I find it a little depressing that footballing bullies are winning out over our beautiful

football but I think that is more our lack or experience and slightly naive approach at this level.

The sides we have lost to are not poor, just basic in the football purist's sense. They all have decent trainers though, which is incredibly important at this level...just look at Newcastle from Benitez to Bruce.

I am sure we will get to grips with this season if and when the injuries abate. But I hope we stick with our philosophy, with a few minor adjustments and learning some lessons.
