    Typically chaotic from us but better second half till the last 15 minutes or so .

    Irankunda wasn’t happy about getting taken off as we saw but TBF Vata replaced him well .

    Poor defensive play for their goals unfortunately.

    We seemed to stop en masse and just watch what was happening for their equaliser.

    Was Vata more able than Irankunda? Is he quicker? Does he read play better? I don’t think so.
    What I saw was our biggest threat being taken off as well as having his nose unnecessarily put out of joint. Baah came on too late. I’d love to see an Irankunda—Kjerrumgaard—Baah front three in a 4-3-3.

    First rule of football: Play to the whistle.
    Second rule: If in doubt, kick it out.

    Now, I know football has moved on a bit, but, bloody hell lads, it's the basics!!!

    What the officials missed was that as both sets of players stopped because no one knew who the red would give a free kick to the little toe rag on his backside passed the ball to the player behind him WITH HIS HAND which caught Watford out because there was no way he could have passed that legally

    BUT Watford should have still prevented the goal after that, as stated before play to the whistle and or clear the lines
