My favourite part of today was trying to defend a 1-0 lead for 85 minutes, superb stuff.

As usual, you could quite easily see their equaliser coming, we just start sitting deeper and deeper. And apparently defending is optional these days, an option we're choosing not to take up.
 
Its tough, its the roll of the dice. We've been lucky in the past when decisions have gone for us.

Relying on ref decisions for points because our manager doesn't know what to do and our players have no fight. Says everything

You shouldn't rely on the ref doing his job properly.

Doesn't excuse the performances. But does this ever happen to United, City, Chelsea etc?

No.
 
As do those who want to see RM turn it round.

It's clear we have different views....let's park it there. You have yours, I'll have mine.
I wasn't for a minute doubting that both camps have supporters who feel deeply for the club. My point was simply that it will not mean a fig whether supporters do or do not vocalise or for that matter put in print or online their views and opinions. It's the quality of the players and management that determine matters.
 
What is doubly depressing is that in those last five minutes it was the Barcodes who were peppering us.....you would think we would be chucking the kitchen sink in injury time but divil the bit.

They were surging forward in waves.
 
A number of people saying that Bobby can't legislate for individual errors, if the players were not forced to pass from the back constantly then they wouldn't have happened, simple as that, same for the 2nd against Spurs and countless others. We are going to concede a shitload doing that, and when the attack is limp as a rope it doesn't bode well.

No idea where a win is coming from these days, even at home, as the atmosphere is so hostile (which is fine, fans pay good money to watch millionaires strut about not even trying). I Like Bobby, but this is worse than anything under Moyes, and he keeps coming out saying we played well, very strange.

Not what i said, its human error and happens almost week in week out; refs make mistakes, its part of the game and always will be until in game video replays are used.

And you don't watch Chelsea, United, City every week to know what decisions go for them or against them.

Point us, you play with whats put in fron of you, and thats 11 players. For 90 minutes we were unable to do anything worthwhile to even look like gaining 3 points
 
funny how everyone is picking out Distin for this performance . Did anyone notice his left back partner failed to stop 1 cross coming into our box for 90 mins or the defensive midfield in front of him spent the whole game on his arse. It's a bit tough asking someone to put in 9/10 performances when his cover are putting in 2/10
 
Not sure who you were watching today, but it sure as hell wasn't McGeady.
McGeady supplied the through ball to Coleman which made the goal for Kone plus beat his man and put in a couple of crosses too. I'm not saying I rate him, just we don't have better options.

I see enough mate, and you'd know if someone elbow smashed john terry or pulled down Costa through on goal and got away with it.

Its more down to the team and the manager not giving the ref [Poor language removed] during and after games
