What Is Match Fitness?
at 19:38 30 Sep 2024

We are hearing a lot that players who we’ve brought in are not yet match fit?

So what does that mean exactly? Is it simply that after running for a short period of time they are blowing out of their backsides? Is it a mental attitude fitness where being in a new club, getting to know new people they haven’t settled in yet? Or is it to do with them not yet having got to grips with the tactics the team play (don’t laugh!). Or are they carrying knocks that they haven’t quite recovered from?

I really can’t believe that these players who are young, athletic with all the tools needed to get fit quickly such as a super class gym and facilities, personal training regimes, physiotherapists, dieticians and chefs can’t get match fit quicker. By God I’m 63 and given all that they have at their disposal I could be fitter quicker!!

Or are WOL reverting to a bit of Mail / Express style reporting?

No, I haven’t posted in the wrong board.

This is the day Tommy Robinson has planned his peaceful march on Downing Street. Maybe many Wall fans there and others maybe.

For those travelling, bear it in mind.

Have match balls changed this year, are they lighter? I’ve not seen so many overhit shots before in all games.

Could be a good game this. Wednesday will go for it from the off I reckon. Leeds have had a less than perfect start.

What A Joke!

Saw this on Nextdoor this morning.

You couldn’t make this up-
‘Three of the five stages of the Junior Tour of Wales, which starts on Friday, have been changed as support vehicles would not be able to keep up with the riders without speeding.’
This is from BBC news and states that the cycling event had to avoid 20mph zones as the support vehicles can’t keep up with the speeding cyclists as they don’t have to adhere to any limits!

Preston Penalty Claim
at 10:30 18 Aug 2024

I was surprised that the claim made for a handball by Darling wasn’t awarded. However, I read somewhere that new laws ensured it wasn’t a penalty.

Anyone know what this law is? He handled it as far as I could see and prevented the ball being pulled back into the box.

The Flower of Scotland

A mature approach by Jim Telfer for the Scots to ditch their anthem due to its immature anti-English lyrics.

How absolutely refreshing is that to hear from a proud Scot!

Our Style Of Play
at 19:40 25 Jul 2024

I don’t pretend to be an expert on tactics, formations etc. indeed far from it but the style of play we’ve adopted for quite a few years just has not worked for us.

If the Köln game was anything to go by, and I only saw snippets, it seems this playing out from the back is going to be on the agenda once again. I just don’t think we are equipped to be successful with this style. We invite pressure on ourselves because we don’t move the ball quick enough and invariably we end up losing it after a volley of passes which we can’t keep up with or sending the ball long and give away possession.

Now, I don’t know if the new additions are going to help, does anyone, but another season of frustration awaits methinks.

It would be good to hear from those more tactically savvy than me on this such as RichardO. And maybe try to persuade me otherwise😬?

Stumbled upon this independently made documentary of the death of George Floyd and it’s worth watching (though quite long).
What a travesty of justice and abuse of justice this has been. If you’ve got the time, watch it and you’ll see it in a completely different light if you don’t already.
