I would have said I was a pragmatist about what type of football we played before IH got the job but it is so good to see proper footballers like Grandin, Benson and Clarke at BP in a black and white shirt.

Ollie is putting his simple thoughts in place.

Pass the ball on the ground accurately to each other, then keep moving to be ready for the next pass.

That sounds so easy, but takes fit players to keep moving and draw opponents out of position. Hanson pulling out to draw a defender to make a gap for Vernam's 3rd goal - classic example.

Same when defending - the flank wing back attacks and snother drops back to cover the space.

Ollie is getting that message across - Grandin is another new example - nothing wasted so no counterattacks by misplaced passes.

Players should improve from.simple messages and good training.

Didn't some folk say Grandin was an underwhelming signing whose legs must have gone, fritted around from club to club too much and was now playing his trade in some nothing league so mustn't be much cop? 🤣

I wouldn’t be surprised if Grandin’s pass success rate isn’t 100%. And not all short square passes either. Good performance all round, our possession stat was 63.7% according to iFollow.


Pedants corner: double negative? 🤔😝

Football is a simple game - as Ollie and the team are demonstrating so well.

We are in danger of having a positive goal-difference and being in the top half of the table.

Who would have thought this possible only 2 months ago?!
