04 UTB SHEFFIELD UNITED <strong>vs</strong> WATFORD
UTB 05 Paul Heckingbot tom MANAGER’S NOTES The challenge is on. We are into the final third of the season and the tough tests keep coming. There’s been a lot of talk this week after we suffered a second consecutive defeat but there’ll be no panic from inside Shirecliffe and this week, with no midweek fixture, we’ve had a great opportunity to focus on recovering, training hard and looking towards today’s game. This week it has been easy to forget our league position and points tally. I’m confident that 22 other teams in this division would swap with us and those clubs are very aware of what we’re capable of. It is important to focus and be driven, as a club, we cannot be side-tracked by anything else, we will continue to just concentrate on the next game and the next opportunity to win. We want to be better than the opposition in every area. We appreciate it did not go to plan against Middlesbrough or Millwall, but we have all learned from those experiences. In the Boro game, we weren’t at our best, but in terms of what we normally produce at the top end of the pitch regarding chances we were way above average for the season. For example, our average amount of shots in the opposition box is 10 with four on target. We had 14 with 10 on target. The opposition matched their average but arguably they were assisted with a tackle and a decision in the middle of the park when we were overloaded. Simply, we didn’t take our chances at one end and were punished at the other. And then in London last week, we were off the pace in the first half, they started better, and we looked like a team who had played less than three days earlier and had a big trip. We had to make changes second half and what hurts me most is that having wrestled the momentum away from Millwall and showed tremendous character, we switched off at key moments and conceded two very uncharacteristic goals which cost us the game. I have to acknowledge my sending off through these notes – I lost my temper and deservedly was shown a red card. I’ll take the punishment, but the reasons behind it are a separate issue, which will continue. That’s not an excuse for what I did, but I need to keep having conversations with match officials and the administrators. I feel my argument from this, and other incidents remain – it happened again at Millwall at the weekend. We have quality ball carriers who are getting targeted and punished for trying to continue their runs rather than hitting the deck. Opposition players, in general, go down with contact and our players get booked. My frustration is the direction the game is going, we’re allowing it to happen, we’re rewarding the dark arts of diving, timewasting, feigning injuries all the time, it seems. The conversations with the powers that be is that we are encouraged to stay on our feet and cut out the cynical aspects of the game but it continues to happen. As it stands, in our game of football, it is the behaviours that everyone agrees we don’t want to see that are being rewarded and surely that cannot be right. This is my platform to give my thoughts and my opinion is that for the good of the game in general, this has to be addressed. Hecky SHEFFIELD UNITED <strong>vs</strong> WATFORD
