I think all people want is a winning side. Balls to the rest of it. But yes we won't win like that every week.

However I think the basic solid setup is a must. Add some extra creativity for sure but this is a league for grinding out results.

Fans were happier Saturday than I've seen them in years.

Definitely. But had we not won, which will happen, questions will be asked about some of the selection decisions.

anyway. Agreed that we need a solid spine and to ensure we're hard to play against, but some ball retention and creativity WILL be needed

I'm intrigued to see his next three selections. Horses for courses? And if so, what does the manager count as a tough course? Is a trip to Wimbledon the sort of game where you go two up top? All will be revealed...
