Can't understand why everyone seems to think Thursday will be easy (if it goes ahead!)
Bog of a pitch against agricultural hoofballers is the worst case scenario for a team attempting to play passing football without a longball plan B.
Truly hope I'm spectacularly wrong!!
Probably because we’ve just easily beaten the same “agricultural hoofballers” 5-1 on our own bog of a pitch. And, because since the start of March their league record reads W1 L6 (the solitary win coming against Sutton Coldfield).
We might play better when everything is in our favour, but that’s the same for any team. You don’t get to April, after a relatively wet winter, as long-time league leaders with zero ability to adapt to different conditions.
There are no guarantees in football, but personally I’d consider it a bit of an upset if we didn’t win should the game go ahead tomorrow.
