  1. Might as well give him a run in the side now. He may not be up to it, but we’ve got a chance to see what he’s like and if he can cut it at this level. No point in bringing on the likes of Andy King who we know won’t get a new contract. 10 minute cameos aren’t going to do Mebude any favours, either play him or don’t even bother having him on the bench.

    I thought we should have had 2 and them 1. Very odd performance thought Williams was a bit lucky as well.

    Thought that too, Williams was lucky, reckon with VAR he’d have been in trouble.

  3. TGH much better on the ball than Tanner, but certainly a much weaker defender. Put through a lovely ball to King from which he set up the winner so certainly contributed to our victory in the end. Hope he gets a go further forward soon.

    How did he not get a yellow for the foul that led to the free-kick they scored from?  Weimann got it instead.

    He played really well today.  Glad to see him back fit.  Ice bath no doubt tonight.

    Think it was because Weimann booted the ball away, our mate Mr Stroud liked booking us for doing that but not PNE!

    from the replay I’ve seen taken from a camera behind the goal, I think a bit of the ball overhangs the paint, and therefore it’s inside the area, as per my post above.

    Maybe once he’s fully caught the ball, it’s just over, but as his hands first came into contact with the ball, he was outside IMO. Fine margins of course, but we always love a talking point! :D 

  6. I was bang in line with it in S21 and definitely handball, I went mental and I rarely get animated at games. Although I agree it was nearly impossible for the ref or linesman to see it and even with VAR I don’t think they would have a camera angle from my seat which is bang in line with the edge of the box on the left side. So probably wouldn’t have been given even with VAR. 

  7. Simpson isn’t playing because, when he has played he’s looked like his legs have gone and just isn’t up to it any more. Reminds me a bit of Chris Brunt last season. Pearson clearly trusts him to be around the place, however he probably doesn’t want to tarnish his mate’s reputation by playing him every week, for him to get turned inside out by every winger with a little bit of pace. This shouldn’t be the case, but probably Alex Scott at RWB is the best option at the moment, which is laughable really considering we let Jack Hunt go in summer, who is probably the best option we would have right now.
