How come we can play better in the second half in most games this season.

I think all evidence points to our crisis being a confidence issue. We have good players.

What needs to be done to make our players give a shit for 90 minutes of the game as opposed to turning up only for the last half hour?
 
Maybe its tactics.

Roy gets all his tactics wrong in the first half and then changes it around for the second half after realising that he fucked it up in the first place.

But people allege that he just sits on his hand and is too rigid w.r.t tactics....which is it?

To be fair to him, I think he did adjust his tactics after half time against Blackpool. But I would think that being 2-0 down at home also instilled a greater urgency in the players.

The only thing that I can think is that Roy reacts better when the situation unfolds rather than actually planning for it. Sometimes, it might be too late already.
