Its about time MR started to bring Shithousing in when we are leading in Extra time and disrupt the other teams momentum!! Watching games over Xmas and some teams have it down to a Tee if you ask me.

Twatty headers are caused by momentum and pressure! if someone went down rolling around like they have been shot and have a nice freindly conversation with the trainer/medics for a couple of minutes it would certainly stop the city players panicing. You have to admit City were panicing like FookNo amount of shithousing will stop twatty headers towards your own box instead of upfield and players giving refs decisions to make on the edge of the area
That header (by Thomas?) was inexcusable really.No amount of shithousing will stop twatty headers towards your own box instead of upfield and players giving refs decisions to make on the edge of the area

Possession in the right areas winds the clock down. When trapped in defence hoof it as far as you can and buy yards.I agree we need to get better at shithousing late in games when we have the lead. Rolling on the ground like you got shot, late substitutions just to waste time, taking the ball to the corner flag and dawdling on it, taking your own sweet time to take goal kicks (which Collins has been trying to do) or throw ins etc. These are all certain elements we need to add to our gamesmanship to see things out.
Absolutely this. We’ve seen some appalling examples of shithousery in recent seasons, think Preston and Blackburn at the Ricoh last season, which drove me, and others, mad. It’s not why I pay money to see, and I don’t want to watch my team doing it. I’d rather we passed the ball better and retained possession, and didn’t make daft decisions and mistakes, which give the other team an opportunity to get back at us. The best way to hang onto a one goal lead, is to go up the other end and score again, ie, Sheff Wed.This is why the game of football has basically gone to shit.
"shithousing" is now such a part of the game that we are happy to see our own team do it.
Personally i'd rather not bother paying £30+ to hope my club time-waste.
Yeah as 20% beyond the recommended time seems strange when you condense it down?Shithousing can also add more time on than was given , and more time for the opposition to score

Yep2 points on this:
1. at our level, it’s very rare to see additional time added on beyond what’s been announced. Friday for example, there’s a free kick and a goal in stoppage time and still just 40 seconds added on to the 4 mins.
2. it’s also about breaking up the flow of the game.
I don’t know how many minutes the gamesmanship I suggested will add to the clock, but at least it alleviates the immediate pressure on the defence after an onslaught of attacks that come in waves. Basically it breaks up the momentum and forces the opponent to start all over again and buys us time to get a breather and not panic. Ideally getting a second goal ala Sheff Wed would be the best option, but otherwise shithousing is the way to go to protect a lead if the team is unable to protect/manage it by passing the ball around.Possession in the right areas winds the clock down. When trapped in defence hoof it as far as you can and buy yards.
The gamesmanship you suggest just adds minutes on the clock and actually increases the pressure.

Nah - I’d rather us win games. The shithousery is forgotten if you take 3 pointsAbsolutely this.

This is the issue.... fans just lap up all the shit, shrug their shoulders, and say "well this is the modern game".
(i'm not claiming to know the solution either!)
It was why the back pass rule was introducedIt's been a thing for years.
Not really that - we’d rather just see our team win.This is the issue.... fans just lap up all the shit, shrug their shoulders, and say "well this is the modern game".
