Re: v darlington match thread

It has been mentioned here before that our players movement "off the ball" is very poor. The only options for our man in possession is to pass to a closely marked colleague or beat a man before releasing the ball, except that very few of our players have the confidence to take an opponent on. Too often it's a case of the big, hopeful punt, usually easily dealt with by the opposition's defenders. Is this down to lack of coaching, or just lack of confidence? Grimsby's quick "give and go" interchanges, with players creating angles which took our defenders out of the game, was a joy to watch (through gritted teeth). Why can we not seem to adopt this style of play?
