Fairly sure he only made one debatable decision and had to give the red by the letter of the law, contact is contact. Blame the lawmakers innit.
"9 is a very important number, and its power is often attached to events to achieve an extreme outcome. The number 9 relates to death and rebirth, acting as the gate of movement into a new state of being. It is purposeful regeneration of what has been purified and emboldened by the process of release. And, it is in this state of self-awareness, inner light and true wisdom that we are made ready to begin the work of returning to the place of beginning. Numerology also gives us a a huge clue as to why Dark onto Light value this number so much: The number 9 is the number that carries us into the darkness so that we may find ourselves in the light. This is the number that decrees that change will occur whether it is welcomed with surrender or fought with all of our might. It is from the number nine that we test our strengths and refine our weaknesses as we cross the threshold of our own glory."
Absolutely gutted for Ralph. I watched his post match and he looks just devastated. For such an outstanding man manager to have record defeats not once but twice is just wrong. I'm really concerned for the squad now. By my reckoning we are now missing 11 players. BTW I dont give a **** about the result.
Absolutely: getting outscored 16-2 in our last eight league matches is really bad! As are the five points we have taken in that span. We're also fifteen points clear of the drop though.
The red card was everything, we will never know how Ralph set the team up because we were in survival mode from the very start and that made it so easy for Manure to play without inhibitions. It's just another match gone without adding a point from my view, I just hope we can get the first teamers back soon.
I'm not blaming VAR for Adams disallowed goal or Bednerak's sending off. The problem is the rules suck and are not fit for purpose.
Agreed, but over the course of his time refereeing he’s been shocking, not just to us. I didn’t think anyone could rival Clattenburg for making an effort for the cameras, but he’s proven himself.
LOl my boss wanted to talk to me just now, so I called him as i am off tomorrow. 9-0? Only a touchdown and a bit from a good result....
I knew that when Cortese, Poch and our 'golden generation' all left within 6 months that the club had lost all ambition and we weren't going to be doing anything other than try to survive. Like you said, it's been up and down, but since 2016 it's been mostly down.
Its beyond belief now. I can't remember a similar scenario for any team, ever. I'm sure its happened but wow. We took 3 keepers to ManU FFS, we almost can't field a team now.
