    We should've won that game 2-0, could've won if 4-0 ...

    ... every player played their heart out, they can't always play fantasy football.

    How awful was the commentary btw. Not necessary biased just shockingly poor quality, shockingly poor research and just going through the motions.

    Sky saying goal disallowed for hand ball by le fee, that's a disgraceful decision

    The ref was chatting via his earpiece according to the commentators. I think the lino from the opposite side has said something about Isidor being offside for the initial pass and phases of play. Demonstrable nonsense from them.

    Maybe, I'm not really a fan of Roberts tbh - that's a different debate tho lol

    The formation worked tonigbt because we won, I'm just always reflecting on the performance and where do we need to.improve

    Defo poor patch, but even then it was a lot of corners and not many chances. It just felt more pressured after the ‘goal’ controversy I think!:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    nah the ref and linesman told Isidor offside at the final whistle. They then showed with hand signals he was offside then came back on. They got it wrong.

    You're right, it's not corruption or anything, just good old fashioned incompetence.

    Same mate. I fully agree with your points. Can not just use the end result to justify the performance.

    If they 'knew' he was offside then why is nobody flagging for it and the ref giving it and strolling back for kickoff?

    The lino from Derby’s half ran back towards half way as you do if it’s a goal. They’re in damage limitation mode now imo. Clearly said ‘offside’ in the aftermath. Now talking about handball. Wild.

    Take the 3 and move on.

    Refs are ****e.

    Need to make changes earlier or trust the other players to mix the starting 11 up in certain games.
