Re: Take me home, pothole roads.
This scenario of crumbling roads is something that we will all have to live with for decades if not longer. Change has to come from the top and there just isnt the will to make it happen. This norm of **** surfaces is too entrenched in the mindset of those in charge. Currently on a 3 week road trip ...

This game has 0-0 written all over it. We're too good defensively to let them score...and we don't seem to have what it takes to create any chances. Fleming's 1st half chance to change the perspective and, after brilliant control , completely fluffed it with a virtual back pass to the keeper.
