Are we sleepwalking to a relegation battle BTW?

Rank defending yet again

[Spike]

Just seen the replay and they were offside, sloppy header backwards to give them the goal too... so frustrating as they defend well and will now sit back and soak it up like the first half and hit on the counter. Going to be a hard chase now.

[NewquayRed]

Soooo many chances to clear before that 

[Banjo Island]

Pathetic powder puff defending pathetic

[collier]

First half linesman sees offside when he is 2 yards on. This half Sharpe stood offside and suddenly his eyes don't work ffs.

[ExiledAjax]

As I said. Glass cannon.

[MarcusX]

The absolute bullshit offside rule strikes again.

If Sharp isn’t there, Vyners not under pressure - it’s affecting play it should be offside, but it’s not

Surely Sharp is offside?

Yep, poor all round, from us and the Lino. It’s always the soft goals that cost us

[erndogz]

That's offside

[Peter1450]

Max reminded me of flapper Phillips for that one

[ChubStixx]

Poor quality game of football this.

Waiting for this

That`s why they`re where they are and we`re where we are,

Sharp goes for the ball has to be offside.

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Can't touch the ball now, they've woken up.

Were they following that rule or did the linesman miss the offside? Sharpe certainly made an effort to jump imo so him not touching ball was irrelevant in terms of offside.

Edit: Could be right actually on replay, he does go for the ball. Initially thought he just stood off

Zak has been playing well of late. But he always has a mistake in him.

And that, is why we just are not good enough to be a top half / top 6 team. We all knew deep down that was going to happen 

Perhaps slightly negative. Soft goal but we have been and still will be in this

[And Its Smith]

James and then (I think) Scott can clear and don’t. Cross isn’t stopped with any intent. Poor header. Goal.  It’s a bad goal but we should have scored before then. Not good enough in either final third 

[marcofisher]

Championship officiating is rank, puts you off going!

Been saying it for ages, we are just far to soft 

A relegation battle could be on and I wouldn’t fancy our gutless wonders in that. For the first time in a few years there are no real ‘dead certs’ for relegation - just a lot of teams that could finish anywhere between 24th and 16th

[Bris Red]

How we haven’t scored tonight for **** sake

[Spike]

I honestly have no idea how we've not scored, so bloody frustrating >.<

[Lew-T]

Their goal is so soft. Mean bastard centre half there takes the lot in the air!

Zak’s or Tanner’s error, look more like Tanner went for a ball he shouldn’t have done

It’s not offside

Based on what? He jumped with the defender. It's offside, you don't have to touch the ball to be offside.

Vyner. Under No pressure passes it to them to start the attack.

Don’t think we’re at that point yet. Think we’re a better side than last year. But looking at the table, you do look and think are there three sides there who I’m really confident we’ll finish above? Hmm.

[Redrascal2]

How many chances do we need to create to get a goal.
