v Stoke City (a) - 10/3/23

[Cherry Blue]

Pleased with the fight back but........why leave it so late. I've already had a dig about the ref.

Hope that's it at not being focused this season.

Fucking launch it Pickering you clown!

The 2 goals will mask what was otherwise an embarrassing display. 

[BigBar]

Didn't deserve anything simple as.

He scored tho but no comment? 

always willing to criticise any one tho?

Those 2 goals masked the 85 minutes of dross that went before. We got precisely what we deserved - nothing

[Angry_Pirate]

Has there ever been a more incompetent referee/4th official combination in all of world football history?

[neophox]

Almost an mental comeback...we take this into Wednesday....move on.

Just those who deserve it

We started playing roughly 86 minutes too late. Until then we simply didn't fancy it on a cold night in Stoke.

Oh well, on the plus side our GD isn't quite so badly impacted now. Little choice but to move on, and hopefully JDT can work out why we suddenly went back to no-showing an away game against opposition we should be competing with. Leaving it until the 86th minute isn't good enough.

You didn't mention his goal? Funny that. 

He scored, but if he'd been stronger at the other end it'd be 2-2 and we'd have a precious point.

JDT too late to make the changes. Britain for JRC should have been made at half. Same BBD for Dolan.

Yep. Was dreadful but we've had good run. They deserve criticism but can hopefully move on with a win next game.

Only got a sniff because Pearson went off, if he stays in it’s 3-0, best player on the pitch every time I’ve seen him play

Too little, too late.

Buckley getting sent off for bouncing the ball off a Boro player's head. 

[LDRover]

Can't go overboard on aerial monster Gallagher's goal, I'm pretty sure it came off his shoulder

[ben_the_beast]

Oh fuck off referee. The ball was in play for about 90 seconds of that 5 mins added time. Spends his entire time pointing at his watch and blows on 5 minutes. Absolute twat. Its no wonder so many games are such a shit watch when the referees are such spineless fuckheads.

Them taking off Pearson changed things.

This post would have been worthwhile if we'd got it back to 3-3.

[neophox]

Think Gally worked hard all night...Garrett showed some great energy coming on...the rest can do slot better... hopefully Diaz scoring again could be crucial!

BBD should have started from the off... great record v Stoke and his hometown boyhood club ffs 

[Beanie01289]

deserved nothing out of that but if we are awarded the stonewall pen we probably take a point.

Some people will overreact and OTT about today's performance. Its one game but people need to focus on the league position

You have your orders, people!
