    Yeah, thinking about it, it doesn't surprise me at all with some of the gaff you read on here. It will be the same people that are then first to call for his head, and refuse to admit they were kissing his backside a week earlier.

    I don't think it's unnatural, he's twisting his body the way most people would, the shot comes at him quite fast from not very far away. That said, it's pretty much identical to one Dewsbury-Hall conceded against Brighton. That's the problem.

    Exactly this. Said it earlier. I think fans are that used to claiming a penalty every time a ball is hammered towards goal, regardless of where it hits the defender. Surely we don't want this situation that has developed where defenders can't...

    None of the penalties that have been given when someone has had the ball blasted at them from a couple of yards should be a penno, including today's. But, as you say, when some are penalties and some are not and PGMOL are pretending that they...

    Oh they did. Some people literally said 20, a huge amount said he would get well into double figures. I remember arguing with someone in the summer who said he was ‘guaranteed’ to get double figures - I pointed that out it was an absurd thing to...

    It wasn’t a sustained and consistent increase in our scoring rate though, the figure is skewed by a few games early on. We only scored 13 in the last 12 games of last season. Basically some people just went hilariously overboard as if they’ve...

    Yeah a couple of weeks ago I was saying I had no issue with 2 keepers etc on the bench ahead of someone like Graham because we were still putting out a balanced bench and there was no scenario you could envisage where that player would ever get...

    He was "fine" today, no worse (or better really)than anybody else. He needs to go though, his cards are marked by some already regardless.

    15th would be absolutely shocking to be honest, that’s lower than we finished on merit in the last 2 seasons. I’m fully aware of what we are and how results work. As I said, I’m not saying it’s a disgrace and heads need to roll, I’m just saying...

    Usually how it works with VAR to be fair, if it had been given on field they probably wouldn’t have overturned it today either.

    Personally I find posts like this a bit weird. We’ve just failed to beat a team who have only taken 1 point from their previous 8 games and are 6 points from safety in 19th, and in doing so failed to score for the 3rd consecutive game. I don’t...

    That’s never a pen for me. It’s nothing like any of the handball decisions against us either, the biggest similarity would be to the Keane one against Sunderland which also wasn’t given.

    I’m not ignoring it? That’s why I said the evidence so far suggests he isn’t even seen as ready to be back up. I’ve never said you’re giving your opinion on his ability and I’m not giving mine, like I’ve said a number of times, I just don’t...

    Why are you so desperate to avoid admitting you thought he’d have got on the pitch by now? It’s a bit weird. I never claimed you said he’d have become a starter, but you said he would have played the first game of the season if fit and when...

    I don't buy that. Hence my previous posts and examples.
