Put in the "downhill skiiers" and "front runners" category.
Basically a side that only wins when things are going right for them and in the right conditions and at their home ground.

Yeah but that pretty much describes every team when they have won a game this year. Obviously when a side wins things have gone right & to plan but when a side loses, things haven't gone right or to plan.

A flat track bully traditionally is when you thrash rubbish sides but lose to decent sides. Crows are more downhill skiers than FTB's
