We should have won pretty easily really. They were fucking awful. Good result though and hopefully we can carry on improving. They were not an awful team. They have some average players but their shape, organisation and workrate were very effective. We kept our discipline and matched them but we didn’t have the quality to unlock them. The penalty and the sending off that should have resulted may well have changed iit. |

As I say this league is competitive and although the standard isn’t as good as the Prem it’s certainly not as bad as it is often made out to be. |

Well if any game needed a good strong experienced Referee it was this one.
Having been there myself for many years I am always loath to criticise the officials. I am sure most would agree that the penalty decision in the second half was beyond comprehension.
As for Linesmen/assistants are concerned it was directly in front of him and clearly visible. I have been convinced now for sometime that they are clearly instructed to NOT INTERVENE in major decisions such as this, and even close offsides. If true, a further step backwards in Refereeing standards.
Totally unacceptable today.

Hokusai said 'I'm 100% sure many people don't know the meaning of the word corrupt.' As with the majority of Americans it appears. Unfortunately the truth! How is it possible to be elected as the president of the USA when you are almost 80 and behave like you are 13!  Just keep telling the simple message of lies, false narratives and false dreams and just keep repeating it ad infinitum, much easier than telling the truth, which is complicated. |

Hitler said as well, if the lie was big enough people would belive it!  |

We got in behind a lot and we only drew because of our inability to make the most of good play. Thought they weren’t much bette than Derby. |

They certainly weren't a 4th placed team.
Imagine if they went up! They would get spanked 4 or 5 every week!!!

We're just cursed, I'm convinced of it! We are mate. A gypsy curse. A Romany gypsy who was a mate of mine told me, when I was a kid. I'm pretty certain he wasn't winding me up. Whatever we want to make of that is up to us. Obviously you're intuitive. Mind you when you look at us it doesn't take a genius lol |
