2-0 up

100% we are winning 2-0 why rush things, i know supporters want to attack and be excited, but the odds are he will of lost it and it then comes straight back at us. As they say a time and a place for everything
 
I can see why..but then as a fan I want to be entertained and ultimately it was Exeter and not likes of forest on Wednesday... time and a place if u ask me. Also get if only 1 goal cushion but it was 2 nil... so for me attack and get goals

Games like that when you're 2-0 up, and there is little threat from the opposition is when you go for the jugular, and push up the goal difference. Could understand it if the actually play had been closely matched. Letting the ball go early isn't generally something grimmy does.

That's a load of rubbish, depending on where you are of course you might have much better view and if you think Grimshaw is the only authority on goalkeeping then you are mistaken.
Anyway how many of his kicks actually set us on the attack.
 
Norburn shouted at him to hold it and to take some steam out of the game. Think Grimmy would have kept hold of it anyway.

And that is one of the reasons I think Norburn is one of the teams biggest issues, there was so little steam in yesterday's game, and Exeter were dire, the latter stages of the game were the opportunity to really go for the kill, and give the supporters something to cheer.
 
Grimmy is on the pitch I'm in the stands, think he is better placed to make the call. For me the throw to Joseph was the thing to do

No. Joseph had a couple of yards on the nearest pursuer and a whole half to run into.

We immediately lost possession from the eventual kick out, so where was the harm in trying to break on a committed opposition? I thought that was supposed to be our strength?

Because if they counter and make it 2-1 everyone wets the bed and calla him naive.

Disagree. No one is going to have a go for trying to attack. People were annoyed because after wasting time allowing their team to regroup, the subsequent kick went straight to them. So the so called safe tactic actually cost us possession.

If the opportunity's are there you take them.

Just like when we've passed back to work an opening, when you het that opening you don't then go back unnecessarily, you've created the chance to cross, shoot, 1-2, etc.

I can understand more if we were playing better sides in the championship, but were not.

When 2 nil up, against let's be honest many poor sides, we should push on when opportunities present themselves.

It should have been a relatively simple throw or kick from Grimshaw to hit the space for him to run into.

Totally disagree, but that's what all this is about different opinions and respecting other peoples views, i just viewed it with my football head on that's all

I have seen many comments on here about Exeter being dire/shite etc, but that is because of how we played and not letting them do what they do best, we nullified their style of play so for me full credit to the staff and players

But we do just that on other occasions, we attack when we've created something or an opportunity presented itself, so it's no different.

If he did go on and scored from it we're in a far more comfortable position.

There should have been very little risk and we gave the ball away anyway just after.
 
I’m somewhat comforted by the fact that, upon reflection, yesterday was us in 2nd gear, saving our legs for some much bigger upcoming fixtures.

There will only be the players who know if the decision was right, i don't like the word IF in football it's to grey you could say that about many things in the game for example

IF Rhodes have scored the penalty
IF Dembele's corner hadn't gone out of play
If Grimshaw had thrown it to Joseph

We can only work on facts not if's and buts

I don't know about you, but I watch Blackpool playing a struggling side with less quality than us, when we're 2 ahead, I'd like to see us take the chance to score more when available.

If you go 3 up you can probably make more changes earlier.

With my football head on No - but yes when the time is right and personally its that word again IF.
 
Get the feeling that they got a bollocking on Tuesday when we were going for a 3rd, lost possession and Burton scored.
 
Six and two threes for me. I can see the advantage of both options. I would like Blackpool to gain a reputation for causing opposition teams harm at every opportunity. The throw out to Joseph would have put Exeter on the back foot and had Joseph been challenged I would like to think he could have spread the play by giving Hamilton something to run on to. On the other hand, calming the play after a surge forward by Exeter enables us to reset our shape. As others have said, against the likes of Forest, where they will have most of the ball, keeping hold would be the wise choice. Against Exeter?....perhaps our lads could have afforded themselves a bit of freedom to play out quickly.
