Really good half. United are rattled and losing discipline. Pity half time came when it did in some ways. Just fed up with the United-loving commentary. Sickening. COYS!
1-0 HT. A relatively uneventful half, for the most part, followed by a flurry of activity. Two teams putting in a shift, but more focused on not going behind than taking the lead. We were the better team, despite there not being much in it. They're going to be on the officials now hard. Already are.

Bit of a naff half but I think we’ve just edged it. Getting the goal obviously helps too. Here’s hoping we can go a level up in the second half and not drop back.
Even before the goal I thought we were doing quite well. By that I mean, we were competitive rather than getting bossed. It was still dull, and was after the goal too with the main excitement coming from United players getting all aggy. If there's a game where dull is acceptable though it's ones against the big sides and United are 2nd. Get Lamela on in the second half and really boil some piss.
I thought we looked good and purposeful. Apart from their disallowed goal United have done little and the ref has been good IMO.
Whacking someone in the face isn't a foul, according to the pundits on SkyMUTV. ****ing idiots. I'd love to hear what they said about Lamela against the filth. It's clearly deliberate. He's not just running. They're ****ing morons.
Not getting carried away here - we all know that VAR will be back to redress the balance after that awful decision in the first half.
You can't even axe someone's legs off any more. What's the game coming to? Some cliched bollocks about men.
Only started watching after the break. Can i assume we were inviting this much pressure in the first half too?
