TheLawMan 6,240 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 By golly gosh, have I really missed that. I think you really need to go back to the Advocaat days when we actually played with real style, playing "through the thirds" as the MW described it today.Its probably the most frustrating aspect of our play over the last 10 years and in particular the last few seasons under McCoist. We very rarely could string 5 or 6 passes together, everything was panicky, and we had players who looked as uncomfortable as any player i can remember.....including our player of the year last year by the way.It was so refreshing to hear this is the style we are going to play and cant wait for new season now.It starts now !

The Godfather 75,872 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 As Albear said in another thread...I wish the season started tomorrow.I am buzzing for this season knowing the guy in charge is going to have us playing in the right way. It's going to be exciting, entertaining and we will see plenty of younger boys get their chance to shine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAmo'sThighs 848 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Nah tbf it was 28/09/13, we played the ball on the ground for rather medium sized spells against Stenhousmuir, 8 nil and a decent performance.But before that, 1999 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wearethepeople72 1,859 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 It's all very well saying that but first of all we need to sign players who can actually pass... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 They're gonna have to hire extra staff to clean all the jizz from the stands due to the sexy football.I can see our new favourite chant being'yaaay' after every pass and the opposition being unable to get the ball. Fuck yer Barca. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
delparlane 6,010 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Like Lintero said, we did have a few games every Blue Moon where we'd stomp the opposition by playing the ball on the ground, and we looked brilliant in doing so. Then it was back to square one the next week with long ball shite, as if the previous week's style and result were only a dream. Was frustrating as hell and I never, ever could wrap my head around that idiocy. Thank God for Warburton's approach - can't wait to see what he does with this team!

Fuck yer Barca.Probably get sick of this new tiki-taka football after a few months, find ourselves longing for a big 60 yard hoof into the box, followed by a stramash and a toe poked deflected goal.

AlBear. 8,499 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Not called 'long balls' anymore. From now on it's 'aerial tiki-taka'.Seriously, though long balls are apart of the game. We will at times utilise them under MW. Let's just remain calm during those sporadic times Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Get the fuckin' baw and start making fuckin' small triangulated one-touch passes up the fuckin' touchline". Confusion awaits..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
