Not blaming Lawlor for the goal, other than could he maybe have come for it? But Pearson let the man infornt of him - Big point to make though, it was never a free kick, Middleton made no contact and got a yellow card, seen it back a few times he knows he’s not getting it and goes down.

The free kick on the edge of the area for handball was inside the box too, were not playing well, but the ref has mugged us off here.

Get Duerden on!!

In other news - Hurst scores for Gateshead.

[Thorney]

Luton will be up towards the top end of this league come end of season.

All players are a yard quicker and move the ball very well.

They have also been good in not giving any of our players time or space.

Cannot pick out any single 1 of our players for criticism, we just are not as good as them.

Gotts replaced by Close at half time

Some refs give way to pressure from home fans on this kind of ground when they are so close to the pitch.

As for Lawlor and the goal it seemed to be straight at him and he just does not have quick enough reactions any more; it did look “saveable”.

They fall over a lot, and easily, for big lads.

[PDX_Rover]

This ref is a proper nonce.

Begs the question how he managed to save the penalty then.

Gibson and Olusanya for Middleton and Sharp

Pearson was at fault there, he was ball watching, didn’t check his shoulder and let the goalscorer in front of him for a free header.
Lawlor stood no chance.

We seem to have improved in the second half.

[steve@dcfd]

According to BBC 4 shots yet no saves by keeper
This is our failing we do not score enough and that’s put pressure on our defence. We are finding our level in this league.

[monkeytennis]

BBC says we have zero shots on target after 70 mins is that right? Bloody hell.

[Canadian Rover]

O'lasagna. WTF. He's the new Hiwula.

[Guernsey Exile]

We've played super well this 2nd half but Olusanya isn't the solution up front.

[Jimmydee]

Gibson and Olusanya for Middleton and Sharp


COYR

He’s ordered Bailey to stay up front too

Sure molyneux had 1 . Could be after 70 though

[jmt23]

Molly is in such poor form, I’m not s,Ute he should be getting games with these performances. He does pop up with the odd bit of quality that gives us something, but as my lad has just said “we would be better with TLT on the wing at the moment”

[Canadian Rover]

Luke's still trying and got enough credit in the bank to last a long time

Good job your lad isn’t picking the team then.

[TonySoprano]

Fully hoping to have egg on my face of he scores.
But that olasagne is awful. Offers nothing.

[TonySoprano]

Who actually scouted olasagne and thought he was any good ?

[PDX_Rover]

 Olusanya is showing zero ability. Had the opportunity to play in Hanlan, decides to try for a worldy. Ball ends up in Penzance.

[Padge_DRFC]

About as useful as a lasagne

[Superspy]

He's got a first touch like a professional gong player. Jesus wept.

[dknward2]

Time to try our own youth players because this lot up front are shit

[drfchound]

I think that a tired Billy Sharp is a better option than Olusanya.

Lasagne is lovely. It’s pasta joke at this point.

This referee’s gash. Cluelessness in Ski strawberry yogurt pink.
