That’s a decision worthy of demotion to league 1

Well a semi decent half , great save by Dovin early doors but quite simply we have more quality all over the pitch and have several players that can impact games and score goals ..

Big half PUSB

 

[shepardo01]

Worst decision here for a long time!?

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Lampard saw the reply and laughed his head off at that pen decision.

 

[jto123]

Strange game. I don’t think we’ve been great, but will take the scoreline!

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

What has the ref done there
We talk about luck and fair enough before the first we were poor but that is the most diabolical decision I’ve seen

 

[Skybluedownunder]

Torp looking very rusty

Ouch! Hehe x

Btw, Dovin>>>>>>Johansson

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Happy for the most part but Johansson should be off and we should be 3-0 up.

 

[pusbccfc]

Plenty on here wouldn't have a job Monday morning if they made a mistake like that. Stoke moaning previous but he's gifted them almost everything.

 

[SBT]

Johansson always conspires to have a terrible game against us

 

[covcity4life]

No idea mate, but having Grimes, Eccles, and Sheaf in the last game was a problem. Too defensive.

Rudoni, Torp, Grimes are our best three in my opinion. I wouldn't have Sheaf in unless for injuries. We also have Allen who's probably been a bit hard done by given his performances. Eccles is nowhere near as bad as some make out.

Not a bad problem to have such healthy competition. I'm sure having Lampard as manager is having an effect. World class midfielder to look up to!

I think lampard is gonna expect sheaf to play a more all round game rather than as a defensive midfielder. Will take him a little game time to get it right

I think he will get 20 mins today so be interesting to see how he does as grimes will be the defensive pivot no doubt so sheaf will have to change. He has got forward before so let's see how he does

 

[Shannerz]

That's as shocking a decision as you will ever see. Absolutely stinking.

We've not been brilliant, ball retention hasn't been great, but we should be absolutely out of sight.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Gutted about the penalty. Wanted a Torp hattrick!

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Ouch! Hehe x

Already made amends with another comment saying Torp has redeemed himself.

 

[mmttww]

Torp starting has to be good news.

Best option with Rudoni dropping out.

I mean... I wasn't wrong. I'm so smart.

 

[steve101]

Torp took his goals so well. Grimes has been phenomenal.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Take Torp off, he's way off it

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

2-0 at HT.

 

[Alkhen]

In what dimension is that not a penalty!? after the Palace Millwall game you'd think Refs would have been told to clamp down on keepers coming through players

 

[Evo1883]

By the way I'm so impressed with MVE and SAKA on that right .. absolutely superb

 

[TomRad85]

Honestly not great but should be 3-0 and vs 10 men, on for a huge win.
Stoke not out of it if they get the next one, then the ref can truly suck it.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Get Sakamoto on!

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Slow start to the half but we're firmly in control now . Want to see EMC get in the game a bit more but aside from that it's a solid performance so far

 

[Tommo1993]

This is a game for the ref apologists. I’m waiting.

 

[shmmeee]

Btw, Dovin>>>>>>Johansson

Every time I’ve seen him live he looks like Brad Collins clumsier cousin.

 

[skybluecam]

That’s one of the most shocking decisions I’ve ever seen.

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

Midfield doing it's business.
Left and Right Wing trying to be found out by MR

 

[Tommo1993]

Btw, Dovin>>>>>>Johansson

Don’t, that hurts people’s feeling on here.

 

[Alkhen]

Get Eccles off

Take Torp off, he's way off it

You lads have zero bottle hilarious reaction. We just needed a moment to steady the nerves, big game mentally. We are cruising now.

 

[Diogenes]

Has Johanson got a video of the ref on Epstein island or what?

Insane decision.

 

[shepardo01]

Ref the Pen;
Looked like Simms could have just tapped it in ....
(Can anybody confirm?? - was raging at the ref)
But think he thought it was a nailed on pen too....

 

[Grendel]

Having seen the replay several times it’s not as clear cut

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Bit mad how Lampard and Robins can replay it on there ipads in seconds but we don't have VAR in this division

 

[jordan210]

Every time you see it it’s a pen and a red as no attempt to play the ball
