Reputations sadly do influence even officials. People like FF dive too much leading to them thinking all our players must do it as seen against Blackpool.
Corner by Abdi....clears everyone. Deeney is getting isolated in the box. Mid field not getting up there qickly enough.
Posh defending in numbers around the area, then breaking quickly. Watford breaking too slowly. 3 added mins.
Hogg breaks clear. Keeper saves. Ekstrand pulls Gayle back and is already on a yellow. Lucky to get away with it.
Well as I say reptuations do stick and refs probably hear them as well. I've read we cheat/dive - all the typical stuff on many forums and some Charlton chap said they had a video made up showing it all! Sadly we're not Man U or a top european side (yet..) so could get away with it. What did he say about the foul on Deeney though - Talksport seemed to suggest it was a penalty but also said Ekstrand should have been sent off.
Sister at game advises ekstrand was fouled by Gayle first. Fact he hasn't given us pen prob saved ekstrand though he has to b v careful now. We need more urgency. Feel Hogg gives us more solidity but not enough going forward (cue first goal of season pretty please). Also, love how its only half time and hull fans already gloating.
