Shades of that MV game some years back, when Zwanny got sent off and we spent the entire second half in the defensive field....

Would be nice if we could actually hold the ball a bit.... turn over is atrocious.
Almost down to the last 15mins..... going to be disappointed if we don't take a win from this!!

Phewww... Alright... Not a complete disaster... We were so close but ahead of this game I had tipped a tie to be facetious but really didn't expect it so, on the upside, there's some fantasy points to me :D

A draw like that feels like a loss. :(

The team did so well first half. Really look like they are on the up. Looking forward to the next game.

Yeah gotta say, on a whole I'm pretty happy with that... Heward-Bell is going to get one of those penalties one of these days, been up against two and almost gotten to both of them.
The other thing, tbh... I'm aware that we're not world-beaters at this point but, if teams start to consistently play their worst against us, someone's going to have to have a think about whether perhaps part of the play is that we put them off a bit? :D

This is for you Bell.

Tony why did you take off Bingham he was a good outlet. The game did settle down after Rose came on but we had nothing but kick it away and wait for them to come again.

Really needed some experience to hold on then.

Sorry folks, but Im pissed. 3 zip up at halftime and we don't get the win..... disappointed to say the least. 30% possession is abysmal!! For a team playing counter football with only 30% possession, you'd better know how to defend properly, and this is where we failed in the 2nd half.
Credit to the lads for digging in and having an amazing go, but PLEASE teach them how to hold onto the ball instead of just punting it and waiting for the next barrage to come.
If MV were on form in the final 1/3 we would've been crucified much earlier!!

On another note... fark I hate Berisha!!!

We drew down there a few years ago 3-3 didn't we. Quite a few sent off I seem to recall.
although I've had a few beers so I don't recall it all tbh.

We tried not to loose instead of win it.

Austin puts us up 4 and we might have held on. The two possible pens before one they got and we possibly loose.

Hey Shaun next time we sell a game take our own ball boys. The ball was barely out and it was coming back again.

I recommend the kid from NYE who pretty much said get it yourself to the NIX

That was the other game that I was referring to... But the game that didn't happen, was worse ;)
