Again we start with 3 centre halves and wing backs and it was shite and stale.....

Many fans were happy to keep this as it worked at Bramhall Lane and against Man Utd.....!! This is a formation that is not needed at home in games where the opposition should worry about us...!!

Again SG has to change the tactics at half time to go to a back 4..... that's twice in only a few home games, against teams below us, that he has done this.... when will he learn to start with a back 4??

Second half was far better as Humphrey and Johnson were allowed more freedom to get forward....

Robinson was the best player on the pitch by a mile and we looked more of an attacking threat in the final 3rd with him up top and Gally in the mix.... Those front 3 are as good as any in the league....

The league table is starting to look great and id only expect to see the wing backs in possibly 2-3 of the remaining games...

We can win this league as champions with the right tactics from the off.....!!

Shite and Stale? The second half was as exciting as we have seen this season, aided greatly by the overlapping of both WING BACKS which wouldn't exist if we didn't have 5 at the back. Get a hold of yourself, we kept five at the back the whole game

Stale and shite first half yes..... We played with a back four in the second half if you had cared to watch the game smart arses.....

And should you not agree then listen to Snodin's post match interview when he states we reverted to a back 4 in the second half.....

You are talking rubbish mate. Laird went to left back in a back four in the second half.

We didn't play with 3 centre halves at Sheffield though!

Haven't got a fucking clue what you were watching if you think he was the best player on the pitch.

Agreed, he frustrated the fuck out of me.

Cost us possession numerous times in the first half with little, fairy flicks rather than a simple ball. I think Grayson had a word at half time.

Offside about 10 times too, braindead. One or two bright sparks but give me Davies doing the simple things every time.

Set up Garner who missed a sitter, set up the first goal and it was his cut in side and shot that led to the second goal..... His first game back from injury and he will score more and create more than Davies ever would....

Unbelievable. Robinson played a pivitol role in both goals and we scored twice from open play. With Davies we have no movement up front. I bet if you asked the Scunthorpe backline if Robinson was braindead they would have a difference of opinion thats for sure. Considering it was first full game in three months I thought he did very well - but his shooting was diabolical.
