    Never been a fan. I'm a big fan of playing for a win in every game then you get a chance at all results. Playing for a draw generally ends in a defeat and at best a point.

    I really think we have a decent squad, lets be positive and give it a ******* go.

    Agree , it looked a matter of time before leicester scored today , surprised it took 52 minutes. We haven't got the players to sit back and not press , we can't defend and our best players are in attack

    I dont think many teams have the playyers mate because playing for a draw goes against everything that players have learnt over the years - to go out and win the game. Its fcking barmy.

    We went for it last season in every game. Fans enjoyed it. It worked on the whole. We were 4th in the form table over a 5 month period. It wasn't a fluke. Its mental changing things. He is over thinking things and not playing to his own strengths - motivation. If anyone says you can't play high tempo over a season, thats ******** to - of course you can - especially with a huge squad and good youngsters which we have.

    We have some good players at this club - however, our defence is our weakest link - and that's the link we are trying to rely on. Mental, mental, mental. We're just sitting ducks, especially away from home. We're either in this league and we have a go at teams or we decide we're not good enough and chalk fck on it.
