Don't you just love the headline, "Perfect preparation for Wolves"? To be fair, the article refers principally to the victory over the mighty Daggers, but it does sort of gloss over a few important details.
Little matters like Winston Reid and Barerra flying half way around the word to compete in international fixtures. Then there is the continued absence of Hitzlespurger and Dyer. And the continued goal draught of Carlton No Goals - although according to the OS, 45 minutes of goal-less action against D&R sees Cole putting increased pressure on Piquionne and Obinna.
If I was outlining the perfect preparation for a crucial six pointer relegation battle, it wouldn't involve any game on the Monday before and nor would it include Green, Da Costa, Barerra, Reid and Jacobsen being away on international duty.

I don't want to put a reverse negative spin on things - I am sure there were some pluses, not least the three goals, with McBenni rounding off a 23 pass move from the kick off the highlight. I just wish the OS would stop spinning like New Labour on speed.
I sippose, to be fair to them, they're gonna say that aren't they? Don't get me wrong, the OS drives me potty. No real information and just a load of drivel portraying how marvellous things are. But then, it's the same with any business when you think about it. You don't really tell your customers exactly what's what. Thing is, if you understand that, it all comes across as a bit patronising.
ReplyDeleteI just want them to be a little more restrained. Useful rather than perfect in that headline for example. Maybe explain where Faubert was that night.
