    Thankfully that’s your only criticism...I thought I might have rambled on a bit.

    I’ll certainly try mate but as you can imagine it’s not always easy finding the time to write such a detailed report.

    You need to ease up on the tactical and systems analysis. I’m afraid I switched off after the first sentence.

    Wow..there’s just no pleasing some folk,..the time and effort I’ve put into that report and I just seem to be getting more negative feedback than positive.

    My report on Bossman’s minority report.

    Well looking at this post I (like most people I suspect) thought this was only going one way. A long rambling dissection of the match. Up front an introduction, in midfield an analysis of every player and move then a strong defence of the poster’s opinions. Instead Bossman has surprised pundits by going straight in with three upfront. Direct, to the point, and with no room for mis-interpretation.

    Points.

    We’ll – 9. Forward looking and indicating we’re all in this together.

    ‘be’ – 8. No nonsense, never puts a foot wrong.

    ‘reight’ - 9. Bossman could easily have fielded ‘OK’ here but puts on a tarn lad. Inspired.

    Can he pull off another result like this against Norwich?

    Brilliant in-depth analysis of tactics and team shape. A bit light on individual performances but I'll let it go as it's your first attempt.

    Good first effort. Still a young lad, so plenty of time to develop. Extra game time will bring him on faster. Perhaps a loan spell reporting at a League Two club might help? Could be worth a bob or two down the line, so let's make sure we retain an interest in him.

    Finally @StatisTYKE understood the direction I’m was going for in my report and I appreciate the feedback @Brush but it was my first report so surely I’m allowed a bit of slack, but your points are duly noted.

    No, but in my head he sounds like a young Ashley Peacock from Corrie.
