Going back to Yids away....
YIDS (A) Town possession 44% - we WON
Brighton (A) Town possession 48% - we WON
Sarfend (A) Town possession 40% - we WON
Scunny (H) Town possession 46% - we WON
YIDS (H) Town possession 45% - we WON
Compare that to......
Crewe (A) Town possession 57% - we LOST
Yeovil (A) Town possession 56% - we LOST
Orient (H) Town possession 59% - we LOST
So what do we want tonight? Colchester to come and give us a good game and have lots of the ball because we will punish them when we are under pressure - when we seem to control the game and have lots of possession and play "pretty triangles" WE LOSE.
Lets pack the South Stand out tonight and BELIEVE, until it's mathematically impossible to go up, we HAVE to get 100% behind the team!
LEE CLARKS BARMY ARMY!

If we break away and score another, all well and good! |

I think it's because we play better on the counter attack. They don't have 10 players behind the ball. I still feel we're lacking the defence splitting midfielder/striker.

What these stats suggest to me is that when teams attack us, we know what we're doing, and how to create space, make chances, and defend effectively. On the other hand, when teams sit back and let us dictate, we are a bit clueless, and struggle to break them down. |

Spot on Tom.
Like I say - get the goal, protect the lead and breakaway if possible, but I'd take a load of 1-0 wins to the end of the season.
Until we have the 20-30 goal a season man in place we have to play this way, then in the summer - get our man and kick on from there!

Colchester to come and give us a good game and have lots of the ball because we will punish them when we are under pressure - when we seem to control the game and have lots of possession and play "pretty triangles" WE LOSE. So - Colchester read my thread and let us take the lions share of possession... Town 57% possession, more shots on and off, more corners, they commit more fouls and get more yellows - outcome NO WINPerhaps the players thought..... listen to the crowd chanting "Ole" and ..... look.... isn't that a Mexican  .... we must be fantastic - FGS DON'T DO MEXICAN WAVES OR CHANT 1-0 UP AND YOU FOOKED IT UP UNTIL WE ARE WINNING BY AT LEAST 3-4 GOALS I'm afraid it's back in the Riverside lower for me now. I enjoy the singing and getting behind the team but Mexican waves when we are 2-1 up against Colchester JEEESSUUS. One final question before I "go forth and multiply" - does anyone still think we will take this division by storm next season? Without investment up front (sorry Boothy) - 2 proven goal scorers - we will be mid-table next season as well.......  |
