He had?
He had?Hadn't realised CC hadn't scored for us in the league prior to last night. Got to get of the mark, hopefully he will do a McNulty as the season proceeds. Yes we are level on points with several teams behind us, all of whom have games in hand, but if you had said to me in the summer that we'd be in the playoffs towards the end of November I'd have taken that for sure.
Thought so too...but BBC report on the game said it was his first!He had?

Last night the BBC match report claimed it was his first. Just had a look back and they have corrected it.he's scored 4.
What was going on with the ball last night? Ref must have made the change it 3 or 4 times.
I thought we played really well in both halves. Agree that Hiwula didn’t do much but I felt all of the others mentioned had lively games. Some of the football we played last night was excellent. Another game in the long list of games this season that goes in the should have won category.Poor half. Yes they are good team and have a good away record but too many are Having poor games - Doyle, Hiwula, Chaplin, JCH, grimmer and bayliss have all been poor

He's playing deep to accommodate Bayliss who is accommodating Doyle, otherwise the central midfield is miles away from the strikers
One of other problem we've got is an abundance of left footed players
BBC report on the Man U v Palace game:he's scored 4.
BBC report on the Man U v Palace game:
"But Palace, without a win in their previous seven league games and just above the relegation zone, created several chances to secure a first league win at the venue since 1989." This in paragraph 4 of a match report of a 0-0 draw, the first sentence of which reads: "Manchester United suffered more frustration as they were held to a goalless draw by a spirited Crystal Palace".

Palace didn't win, it was a draw. "...to secure..." reads in the above context as if they actually won.There is nothing actually wrong with that statement is there?
Palace didn't win, it was a draw.
I get you could read it along the lines of "Palace had chances" but to me it very clearly reads that Palace won.read it again.

on cwr sport tonight 5-6pm Clive said " Here's what Wasps' manager, Mark Robins, had to say. " .
...bloody hell.
We weren’tSerious question - why does anyone make the effort to go to a game and then leave with 5 minutes left when we're just one goal down? Never understood it.

How did we do on your planetI get you could read it along the lines of "Palace had chances" but to me it very clearly reads that Palace won.
And after seeing pictures, I'm not sure they even had the 11k they stated tbf.Good to read that our crowd was bigger than the Wasps this weekend.
We weren’t
We were. Assuming you're being pedantic as they scored in the 90th minute, the 5 minutes additional time went up immediately after they scored, so minimum of 5 minutes left. Even before the board went up, it was obvious there would be somewhere between 4-6 minutes additional time (at least 2 minutes were guaranteed for the 4 substitutions and Jones was down for a couple of minutes). There was plenty of time left to win it, let alone draw it.We weren’t

Still don't understand the reason to leave early.

If i hadn't flounced out when they scored how do you know we'd have equalised as all of the particles in the universe would have aligned differently if I stayed in my seat.
In fact, stick me down for an assist.
We should really have won it. They would have missed Bayliss with an amazing turn and then instead of laying in one of 2 strikers up with him he had the weakest shot of the game.
Your fault we missed it then.I saw that, he probably would have scored if I hadn't ran back in from the toilets, oh bollocks!!
Agreed, and I think they then had a corner in the 94th minute so could have nicked it. Proves the point - a lot can happen in 5 minutes.We should really have won it.

They updated the story later yesterday evening so it was written more clearly.How did we do on your planet

Fair play! you restrained and pinned him down in a very pro manner, (ex military or Marshall arts?)
I will be honest I thought he was going to nut you when you let him back up. Was the girl that was crying with him?
Stewards took an age (felt sorry for the female steward in the green coat!)and about 4/5 couldn’t seem to shift him! Heard him say he’d have you outside!
Absolute Idiot the other guy, but fair play you handled yourself and the situation very well!
Sounds like you conducted yourself well Earlsdon. Was it you (and a couple of mates) who spotted the offender opposite Block 14, being held by a couple of police at the end of the game and jogged over towards him? Was walking parallel to you at the timeWell, I'm very flattered, but I think less professional and more 'just Cov innit'.
I thought he was going to nut me too but I gave my gloves to a mate just in case I did have to take things to another level. Personally I think it was a lot easier to pick on the dads and grandads around so when he had someone putting him in his place he wasn't so up for it.
The little girl got separated from her dad but this was a good 5 minutes after it all started kicking off. I don't really blame the female steward, but her generally support was appalling. I'm still quite angry about it actually!

I think the expression is lunch time
