come to think of it you're probably right

there was a pass that Pilks did for Hooper to run onto but Hoops was on his heels and in the end it looked like a stupid ball. I think Ricky would have spotted it was the only option Pilks had as he isn't going to run past anyone.

Like you say there is room for improvement, which is good in a way, much better than having no idea what to work on.

Although I'm not one for getting on players backs I do think it's time for a change. Snoddy could certainly do with a rest and I was disappointed that Ozil out thought and out jumped Russell Martin for their second.

        For me it's down to the speed of our attacking play. (NCFC) - emmaroyds, Oct 21, 10:20:26
        
        I would disagree about the speed but more likely due to having more options for the pass (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Oct 21, 10:34:39
        
        come to think of it you're probably right (NCFC) - emmaroyds, Oct 21, 10:46:40
