    Why is it that there seems to be only 2 ways to play football,
    a, the Hill way,
    b, long ball.

    If you dont want Hill it automatically makes you a long ball lover, why?

    I dont like long ball *****, i dont like Hill`s brand of ***** either, surely we dont only have those 2 choices?

    Why cant we have a team that plays football with pace and flair, pass and move into space to get a return ball, get the ball wide and get crosses in, make the defenders earn their money against us, maybe I am just unrealistic in wanting some decent football to watch and I am in the minority, because if we only really do have those 2 choices I am stopping watching football all together.

    Thanks for reading this diatribe!

    When does a long ball become a visionary pass? Proper answer!

    In my eyes if a long ball is used sparingly and to catch the opponents unaware then it becomes a good tactic! If it is all you do then its just *****.
    Proper answer !

    I agree, nowt wrong with a long ball as long as it's not your only game plan. Got to say Davies' hold up play was superb today.

    I really was dreading watching us play after Hill said Greening was his handbrake, that he would stop us being so rushed going forward.
    i was right to be worried !

    we were slow going forward anyway, Greening puts us in reverse. Even my 10 year old son has noticed, he moans every time he get the ball.
