BBC up with the facts again


And there is the equaliser! It had been coming. Defender Luke McCullough goes on a slaloming run through the heart of the Everton defence and lays it off to Nathan Tyson. His first effort is parried but he reacts quickly to stab home.

Crouch was clearly offside by a few inches.

I am sat bang on the 6 yard line, well from my viewpoint - Crouch was a good foot or two past the defender.  Even when you see the replay it looks like he is ahead of the defender when the cross comes in.

I will need a proper look later to see if another defender played him on?

Played very well today regardless of the opposition.  Could easily have got an equaliser and perhaps Butler should have.

I have to say that Main did well on the time he was on
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Stoke
Post by: Bristol Red Rover on January 09, 2016, 05:04:01 pm
Good point about Main. He looked more focused than I've seen him for ages. Will definitely need him through the rest of the season.
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Stoke
Post by: PDX_Rover on January 09, 2016, 05:15:07 pm
Agree. Keegan started to get a little sloppy the 5 mins before he went off, but he was very good. Evina was a threat. Hard to pick a MOM though. They all played well. Stuckie a bit lax for the second goal but a great strike by the lad.

We were easily the better team and Stoke were really rattled. Even the commentators here in the states were saying so.

I don't mind losing when we play like that.
