Should we be hoofing it or playing football ?

Obviously, we all prefer the team to play football. I think under Powell we are possibly trying to play more football, but it doesn't seem to be working.
This is possibly because we don't have enough good players who are able to pass the ball to a Charlton player, generally in a forward direction.It's obviously a lot easier to pass sideways and backwards and of course also necessary.
However, playing Tranmere today reminded me of when John Barnes was in charge of them at the start of last season and tried to get them playing football, resulting in them being bottom and him getting the sack. The physio took over and is still in charge. He kept them up and they are presently out of the bottom 4 still.
He reverted to playing less football and their results improved.
For THIS season with the players we have, should we do the same.

If it means time wasting , 5 minutes after the kick off , like Tranmere were doing today , you can stick that kind of football.

They have a lump Showomini who can deal with long balls forward. Our only strikers over 5'10" is Benson who is still fairly lightweight. It's why Parky is out of a. job. Behave!
