I suspect what Scott is getting at is that they are a new team, under a new coach with new ideas and new tactics............and that playing the way the coach wants them to, and they obviously want to also, is more important than winning this one at Barrow.
Put another way, the team could perhaps go out and beat Barrow, but by not follow the processes and game plan set down by the coach.....but what good would that be going forward as a team.....it would simply show the coach that he was wasting his time with them, ..............or at best that he still had a whole heap of mind re-setting to do with the players.
That's my read anyway.
