Whatever Thorn did today, he should stick to it. However he told the players to set up and play he just needs to repeat that for the next 19 games. If only it were that easy. But we do definately need to be more attack minded away from home.
Arent we the only football league team to not win away this season?
But we didn't play with three up front - AT changed the formation at various times, and McSheffrey either played wide left or in the hole, but never in a front three.

Quite right; it was very fluid. Nimely, Bell and Sheff were fantastic in their movement, especially when Boro were down to 10 men, they dragged them all over the place. I kept screaming an Alan Partridge-esque LIQUID FOOTBALL! Eat my goal!
Never in a front 3? Different game to me then and Clive Eakin and Noel Whelan. At times it was very clearly a front 3. Both Eakin and Whelan alluded to this on a number of occasions. Shuff had a more free role but they lined up as a front 3.
Not for me! Were you listening to the CWR commentary while watching the match? The formation was more fluid than usual, but it was never a straight 4-3-3. At one point when 'Boro were down to 10 men we even played a fragmented 4-4-2 with McSheffrey left midfield, pushing up to attack when in possession and tracking back to cover the Herminator when defending. I'm not complaining or arguing though - it was a great team performance!
You saw what I saw, Scam: we changed shape about 7 times; everytime Boro adjusted, we tweaked again. It was a tactical masterpiece by Thorn, almost as if he's read the crap on here and was trying to prove a point!
