I get the feeling man city, real madrid and Bayern munich will not be interested in your hoof ball theory bobby.
The likes of Wimbledon and sheff utd that mastered the 70 yard punt in the 80's had england players in those teams and didn't do the MM scatter gun approach.
Are you seriously saying that the future of latics should now be built on the matt hudson 70-yard punt up to quigley and Fondop, because that is the recipe for dwindling crowds.
It's been mentioned on here by people that all our best results have come when we attack and keep the ball on the ground, and after two and a half years MM still reverts back to the hit and hope.
