Paradox 0 Posted September 14, 2004 Why is it that (Palace excluded) we seem to be overun in the first 45, then come back out a different team in the second?Is this deliberate? Does Worthy fear we can''t keep that pace up for the whole match, so try and keep it tight in the first, then nick something in the second? Or are we simply scared of the recent iconic sides & only get a grip in the second? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eio 0 Posted September 14, 2004 It was suggested on sky that it was almost like the players preferred to be attacking the end where all the City fans were / where the noise was coming from..It definately seemed the case against spurs, can''t remember where the fans were for the other games / halfs.. anyone else remember?
