5-4-1 not 4-5-1.

Nolan in the book, didn't touch Jones and he's writhing on the floor again.

Need a spark from somewhere, a chance/bad tackle. Flat as fuck on and off the pitch.

or just timewasting.

Eugh this is painful so far like as a spectacle.

Nolan limping badly.

All our defenders having a shocker so far. Basic error central.

Phil Jones in the book.

We'll definitely not play a more defensive team this season like. I'm so fucking pleased that fat cunt isn't our manager anymore.

Crowd getting agitated with Rovers antics already.

Fuck me, everytime it goes into Shola and Carroll their getting hacked to fuck.

too stop start so far to say really.

Struggling to deal with their punts too.

Going be a long slog playing against a team with 9 behind the ball at more or less all times.

The old go down at any opportunity and waste time from the off tactic. Remember this one from his Bolton days.

nah it got caught between his legs as he tried to dribble out.

Kicking everything that moves like they are.

Wing backs my arse btw. Playing a bank of 5 with a bank of 4 infront of them.

Jesus man!

FOR FUCKS SAKE. Fucking schoolboy defending. Just what you're not to do when you play against a team with 6 defenders on the pitch.

Thats a fucking dive too.

Straight away with the long throws. Yawn.

always get the impression with that that it's become vicious in an attempt to legitimise itself, as stupid as that sounds southampton - pompey the same, like they're out to prove how much they hate each other instead of actually wanting to win a football match & bragging rights Hmm. Yeah, maybe. I don't know much about the south coast one, but I've lived in north London. There I think loyalties are somehow a bit more diffuse just because of the kind of place it is. In Newcastle, pretty much everyone is black and white. In north London, people come from all over the shop, and football rivalries become less visible in the multiculti confusion. But they're serious games. South Coast all stems back to dockers strikes and the Southampton dockers breaking it IIRC.

Eh?

Wouldn't shock me if Blackpool get panned tonight, they rotated half their team. ---- Eugh Phil Brown on SSN.
