I'm not going to argue with you mate on an internet forum, but I hope by the above sentence you are talking about Accrington Stanley.
In the first half we played the ball on the floor and in to feet. The only team constantly fouling was Morecambe and why Kelly wasn't given a red card for his constant fouling, including a two footed challenge on Brown, is beyond me. The final foul count of Morecambe 23 Accrington Stanley 15 shows who was the niggling, fouling team. And that's against 10 men!!!
It wasn't until the final quarter of the game, when the Stanley team were tiring, that Morecambe started to pass the ball on the floor. I was actually surprised by the overall lack of quality in the play of Morecambe. Has Harvey done all he can? Ten years is a lot of time without much to show for it.
