alan48 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 They dont,but they do indicate a certain level of entertainment and an ability to put teams away .Newcastle and Brighton did that last season.H town didn't score too many and in both play-off games if we had taken a quarter of our chances we'd be in the big league .As I said previously , I think such shortcomings will be evident again but hope I'm wrong .

The signings were good on paper but we had no clear/concise style of play. We had enough quality to win the playoffs last season but it's more a case of the tactics that were deployed and the players bought into that. Our plan was to grind out results but it was awful and boring to watch. I see no reason why it won't be any different this time around and it's a concern. We finished 4th which was an improvement in league position and points total, but we did worse by losing in the SF. That 6 game winning streak at the end papered over the cracks. I don't have a short memory though and we have come far in a short space of time. We're lucky to have DC as our owner and I believe he will take us to where we want to be. We have to assume that Carlos will be more positive this year. Certainly having four first-choice wingers suggests we will have better balance and more width. And his utterances about FF suggests we will be playing two strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall correctly during the play-off final season we were all bemoaning our injury luck At a very quick glance (so may be wrong on the overall picture), Hutch played fewer games in 15/16 than last season, Lees and Loovens played the same number in both seasons and Forestieri played only two less games this season than last. I think we've had pretty bad luck with injuries for both seasons to be honest! Indeed, but significantly Lee and Hooper were out for v long periods - important variables missed out, when looking at the outcome.
