    Foreshadowing of future JM post match interview

    Adam Pope - So Jesse what were you thoughts on the game

    Jesse Marsch - Well we didn't have a good first two Quarters. Once we got to half time and the young men returned to the Locker Room, I told the Backline that they needed to Snap the ball better. We started the 3rd Quarter with more confidence but felt it was time to make an Interchange, so I called a Time Out and brought Joffy on. The turning point was when the referee reviewed the Instant Replay, and determined that we would receive a free penalty kick. With the Two Minute Warning being sounded, the scores tied, we went into Overtime, and Meslier went for the Hail Mary, there was an offence against Tyler Roberts, which allowed Kalvin the opportunity to make a Try Play and Forshaw was able to convert the chance into a point, thus winning the game.​

    Reading about quarterbacks reminded me of:

    On the QB reference, the keeper when in possession of the ball has various options to start the next move (play).
    Play short to a defender, pass to a midfielder or play it long (hoof) to a forward.
    Thus he must make the best decision.
    I just hope come last game of the season we don't have to hear a 'bottom of the ninth' quote.

    But that would make us mid table in the league, which is better than where we are now ;)

    I'm excited to tell you that very few Goal Tenders are as hungry as Meslier, He's not content with just being the MVP on occasion, he's just gotta be the winningest player in the winningest team - EVER!!!!!

    Object of the game is not to lose but we really could do with them 3 points Brentford Newcastle are probably a win away from survival and then it's down to 3 from 5. If we lose today we are right back in it. With Everton the early kick off and Norwich playing Burnley it's a big weekend at the bottom. We could get well away from the bottom 3 or we could be sucked right back in it in the space of 90 minutes. Bit nervous today as this is even more massive now after drawing with the saints. Let's get the job done boys.

    The other thing to note, I think those below us play 2-3 games before we play again, I think Brentford will have played three games before we play Palace
