Megson Stays

I'm glad about this. We don't need the upheaval. What we need is to play like those first ten minutes of the second half on Saturday.

Play it on the floor, make the opponents chase at shadows, and get behind their defence. If they haven't got the ball they can't hurt us. If they have got the ball we get behind it and stay close to them so they get no time on the ball.

I think we have the players to manage a 4-4-2 (just), although I have only seen them the once this season - however, the 5-3-2 isn't working and something needs to give. But formations count for nothing - it's going to take an attitude shift, the players have to want it, the manager has to want it and we have to get behind them.
