So much for them helping us out against teams around us Zoko will be out for 3 games now.

Kilcline is a guest today. Runs over to the City fans just before going back inside for the second half

No idea what he is wearing :emoji_open_mouth:

 

[Liquid Gold]

0-0 half time isn’t a bad place to be. JCH and Reid good options on the bench.

Looks like he borrowed an outfit from Slade's Dave Hill.

 

[sw88]

Beat me to it, if Biamou is going mental at the ref can see him coming off.

Anybody see what it was about?

No idea. Guess it was just a build up of frustration over the lack of decisions going our way? Grimmer was furious too but seen sense to do it from a distance

Was complaining to the ref for ages as they walked off the pitch. Ref had enough and booked him and then Biamou sarcastically applauded the decision. Very lucky not to have been given a 2nd yellow.

Nolan will be telling them to wind us up and do stuff like Knee us in the bollocks to get a reaction.

 

[Nick]

JCH is going through a one on one warm up so likely to be coming on.

 

[sw88]

Biamou off for JCH

 

[Nick]

Biamou off for JCH

Worthwhile, Reid on at 65-70 to see if he makes a difference.

 

[Nick]

Doyle hoof from kick off straight out of play, standard.

 

[sw88]

Shit straight at Burge after we shut off

No doubt some(one) will say it was world class

 

[Esoterica]

Biamou off for JCH

Good decision in the context of the game. Game should open up 2nd half and there'll be less need for us to go long. JCH has had his kick up the bum and will play more central, engaging the CBs more.

 

[better days]

Biamou off for JCH

Sensible decision as Nolan would have told their players to get Max sent off
They will find JCH a different proposition - he will be in their face

Dirty bastards

Good shit. Should never have been allowed to get a shit off anyway.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Not much between the teams so far. Notts County not created much despite being the team applying the most pressure. Most of our possession was in our own half but we pieced together a couple of half decent counter attacks. If it was a boxing match I'd say Notts just ahead on points.

It sounds like it is a boxing match

 

[Nick]

Burge comes out and drops but manages to catch it.

 

[sw88]

Ball into the box by bailey, keeper comes for doesn’t initially claim it, McNulty compete and swings a leg but clearly pulls out of the challenge yet keeper still goes down to try and con the ref

Ref does blow up and give them a free kick

 

[Nick]

Their keeper parries it, McNulty swings for a shot but their keeper jumps onto it and gets a kick

Looks more like Noddy Holder than Brian Kilcline

 

[Nick]

JCH gets forward well and a good cross along the floor but cleared for a throw.

 

[sw88]

Late challenge on doyle who rolls round trying to show t was a bad one, ref in the right spot, don’t think he’ll give a red here

 

[Nick]

Doyle gives them their own medicine rolling about, one of their players gts dragged to the floor think it was Grimmer.

JCH getting involved.

It was their 18 who I think was trying it with Biamou all game.

Yellow.

 

[sw88]

ref not using the right rule there telling Doyle to go off after treatment

Forth official let’s him back on

Refs lost it

2 booking for county and 1 for McDonald after all that

 

[Nick]

Amoebi booked too.

Why is Doyle going off?

 

[Nick]

Christ, Ref is on a rampage.

What's McDonald booked for?

 

[Nick]

Should have kept Doyle off, just aimlessly punts it.

 

[Nick]

JCH does a shoulder to shoulder, their player rolls about. Foul given.

Its getting silly. Can see a couple of reds by the end of today.

 

[Esoterica]

Love Doyle, after rolling round like he took an axe to the knee he jogs on and takes a quick free kick

 

[sw88]

18 now on a final warning after ref stops play after a foul on kelly when we could have played on

 

[Nick]

Their player who just fouled Doyle flies in late on Kelly. Ref flaps booking him again.

 

[Nick]

We need to be winding him up, force him into it.

Duffy barely touches JCH, foul to us.

Ref has lost the game.

 

[Nick]

Poor free kick, headed out for our throw.
