Your point is, Hoot's negative tactics may be getting the best points we can manage

and anyone who disagrees has no way of proving otherwise.

My point would be that outside of his draw our way to safety approach. Hoot's idea of a tactical masterplan is putting another striker on if we are losing.

        isn't adding more strikers a general managerial recation to being behind? (NCFC) - mr carra, May 7, 14:06:30
        
        yes exactly. That is the only in-game tactical change I have seen from Hoot all season (NCFC) - phrankin, May 7, 14:07:51
        
        Incredible isn't it? (NCFC) - duke of york, May 7, 13:32:05

        I have stated quite clearly that I think our tactics are defensive (NCFC) - mr carra, May 7, 14:03:33
      - mutterings and concerns about crap tactics, poor subs started as far back as QPR at home. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 7, 12:52:13
        
        so what? (NCFC) - mr carra, May 7, 12:56:25
        
        Worse than the negative tactics and outlook. Is the play for a draw attitude. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 7, 13:00:09

        because our attacking players are to be honest poor by Prem standards (NCFC) - mr carra, May 7, 12:58:02
        
        They did fine last season. Hoot plays a defensive game (NCFC) - phrankin, May 7, 13:06:05
        
        history is littered with players who have had one exceptional Prem season (NCFC) - mr carra, May 7, 13:09:57
