Better offering from Sky tonight.

Sickening as it is it’s a fair result. We 100% got away with the one on Anderson. In no way is that a foul.

They got away with their number 3 not being sent off, on a yellow and takes Molly out, its a second yellow all day long

No way a foul on Anderson, should have gone 2-1 down.
-
Id be raging if we had a goal disallowed like theirs.
-
Walsall manager said 4th official told him he told ref it was a foul on Anderson
-
Their strikers bossed Wood and Anderson all night strength wise. Tough night for the pair
-
I thought Wood was dreadful last night. So slow and often out of position with no chance of recovering it. Look at his involvement in both of their goals.
-
It's a big downgrade on the Division's best CB for sure.
-
Wood needs to be put out to pasture. I’m afraid his days are number. No pace and out of position far too often. If we extend his deal it will be a huge mistake
-
Someone mentioned that it was almost exactly a year ago that we beat Wrexham 1-0 at home. Olowu was immense in that game, a coming of age performance. Wood’s last night was sadly more looking his age - feels like time has caught up with him.
-
Strange how we all see things differently, I thought both centre halves did ok as the game wore, their strikers had strength & physicality, & although Anderson struggled to cope with the threat early on, thought Anderson & Wood out battled them.
-
I'm the same. I thought both Wood and Anderson were good. For a fight and a war against two centre forwards, they wouldn't be far off the two I'd have picked. Having said that was sat next to Andy Butler and Chris Morgan..... wouldn't have minded them two either.

Not a chance it was even a foul never mind a second yellow

You have fallen into the trap of there is not enough in it, He extended his left arm to push Anderson over, pushing and shoving are direct free kicks or a penalty. it was the correct decision under the laws of the game, and are not applied enough by referees, and is becoming accepted by people like you because they are getting away with it.
A fair shoulder charge is shoulder to shoulder with no arm extension shoving. If that had happened to any goalkeeper he would have at least been booked and nothing said.
Nowhere in the laws of the game does it say it has to be a little shove or a big shove.
-
I’ll have to look again as it looked like a “fair charge”’ to me at first. Don’t forget, for a fair (shoulder) charge to be legal, the ball must be within playing distance too..
-
Fot mob gave Anderson man of match with 8.2 out of 10 and woods was given 7.7

Also agree, I thought they stood up well, particularly Anderson. The disappointment for me was when I thought Wood got fouled in the lead up to their equaliser when their forward barged into Wood, not even looking at the ball, to knock him off balance so he couldn't head cleanly. (Conveniently missed on the highlights). They picked up the second ball, crossed but then Wood allowed his man to get wrong side to get the shot in which they scored from the follow up.
Once again, fine margins decode these games and unfortunately too often we've been the wrong side of that line.

Andy Butler, yes.
But Chris Morgan was a bully and a thug, no thanks.

Didn’t think the centre halves were bad. Anderson was very good but that was never a foul.
Felt they did let themselves down at the end though. From a straight long ball they were 2v2 then it’s a scrappy goal from that. Woods was more interested in wrestling than looking at the ball which didn’t help. At that time two experienced centre halves should have had plenty of cover on.
Where we struggled again was midfield. Maybe it’s the defence been slow so unwilling to push up but we seem very open for a tea playing 3 midfielders. Bailey is great but it seems to me he spends a lot of him time fairly wide on the right. And then Sbarra plays as an outright 10 so Broadbent is on his own so often. If we want to play a 10 then for me Bailey needs to stay more central.
Think we’d be best having Kelly playing the left side of a 3 with Broadbent and Bailey. It would give us some balance like we had last season. Looks a bit lopsided to me
-
This shoving over wants stopping, we had a player on loan put out of the game shoved into the wall with the ball nowhere near him last season at Bradford and a player in non league at Darlington on loan Adndreucci was shoved over and season over with a broken collar bone, in both instances the ball was out of play and its just thuggery.
Same with the stiff arm across a player head high, you get sent off at rugby league for that, has someone to lose the sight in an eye before anything is done?
