What style of play do you prefer?

[shorehamview]

Are you a proponent of hoof, which is apparently as outmoded as hunting with a flint-tipped spear?

Are you in favour of tippy-tappy tika-taka passing no more than eighteen inches?

Or do you prefer winny-winny, the perfect combination of short passing, long passing, running, dribbling and general all-round scoring more goals than the opposition type of football? The sort of football that most of us know as, well, football?

Is your mind in the past, yearning for the days when we never, ever passed the ball less that eleventy-three yards with each kick? Or would you rather the ball was passed no more than two bootlaces' length, like that there Spain and Barcelona do every single time with never any long passes, ever?

Or, shock horror, would you rather see entertaining football? Football that combines short passes, long passes, dribbling, and all that palaver that most people know as football, but fot the comfort of those of narrow thinking we'll call winny-winny?

To be honest shoreham the first season under wilson was the most enjoyable for years, we passed it around and simply pushed teams aside.

the most successful style.. personally i prefer the German style.. high tempo.. high technical skill pass and move but not tippy tappy for the sake of it.. funny thing is that the Germans play an updated style of English style.. they've left us behind.. again.

Breasts. Now what was the question again?

Yes ! German football, as you say high tempo, skilled pass and move etc

Excellent example removing the puerile debate that the only alternative to our current laboured build up and absence of end product in the final third is hoof.

win pretty, win plain, win ugly! In that order but fucking win more than lose.

I don't particularly care too much about how we play, just as long as we win matches. I'm inclinced to prefer it on the floor, but if a long ball is required every now and then, just do it. Mix it up!

Only a moron would want tippy tappy with no result
Football is a game that pits one teams skill and endeavour against another teams skill and endeavour -
Sometimes a fluke goal, lucky break or an excellent peice of skill is the difference between winning and losing!
It needs to be innovative, surprising, pacy, sometimes sharp crisp passing, sometimes defence splitting long ball - whatever it takes!
This pigeon holing of style and formation is making the game sterile and boring
All I want down at BDTBL is winning football, with goals and excitement !!

German style - passing, pace, tempo, pressing.

I think it will be classed as hoof, but I think that is the future.

When we had Bassett the TV commentators would say a 50 yd long ball if we did it but it was a delightful long pass if Man Utd did it.
At the minute I would just like to see us win games. I really dont care how we do it. We took the piss from the wendies when they hoofed it two seasons ago. Worked though didnt it?
