I have been very critical of Tavares in the past but I’d give him a new deal. I think he’s earned it with his cameos this year imo.

He did. He was very solid. I would play him against Hull.Thought Binks did well when he came on too btw
Exactly. I’m sure I’ll look back on today fondly but it’s always going to sting knowing we were a toe, a crossbar, a penalty or two away from winning. Same as we were last year.True.
But I absolutely hate being the ‘plucky loser’.
Looked better than Kitching, thought he was poorThought Binks did well when he came on too btw
Seeing us lose on penalties like that at the same end, two years on the spin, is a bit much. Kind of feels like the big cheese is a Lesta fan.Sick to the stomach.. again. It’s so fuckinghard to take. BUT;
What a fucking amazing club this is. And it’s MY club… it’s OUR club.
We all need to remember that when we’re squabbling about pettyshit on this forum. We ALL are in this together, through the gut wrenching agony to ecstasy beyond words. We’ve been through years of seemingly endless shit but we finally now have real hope for the future.
Get Mrs Evo to kiss it betterGot my lip split open by wandering arms during the elation of the 4th goal ... that wasn't given
So basically a split lip for fuck all
Ultimately last year a lot more was at stake, especially as this season the league is finally deducting points for FFP sanctions. But today I’ve experienced the best feeling in football and some prat in a studio has taken it away.Funnily enough (wrong phrase, I know).. I thought about you shortly after the winning penalty. How you (and everyone must be feeling (again). The game was so fucking emotionally draining (again) for so long.. then for it to end like that (again), is fucking heartbreaking.
This hurts more than last year and I don't know why ..Ultimately last year a lot more was at stake, especially as this season the league is finally deducting points for FFP sanctions. But today I’ve experienced the best feeling in football and some prat in a studio has taken it away.
Like so many kids I have taught would say, ‘it’s not fair, sir’.
Up until last season, any time Mrs BSB would come away disappointed or gutted after a game I could say I’d seen it many times before… but I’d never seen us lose at Wembley on penalties or have a winning goal incorrectly chalked off by VAR.This hurts more than last year and I don't know why ..
What I will say now is this , there isn't a lot that we as fans haven't been through now .. lost a playoff final on pens , fa cup semi on pens , went to the bottom of the pyramid etc .
We're a pretty headstrong bunch
Van Ewijk was outstanding throughout the match even the first half. I thought only he and Eccles looked good in that half.When we looked at our worst in the first half, MVE never faltered or looked overwhelmed and was all class, despite probably having the most work to do first half.
Simms looked every bit a premier league level striker, and was unlucky not score a couple more today (hit the bar, Dalot clearance etc.,). Whether he could be consistent at that level, who knows? But he’s definitely got the ability.

It might get them scouted but to earn transfers they need to do it against Championship clubs every week as opposed to one off games against PL oppositionWouldn’t be surprised in the slightest if that game got Sheaf and MVE summer transfers. Both immense. Milan went up against Rashford, Antony and Amad Diallo and didn’t lose a single duel.
I feel the opposite.This hurts more than last year and I don't know why ..

Irrelevant really, would have been an extra £1.5-2 million in the bank. As for our players, they must try to find a way to achieve this consistently in the league.I feel the opposite.
Today we showed we can live with a top 7 Premier League team and indeed deserved to win. Some of our players again showed they are capable at that level. Some incredible performances today, not all from players we would have expected.
Although of course we wanted to get to the final I did fear what Man City might do to us. A final like that one they had with Watford wouldn't have been fun.
I have always said, it should be a look of 20-30 seconds max. If they can't find a definitive, clear cut answer there, they go back to the on-field decision.
I am not creating ambiguity. I am saying it simply cannot be allowed to go to such miniscule levels. It makes the game a joke.
Because if you are going to go to those levels, why not take it even further still. See the microsecond a ball leaves a foot and zoom in until you can see each individual blade of grass.
No-one can say that was a clear and obvious error today.
I would also disagree to a degree, on the other point. It used to take ages to come to a decision and all the managers complained and it then became quicker on the whole
Who got Man of the Match on TV? Must have been MVE or Sheaf?We were phenomenal for the final 60 minutes of the game. The best hour of football I can remember from a City side. That performance may have just lost us Sheaf in the summer, he was exceptional with the ball. Van Ewijk’s best game for us, he was probably our man of the match but I think all of the players who played that last hour can hold their heads high.
Agreed. It’s one thing over performing in a one off game, and another doing that over 46 games in the league.Irrelevant really, would have been an extra £1.5-2 million in the bank. As for our players, they must try to find a way to achieve this consistently in the league.
If they can play close to that final hour of football in every game next season they’ll all be top flight players by the end.Agreed. It’s one thing over performing in a one off game, and another doing that over 46 games in the league.
In the two other games we went 3-0 down, PNE and Birmingham, we looked bad.
I don’t want to focus on the negatives because the team gave a good account of themselves from start to finish. Even at 3-0 down, we weren’t playing badly at all. Unlucky to lose but I had one of my best days as a Cov fan today.
