I went to the game yesterday, I thought we played well for about half an hour, got 2 up and I thought we would close the game out from there. Then they got one back and it all went down hill from there.
You can see what the manager is trying to do, playing the same way we played when he had Pienaar, Cahill and Osman behind a main striker and having Baines and Coleman Provide the width. But I don’t think the players we have now have the same quality, particularly in the fullback areas.
I thought the ref was shocking, I thought Delap should have been sent off in the first half, there was a foul on our player (Patterson I think) in the build up to their 2nd goal and even after the second goal Hirst fouled Branthwaite completely off the ball and should have gone.
And he blew the full time whistle just as we were about to take a corner
 
Nah,home crowds wherever only tend to engage in tune with their own teams front foot football,from my experiences they are all generally “morgue like” the rest of the game.

I still think ours is one of the worst out of a bad bunch. It's amazing you can hear Moyes barking out instructions most games when there's 40k people in there.
 


The lack of flagging from linesmen has been a major issue this season across all games. They need to start stepping up and not relying on adjudicating after the fact from VAR.
There was one where I actually thought one of our players committed a foul, the Ipswich player on the floor handled the ball and the ref gave us the free kick. This was right in front of the linesman who didn't react to any of it.
