon your principles the following week.
Have to agree re Tonduer, the style of football appears so alien to him and as a result the commentary of it is dreadful

There were plenty around me moaning "get it forward" when pratting around at the back.
Same every week...every season... "Stop fking about, get it forwards"...followed by.. "Stop hoofing it" Today in the Pontoon i heard contradictory shouts from the same people throughout.

It is glaringly obvious that Tuckman’s theory will help some people understand what’s going on with the players at the moment.

Think it flies well over some people’s heads to be honest.

We cannot afford a performance like that in the next two games or we are right in a relegation scrap.

He’s a dreadful commentator and an arrogant egotist, a classic example of a (kind of) journalist who thinks he’s part of the act. Matt Deane & Mike White by comparison CDAJATL

Are you going to accept DAs invitation for an hour at Cheapside? What I took away from today (game & RH) was that Artell wants to coach players where I suspect as much as I respect him PH trained & instructed players. The latter delivers functionality the former (players permitting) will deliver flair and more wins.

Its not that we are trying to play out from the back but we do it too slowly, the number of times the ball could have gone straight out to Clifton, Hunt, Mullarkey and Glennon in acres of space straight from the keeper it always had to go 5 yards to Smith or Maher first. By the time they have a couple of touches their options as above are closed down. Add to that Eisa having a worst first touch than me, the rest of the midfield unable to complete a 10 yrd pass, results in games like today. It's simple some of our players are not quite good enough whatever style we decide to play.

Today in the Pontoon i heard contradictory shouts from the same people throughout.
You do know that it's possible to pass forwards without hoofing it? So many times we passed sideways when a forward pass on the deck was available. Harrogate demonstrated this perfectly early on finding players in space centrally who then worked a pass out wide. Would folk please stop characterising fan reaction in the binary 'passing out' versus 'hoof it' debate. If only it were that simple. There were several opportunities to carry the ball forward and draw defenders out of position but we lacked courage or confidence. Arthur tried more often than most and won corners and throw ins which were then wasted. Like others I also found JT;s interview poor. Firstly for ignoring the lack of competence, leadership and fight on view regardless of the tactical debate and then Artell's statement about finding the fear of relegation 'ridiculous'. I think I got round the roundabout at Waltham on muscle memory after that patronising and defensive assertion. Losing to a well organised team is OK if you give it your best shot but I was looking much more heart and aggression in my team.

Agree. It’s certainly time Radio Humberside ‘rationalised’ their commentary roster.
