Our only downfall was a lack of communication, there were several times one of our players received the ball and wasn't told "man on". We played well other wise.
We did very well at keeping the ball down and keeping the passes short. (With myself as an exception on the short passes. I know,I'm working on it)
One thing though.... THROW INS!!!!
We should give the thrower TWO options every throw in. When we play teams that pick up on the fact 90% of our throws go to Thorny's or Sam's head, they make it very hard for it to work. Neither Thorny, nor Sam play on the wings, so if a striker is beyond them, the winger should be covering Thorny or Sam's position, as they come out of it to deliver the flick on header. By covering their position, not only is the player covering now another option for the thrower, they are also one more defender should the throw not go to plan.
Sorry my report is so late.

for fucks sake! If we are talking tactics here how about the throw-in taker throws the ball infield to a team-mate who plays it back to the thrower with one touch.The thrower controls and plays the ball back to another of his players who has come across from midfield. The defending full-back is drawn over to the thrower and attempts to close him down. Meanwhile, an attacking full-back starts his run behind his throw-in taker and behind the defence.The attacking midfielder plays the ball into space behind the opposition for his full-back to run onto.
Less of your 2 options! Its not that difficult.
Ta for taking the time to do your first ever blog Perre-Perre-Perre-Perre. And dear, dear, dear anonymous, whether or not I agree with your Hansen-esque tactical know-how, I shall say two things:
1. What a shame you can't encourage people to post on the blog, before panning their views.
2. You have inspired me to change the settings on this blog so that Anonymous comments are no longer possible. Ciao!
I agree with Lottso - Huggin' Bear.
Nothing wrong with a debate but let's be nice to each other.
The real question is, 'Are you a man or anony mouse?'
