Playing freely is what I've been asking for a lot this season. I understand wanting to set up with a large focus on not conceding, but I don't believe it suits the group as a whole and it does not play to the strengths of some of our better players. (It also wasn't good viewing for a playoff game and possibly affected the atmosphere).

For instance, to create one clear chance today and expect Kemp to take it is unrealistic. Yes, his decision making was poor (he is a L2 player after all) - he hesitated, perhaps looking for a penalty as some have suggested - but it's a numbers game. The more you create the more you score. Hitting the back of the net is a habit.

I don't believe this tie is over. The goal changes very little. We were going to have to score and win up there if it had stayed 0-0. I fully expect Revs to keep it tight again for the large majority and hope to nick a goal. Will of course need a 2nd to avoid penalties but taking the lead might alter Stockport's approach, or they might just try to blow us away (which would usually be the kind of tactic that we would take advantage of, albeit they are a very good side capable of doing just that).
