THE BALL NEVER LEAVES THE FLOOR, NICE TO WATCH

[Guest intercity0wl]

So much for the "Megsons teams dont play football" brigade, I thinks this little video from last week shows that we now have a side who are more than capable of playing FOOTBALL.

Erm, its just like watching Brazil...

... against Morecambe.

[Mike Hunt]

Enjoyed that

Thanks

why does everyone get so excited when we play a couple of balls to eachother? most teams in the FL do that week in week out but for us its some sort of huge achievement

In fairness, with camera skills like that you could work for the football league show.

the point of the video is to prove that exact point - that we do that as well as other teams, whereas (if you have been reading various articles) other teams seem to think we're incapable of doing so

Head up Semedo lad, messi was in on goal then.

[Utah Owl]

No end product, smash it!

[Arthur Bach]

Seems like we're playing against ourselves sometimes.

Doesn't matter if the opposition is Man City or Morecambe.

Well i watched the Game on ESPN, and in the first half Wednesday were very good, they could have had 2 or 3 more, the second half was a bit of a non even though.

On saying that the penalty was obscene, what a bloody clownish hand ball decision that was against lines.

What got me was, the corner only a few minutes earlier when the guy raised his arm and handled it wasnt given.

Exactly.

We don't exactly pass it round gracefully though do we?

[horny owl]

We don't exactly pass it round gracefully though do we?

But at least we can pass it around............its a start.

I see you have forgotten ingenious imaginative guile of the Potter [to Beevers sometimes] to Spurr - hoof system.

Yes I would say a complete turnaround by Megson is one flippinghuge achievement and should be celebrated at every opportunity.

No it doesnt look second nature to us at all does it ..... But we are trying ..... very trying

The ball leaves the floor within the first ten seconds from the big flip off goal kick to madine.

Embarassing thread.

Weve played some half decent stuff this year especially when in front*

Threads like this just make it look lie we play hoof balf all the time, which all wednesday fans know we dont. We launch it into the box from dead balls and why not with the size of our team but in open play i think we try and knock it about a bit.

* and some poo .

[SiJ]

I don't need video proof to tell you that we can knock the ball about a bit.

I think some of us are becoming a bit too self concious of this "Hoof ball" tag that certain bitter, small time, poxy clubs have come out with when we've beaten them.

[sheffield_dave]

Unfortunately when you share your City the greatest footballing sides on the planet you start to become a little self concious of it and try to overcompensate.

We are the Espanyol of English football.

good grief, some people are never happy!

if you want grace, go the ballet instead!
