I was surprised at some of the long ball tactics in the second half and did not hear anyone asking for that tactic. As I saw it Jimmy O'Connor hardly got a ball after Martis went off and Thomas started doing his runs forward. I am not critising Thomas for this and I am hoping this is just because he is new to the squad but I was glad when Coppinger came on and looked fit and produced his excellant run to get the deserved penalty.I hope that supporters behind Sean are not shouting for long ball tactics.
I didn't hear the interview myself but I was very surprised to be told about the 'gerrit forrad' comment, I didn't hear any calls for that from the crowd.There are odd occasions when Rovers begin to go long, Sean must know there are other reasons for it because the crowd weren't demanding it.

More of the same please Mr Thomas!
