I paid their striker a disservice for their 2nd goal, that was some header.

How on earth is Annis still on? He was shite!

Vyner yet again?

Don't think so this time, deflection done for us I think.

Crap first half!

Pring and Mehmeti have to be hooked at half time, Roberts and Mebude on. Pring is clearly not ready and Mehmeti is just shit.

FFS 

Cam isn't fit. Get Roberts on.

Mehmeti a passenger. 

Sadly, I have to agree.

Not a red for me, still work to do for Knight and the other defending coming over 

Knighty would surely have got his shot away before the defender got across?

Gash losing, again

How is that not a red?

Don’t…i would sooner have LJ back. And that says it all as I couldn’t bear it! 

I hope you're on a wind up?

What a header Knighty.

RTV just said James not involved today - is he injured?

'Minor issue' same as Twine.

Already on holiday in February?

I was starting to think that tbh. Has Annis actually touched the ball yet?

You missed out 'already'.

Pitch looks like it's had sheep grazing on it 

I was skiv....working near Sheffield during the week (Wakefield) and it absolutely lashed down all the time I was there. Not surprised the pitch is sodden to be honest.

Bollocks! Soft goal. Zac not tight enough IMO.

Is that Ross McC in the studio? Why isn't he playing?

Sorry if I've missed something, just got in.

Edit, just read it's Kal, sorry.

Worked with an engineer years ago with an abnormally long head, nicknamed 'Tefal'.

He wasn't the best engineer so, when the company asked us to set up our own individual businesses and go sub contract, he called his 'Deja vu ltd' as he always had to go back. Strange looking fella but a good laugh!

Why wait till then ?

Cheers dad, love u too!

We are screwed and it's my fault as I've put City to win on my accy.

I apologise unreservedly for my confidence and will lock myself in a darkened room after the game.

What does ' they need you for longer' mean? Is it a valentines thing?

Honestly if anything summed up Mehmeti, it was the assist. Got himself into a good area, decent bit of skill, miss places an easy pass, yet somehow works in his favour and gets the ball back, delivers a brilliant goal-ball after. 

I have to agree Pete, so frustrating, as he has all the skills to be excellent. Maybe he should be more 'off the cuff'.

My first half thoughts included this:

 

Thought we played with composure, intensity, professionalism, and desire. throughout that 45 minutes.

The frustrating ‘nearly’ bit is when we get around or into their box it’s nearly, nearly, nearly, every  time as the final ball has been lame either to a defender or their keeper, that is the huge area for improvement. Memheti, Bell, Roberts, have all been guilty of delivering a very weak final ball, following very enterprising and I catching approach play.

The top teams have that ruthless, clinical edge in the final third that we are blatantly lacking at the moment.

 

Second half we played just as well, however, we very much did deliver quality balls in the final third (even if the first goal came from a pass from an off side position.)

Without wishing to over react that was one of the most complete team performances from us in a league game (against a very good opponent) in a very long time. Well done all the players and the staff.

We even scored following a throw in, when did that last happen!?

Only disappoint was not keeping a clean sheet.

So, we have shown in recent weeks what a solid / capable team we can be against two premier league teams and certainly did so again tonight against a team high on confidence and likely to be in the promotion hunt at the end of the season.

A very good performance and a well deserved three points.

Well played you Reds!

 

 

 

 

It wasn't offside, it came of their bloke, into the path of Mehmeti didn't it?

Really good performance all round by our boys. Max MOTM for me, closely followed by James, who was everywhere.

'Oh when the saints get beat 3-1, oh when the saints get beat 3-1' etc.

Well played lads.

In this case then, Flat Holm, maybe add Steep Holm on a good day. I think they were suggested as new stadium locations in the past so it could become their heart land.

Stolen Holm would be more apt. Hopefully no Holm once the kebab man starts building houses.
