Bamba tries to man-rape Lambert from behind, shoving him in every orifice he can lay seige to in the most blatant attack since a Michael Barrymore pool party and yet the ref gives the goal. Bet that ref will have free duty free until the day he dies
Sounds pretty bad :/. Going in 2-1 down i really think would have made a massive difference. Not just in goals but tactics, spirit etc.
Poor decision from the ref. But I actually laughed out loud at Lallanas demolition of their right back!
After seeing that goal we can consider ourselves very very unlucky not to get any points today. Nevertheless I'm still pleased with the way our team got back into the game in the 2nd half. I also loved it when Lallana brought the defender to his knees. What a quality player!!
Crazy decision. If that doesn't happen we go in 2-1 down, and judging by the way we battered them in the second, I cant see that they A) deserved the wine and B) will finish in the top few.
Have to agree with your points about some of the refs decisions boys, we were on the end of a couple of shockers last wk at forest, and i know how you must be feeling.All in all a good game tho, you play some great football thats for sure, and on another day you would prob have got all 3 points, im sure it will even itself out over the coming games. I think in general the standard of refs has been very poor up to now this season, so im sure there will be alot more crap decisions to come for all of us. good luck for the rest of the season guys, your away support were a credit to you yesterday............
At 2 nil after 20 minutes, I thought "uh oh" and we were heading for a hammering. To lose and have everyoine praising our style of play and creating 11 on target chances, does soften the blow (a little). It shows that the first 4 games were not a fluke or simply emotion and adrenalin driven, but that we are going to compete in this league. I have no doubt we'll lose a few more games, but after 5 played I am alot more confident than I was at the start of the season
It is annoying when blatent fouls cost you games. Are first 20 minutes was totally shocking and deserved to be 2 down. Better second half and could have easily scored to make it 3-3 or even 3-4. Still annoyed we lost but it was going to happen at some point.Positives to take away from it is we scored 2 away from home and could have easily won the game had we been a bit quicker off the mark and a few decisions had gone our way. Its going to be long old season. Lets pick our selves back up and look forward to the next game. As many have said, Its a marathon not a sprint.
If we had been hammered and looked on the back foot all the time I would be worried. This was one game and far too early in the season to commit suicide over. Yes, we may have a bad decision against us (not seen it, don't know), but we will have more and, hopefully, some in our favour to level it out. Pretty sure the Millwall fans weren't happy with the referee at that match. If this was the play-offs I would be screaming with the rest of you, but we've had a great start to the season and let's look forward to the Swindon game. Imagine if we'd been offered 12/15 points at the beginning of the season!
John Pantsil must have changed his boots at half time because Lallana was one of your quieter players second half. Pantsil was slipping all over the place, bless him.
Did you go to the game? We had had rain in Leicester for nearly two straight days ahead of the game, the pitch was greasy as hell. Ah well, Lallana only beat him once to be fair.
