Buffs FC travelled to meet second placed team. What would've been a shoot out between 451v and 4-3N-1-2 was changed a bit due to form issues with our DR. So we opted to go 3-5-2V.
Things didn't start well - we had possession issues which, for the Buffs is not usually a problem, and too many shots were on target. We went 1 down. A change to Hard Defending helped with possession and shots on target were a thing of the past XD but it was not the complete answer as the Buffs were creating little in the way of threat. A change at HT to 3N-1-4-2 saw the Buffs run out 3-1 winners with little further threat. (although it took a final minute goal to make it look more comfortable.) The opposition did try a change to 4-3-3 around 70 mins but with little effect.
After the match Buffs Mad said "These -1-2 formations always seem to start fast."
The Buffs are now 13 pts clear. Thoughts are now on the Cup with the shock news that Nord FA have allowed a decent recovery period for a change,
