I hardly ever get to games, but managed to drag my girlfriend and daughter along to yesterday's. A pleasant day out was had by all, three points for town :D

However, this may have been posted before but when did we decide that the long ball game was the way forward? I remember we used to be renowned for being a passing team, playing attractive football. When Rolyle first came in I heard a lot of people complain that he will adopt a 'route one' stategy and he assured us it would not happen. Yesterday I saw a team who in general kicked the ball up front and hope that someone could get on the end of it.

It worked yesterday, but it aint pretty and is very frustrating ! :roll:
