Maneki Neko adkins/Rodgers passing game was pointless and dull passing for passings sake.
jaaps team does it to draw the opposition out of position, to create space and therefore chances, which it did tonight. 1st half at least.
saying its ineffective is daft when we are unbeaten at home, and are in 3rd place.
That's our worst home performance of the season, and we still won.
Quite.
Rodgers & Bodgekin's teams passed tediously across flat back fours until they got bored, hoofed aimlessly upfield and lost possession whereas Japp's defence attempts to create openings with angles, wide full backs and centre halves regularly pushing over the half way mark.
It might be frustrating at times as players adjust to a big change in playing style but will this club ever lose a minority of supporters who must be up there with some of the thickest the nation has to offer
These are the fans who regularly boo a 0-0 scoreline at half time and they are currently booing our players as they carry out their managers instructions.
While I'm sure our 2nd half performance had more to do with Mick McCarthy's tactics, the effect these idiots are having on some of our players is obvious to those who know more about the game than can be written on the back of a postage stamp.
No doubt some of these
"fans", who the club would be better off without, would say the price of a ticket gives them the right to express an opinion but why not do us all a favour and spend that money on something you actually enjoy
Goodnight
