It's just struck me we're actually not a very well organised team with a clear style or fast players. I wonder if this could be impacting our Europe claim.

 

[Papa Shango]

Hadn’t won an away game all season before they played us

True but they are still a decent side obviously.

 

[Rob17896]

Two or three good subs in the 60-65' minute, and I'd bet we're not conceding.

Two or three good first choices would have helped. His sell by is long gone. Moyes peak was years ago and that was just decent.

 

[ValBlue]

Yeah he plays for the RS.

We know its not fair.

We also know we don't get away with it, so don't do it? Give yourself a chance.

This is the problem with our team, our mentality. We have proper little bitch mentality. Instilled by the manager. I’m glad Jack sarcastically clapped at a poor referee. If we had a few more narks willing to leave one their opponent to break the game up or play the game like some of these other teams do, maybe we’d stop being made mugs of regularly by officials and other managers

You was responding to my post directly about it so I assumed that's what you was talking about.

I'm saying the ref has given a shocking red to Keane. Our players are obviously not going to be happy about it so he then needs to control and manage the game. Have a word with Grealish saying anymore and I will send you off. Yet other players from other teams can give the ref loads but zero happens. No consistency at all.

Poor selection, O'brien and Mcneil your right side against bottom off the league , sits there watching that 2nd half and does nothing till 10mins to go.

I voted Keane motm for his goal, defensive contributions and yet another 'only in the life of Michael Vincent Keane' moment. Felt incredibly harsh, but if its gonna happen to anyone, it's Keane.

We allow ourselves to be walked over

 

[Davidoff]

We can't hide behind the officials in this game I'm sorry. We were pathetic from the 1st whistle. Build up was slow, movement was poor, we were crap against one of the worse teams the league has ever seen. I got fed up of Moyes the 1st time round and nothings changed for me. He'll get us mid table we may even scrape into Europe. But he's too pragmatic, too deliberate. His subs are always like for like. He gets out thought by most other managers. He doesn't change games tactically. We've been battered at home by a poor spurs team who couldn't win away, battered by the skunks who couldn't win away and destroyed by Brentford who couldn't win away and now drew with a load of crap.

Players and managers will come and go. But the 'sport' we've all grown up loving is going, maybe it's already gone.

That's more devastating than Michael Keane 'holding' some lids ponytail

The corruption of the league in full stead.

This reminds me of the arse end of 20/21. So many bad performances after the gate was open for a real stab at the top four.

Lose on Saturday - and believe me, we will - and that'll be it. Zilch (but the formality of getting about 8/9 points to make sure) with four and a half months to go....

 

[Davideeyore]

Lack of players is irrelevant when the manager refuses to make subs anyway

No that's wrong. If we had KDH, Gueye, Ndiaye, (Branthwaite), for example, we might be in a better place. We're paying the price for a poor squad.

 

[chrismpw]

A point and two sending off, at home, against the bottom and worst team for years ... could've been worse.

 

[Duncan’s Pigeon Loft]

Another wasted opportunity to move up the table and make a statement of intent. Nothing ever changes.

 

[Tel001]

Violent? Really?

Where did I say violent ?

It’s the rules …. If the guy had short hair like Garner and someone had hold of it going up for a header … it would be a red card yeah? So you’re saying this one shouldn’t because he had long hair?

People whinge about consistency, the ref had no choice when told to go to the monitor .

This match is on Moyes and nobody else
