I'm back from china for a couple of weeks and was at the game today (my wife is from Butuan City Philippines). Of course we were bad (especially the first 45) and it was a mess. You're right the pitch was not an issue. I understand your point about SC blaming everything, but he was magnificent on the touchline today and I'm glad he's here and passionate and angry. He was livid on BCFC Player and rightly so. Naturally, there are questions about why we performed so badly but I'm happy he's on the bus to Donny. I also think he was correct in his subs policy today. Ayling has been tremendous all season but he had to change after the debacle of the first half hour. Switching to 442 was sensible. Shocking result but respect for Steve from me today. I know you won't agree but greatest respect to you anyway my friend and fellow red. CTID
