Shoreham Street - Til Death Us Do Part
"We've had another rung up the ladder", we've had "and.......another rung up the ladder" but now we have
"a couple of rungs up the ladder"
Today was a huge step forward for us in not only in league position but in terms of overall performance, style of play and confidence!
For me the current key to success with this team has to be our Midfield at the moment, when they do the basics right and play with attacking confidence the we get something out of the game and for those guilty of bashing Flynn and Murphy based on ability I think you need to sit and scratch your heads now because as said the ability has always been there with those two however I think you need to get it out of them and for some reason Clough has come in and seems to be the man doing so.
As we learnt massively under Weir and to an extent even under Wilson, you can try to your hearts content to play tippy, tappy, fancy football but if style takes priority over substance and you get nothing out of the game then it simply doesn't pay off and you don't win games.
For me today especially early on in the second half but for most of the game we got the balance right. The midfield were again superb and as a whole not only did we get the basics right for the most, we commanded the game and played football around on the deck. I would go as far as saying that the football we played in parts of this game was probably some of the best I have seen the blades play all season. Coming back to what I said above, the balance was spot on today because not only did we play some top football but we also created the chances and put them away with some very well made goals.
I'm not even going to mention individual players today because it isn't fair to do so because overall again it was just a very good game plan, a very good overall individual and team performance and a very deserved 3 points.
