Ironically, on one other occasion yesterday he perhaps should have shot, but decided to pass instead. It's all about knowing when to take it on yourself and when other players are in a better position to score.

6. Lack of success. Portsmouth had, had quite a bit of recent success. Us, zilch.

When players time waste you don't get a fast flowing game. Definitely affects your enjoyment.

It's a ridiculous concept this of a bad tackle being in the first minute. A bad tackle is a bad tackle. Doesn't matter when the tackle is made. Need to do something about dissent too. Their centre half yesterday was constantly trying to get Beavon booked and moaning at the ref, despite nearly...

Exactly. We used to criticize Jones for the exact same thing.

It is a fair point. With smallish crowds some might have just ramped up and gone last minute if they could have parked dead close. Used to happen at Highfield Road.

His touch IS excellent. He does however need to either score more or provide more. He only set up the one chence yesterday and had no chances himself.

We've had the exact same debate before in general about fans drifting away from the game because of all the cynicism and cheating etc. Not just about yesterday

Sounds an ideal place for fans who like a bit of real ale before a game.

Well that's the thing. Isn't football supposed to be part of the entertainment industry at the end of the day? You want to see your team win for sure, but you also want to see a bit of skill, some goals, attacking, shots, saves, drama. You don't want to go up and see someone taking an absolute...

Someone not thought of suggesting to him to do bar snacks at Byatt's?

10-15 mins? Really? I will have to time myself from Lythall's Lane. I thought it was much quicker than that. I am in Block 20.

Shame Nazon couldn't convert from that chance he created.

Is it a decent size? How many do you think it could easily accommodate?

To a degree, Johnny, but I still think teams would come and defend, sit back and try and nick a goal and of course if they did get a goal it wouldn't then stop them going back to the tactic of time wasting and trying to kill the game once 1-0 ahead.

It was the last game before a clean slate too.

I didn't see him get booked. Was that right at the end? I left with about 3 minutes of added time left, just as they got a free kick inside our half and were again slowing everything right down.

Was it a bit of a miss hit? Couldn't quite tell if the ball just fell to McNulty or if it was a deliberate pass by Nazon.

Yep. But if it was out of 5 opportunities, 4 times he wouldn't have passed. I am certain we would have been 1-0 up and would have won the game if he had just slotted that through ball to McNulty. He was unmarked.

The reason is he is greedy. Nowt else to my mind. He doesn't even look up to see where other players are around him.
