Fatalist Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 What a @%&@. His comment on the equaliser being in the 5th of 4 added minutes? "Don't give away a free kick." Like he never did that in his playing days? No credit for our performance against all odds, coming back from a goal down etc., nor the support. Cheers Lorro.

Luxo Jr. Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I like Lawro. He's one of the few witty ex-footballers MOTD bring in. Sure, we probably deserved a bit more credit, but he wasn't wrong - 95th minute free kicks shouldn't be given away if you can help it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChippenhamRed Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Not criticising the team today, but broadly speaking Lawrenson is right. The manager is paid to influence what the team does on the pitch; when the referee blows his whistle is up to the referee and nothing to do with the manager. A referee can legitimately add further time if something has disrupted play after the board's gone up. It's the same for both teams and if we'd scored a third during the fifth added minute no one would have complained. Just play to the whistle and concentrate on defending the set piece. As for MOTD not saying much about us, they have to work their way through dozens of games and get to say about 20 seconds worth on each game, if they say anything at all! There will be hundreds of untold stories at every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When there's a few seconds to go, don't give away a free kick in a good position when you don't need to. He didn't miss any point, Lawro was spot on.

Had the free kick not been conceded the ref would probably have blown up 15 seconds later. But once a free kick is given, refs tend to let that next passage of play culminate.
