We're not just hoofing it forwards anymore. That's the difference.
So do we presume Hughton has told them to play it high and long before the match, and has asked them to pass it low at half time?
I was thinking that; it's ridiculous isn't it. Surely there's more to it than a mythical 'curse', is there not? It's not a coincidence that the best teams are generally the fittest.
This, and our squad size certainly isn't a coincidence..
