old_eastender Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Unlucky, but awful referring aside, we have only ourselves to blame... Semenyo puts it wide from 6 yards and James mishits volley which could have put us 2 up. Very silly challenge by Pring to gift them penalty. Seems King first yellow was for dissent after their pen, well as a seasoned pro he should know better, no doubt about 2nd yellow card. Overall a much more fluid performance without Martin, let's hope we stick to that next match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of the players ran themselves into the ground for the team tonight. On another day, we take the 3 points there.

samo II Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Feel like ******* Cassandra with this one, but whatever - earlier in the season the late goals were a sign we are unprepared and unfocused; nothing has changed.

Didn’t see King go all Charlie Austin at him and if players complaining about pens all got booked, there’d be a lot of games with 8 a side. Pring and King both made bad errors, but thought generally both played well. Scott and James both great and we looked dangerous going forward. Max decent as well. Referee and assistants, extraordinarily shocking: Missed pen (“couldn’t see” is letting the officials off too easily, get in better positions), gave them everything, including handball leading to the winner.

Roadrunner Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Good effort by us, poor refereeing and the sending off cost us the match, and Tanner injury did not help. I know it will upset a lot of you. But either sell him or loan him out to a lower league team and hopefully he will learn how to hit the back of the net. I am talking about Antoine Semenyo. Max to keep his position. If we lose to Millwall then a number of that squad tonight will be gone in January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
