Just go home. I feel flat. I feel for the team. 28 seconds into Man City v Newcastle live on telly, a slight touch gets city a penalty. Ours was no softer than that, but I can't help but think Friend **** himself thinking about having to give a red too.
I can't be angry with the team; they tried really hard. I've said for a few weeks now that Pelle doesn't hold the ball up and hasn't done for a long, long time. I've even read people saying he does recently; he doesn't. Not going to batter him though as he does what he can. Overall, we looked very comfortable until we had to create in and around the box. Time to play a fast nippy front three and rather than knock it high and straight if we are clearing out lines, hit in behind the full backs for the road runners to get on to.
We look so solid which is massive credit to Ron, considering Maya looked awful 12 months ago and I feel sorry for young Matty Target; unfortunate error
I'm proud we are 5th in the league having not scored at home for three games and dropping 8 points, but I'll struggle to sleep tonight thinking about the ifs and buts.
I can take all that, but what I can't stomach anymore is the utter inconsistency and abysmal standard of referring. Something has to happen. This wonderful game is going to get ruined.
