for all the moaning about the way things are I was well impressed by the way
our rent a player by the week squad kept going on Saturday -

seemed stupid to complain at Tillys tactics when he had 2 players with all of 24 hours to work with -

anyway the Roots Hall moaners seemed happy enough to be able to be back in full voice ......

funny thing though that the spirit and committment came through on the pitch - but not off it....

Really? The fact that 1st half we had players for 442, yet played 3-5-2 or 5-3-2 and it was terrible, yet 2nd half we were much better at 442 and got a point doesnt imply it was stupid to question the tactics.

The two players we had only 24 hours to work with both played 90 minutes and are used to playing 442....
 
Helped taking Moussa off at half-time, shocking performane as was Grant's in the 1st half.
Passing the ball then standing there and admiring it the pair of them. No closing down the ball and doing the off-ball graft, no leadership between them, quite frankly no bollocks.
And we need plenty of those to stay up.

2nd half, the tactics and personnell were much better, got the goal and the Roots Hall faithful turned up the volume and the point was in the bag.
