You have summed up in 20 words what I was trying to say in my much longer post on the Brackley thread.

We are ill equipped for plan B but we are very good at plan A.

Roberts and Smith had the Boston full backs on toast and Elliott had too much pace and movement for their centre backs. They had to have a go in the second half so instead of rubbing our hands and going for 2 or 3 more goals we dropped off and left Elliott isolated to fight (and lose) the midfield battle they wanted to have. If it was a one off I could understand it but there is a pattern particularly in away games.

If we do go up we will need a more flexible approach because half the games are ugly battles in the league above.
