We let them improve by letting them have the ball

Ok yes a side is always likely to come back at you and yes I agree we needed to adapt.

But why are they coming out passive, sitting in a low block and allowing Shef Wednesday to have the ball? Who is telling them to do that or if nobody is why are they doing it? We keep the ball for fun at times, why stop doing that when we are ahead in games?

If Kenny could see what was happening (as he says) and it was not the coaches instructions why is he not doing something about it?
