why didn't armstrong take that ?

[nicksig]

Should have given it to Armstrong. We are self-destructing tonight

 

[Nick]

Awful pen, can see this being 4-1

Who took it?

 

[sw88]

A better reader of Armstrongs game would have played a better ball through to him then. Murphy isn't that player.

 

[sw88]

Who took it?

Obrien

 

[CovLis86]

I thought Fleck was the standard penalty taker?

 

[ccfcway]

Job .

 

[stevefloyd]

Murphy is getting shitter by the minute

 

[skybluepm2]

Who took it?

O'Brien.. May as well have told the keeper beforehand where he was going to put it.

I agree re Armstrong. He's our most in form player, albeit without a goal in a couple of games but the boy k ones where the net is and wouldn't have made it S easy for the keeper as Obrien did, I'm sure of that. Then again I could have said the same retrospectively about the 6 or however many we missed last season

Does seem odd given how clinical he has been this season.

 

[mark82]

Let's hope we get some more players in tomorrow. I was so optimistic after the first couple of games but we seem to have used it as an excuse not to bring in more players.

You really think Mowbray followed that train of thought? Don't be so stupid

Not Mowbray, bet the board did!

Not necessarily Mowbray, but maybe he thought we were better than we actually are. Do you think our squad is good enough?

 

[sw88]

66 gone and I think we're out of ideas

 

[sw88]

Their number 2 is lucky to still be on. Two cynical fouls against Murphy, first he got booked for, second he's been let off.

Phillips also got lucky earlier while already on a yellow went one on one with one of their men, both got in a tussle but ref gives nothing to either as both deemed to be as bad as one another.

Another booking for Southend just then

Well, we are playing a team in the bottom4 without a win so far at home. What more do you expect?

 

[stevefloyd]

Referee is dreadful

 

[sw88]

Blatant time wasting but their keeper going out his way to thank his defender for getting the ball for him. No doubt that should have been a yellow. Already had a warning for time wasting with the pen.

 

[skybluepm2]

Referee is so inconsistent. They should be down to 10. Murphy looking like our best hope of creating

 

[sw88]

2-2 straight from a corner

Ricketts gets it

 

[Nick]

Great goal

 

[skybluelee]

Get in!!!!!!!!!

 

[skyblueheaven]

Now concentrate u fuckin school boys.

 

[skybluepm2]

Get in!!!!!!!!

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Both centre backs on the scoresheet. How unusual.

Draw is not what we should be happy with. Need to go for the win.

Remember Peake and Killer doing the same in 91 v Palace!

 

[covmark]

Come on boys!!!

 

[sw88]

Murphy with a low shot corner won

Corner taken short Onrien shoots from distance deflected wide for another

Comes to nothing

Another chance follows up for Myrphy who's switch ed to the right, great long ranger saved brilliantly by the keeper

 

[armybike]

Tonight's attendance: 12,967

 

[sw88]

12967 attendance

Good stuff!

 

[Grendel]

Murphy will get predictably poor ratings but his impact in the game had been vastly superior to Armstrongs
