That''s us playing to our best. We''re not world-beaters, but I felt we''d moved on a little from last season which was encouraging. Hopefully we can move on a bit more and a bit more as the season progresses. I was happy with our performance and felt we couldn''t really judge our season from it because we weren''t playing an established Prem team, so hard to measure.I went to the pub and watched Middlesborough v Newcastle on the TV and thought ''omigod, the pace and the passing... we''re going to be torn to shreds by teams like that!''Then I went home and watched MOTD and, partly because the big three hadn''t played yet, I felt that most of the teams on show didn''t actually look that much different to us. Suddenly I felt much more optimistic, I could see us battling with half of the teams in the Prem on something approaching equal terms. Very few of them put together many fast, one-touch, destructive passing moves that resulted in clear opportunities. There was a lot more scrapping, working, tackling and so on and it I now feel it looks very possible, if we keep playing like we did on Sat... and maybe improve bit by bit.I don''t expect anything out of games against the big guns, but never did - hopefully we can keep the score down to a respectable amount!! But after them... bring on the likes of Bolton, Blackburn, Portsmouth, Southampton, Fulham, Man City, West Brom... we''ll give any/all of them a good game I reckon, and pick up some points in the process....

nottingham nick 0 Posted August 16, 2004 Yes I watched the highlights on Sky and listened on radio and feel that we played fast for all 90 minutes. It was not like an old Division 1 game from last season where there were bad, quiet spells. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
