Are we now too professional?

[kuriousoranj]

Literally just before the start of the second half our team did a routine with cones at the side of the pitch. That energy should be saved for the game, what were they meant to be doing? Doncaster were all in position and ready, they knew what they had to do..and did it!

I wouldn't put that 2nd half performance down to a warm-up.

I'd just put the second half performance down . Give it a lethal injection , kill it , possibly jump up n down on it a bit and then move on

 

[kuriousoranj]

Maybe too professional off the pitch but not on it?

No I wouldn't but psychologically we should've been out there facing them ready...not fannying around pitch side doing a warm up routine?

They've done routines like that just after half time for years.

As anyone who had watched them would know

That routine is something a lot of teams do, each to their own really. All that stuff comes from the medical department rather than the manager these days. I'm told the sports science guys have been at the club for years.
Personally I think it's overkill, I don't think you see it much in the Premier League. But it's something lower league clubs seem to do regularly.

Until the next time it happens.

Nah, once somethings dead its dead mate. At least in my admittedly limited experience of deadness

Funnily enough I do. On the face of it rather contradictory I know

Football is a bizarre thing - just before they broke for their first goal, there was a clear throw in for us which went their way - that goes our way and it's back to a different game.
