You’d think he’d be ok with the cold, and it’s not even cold here.

Guess he didnt understand the PPE-memo

 

[Drico]

A win is a win is a win. I am very pleased with that, pleasantly surprised even. I can't get upset with the lack of a "perfomance" simply because I don't think we're up to much anyway. People disappointed with that have inflated expectations of these players. They're just not all that. Until Carlo can get a big majority of his own men in the team, we will always be making do. A win is a win.

 

[Lob]

Well that was a tough watch but considering our very poor home form and that we were again poor today, have to put that down as a massive 3 points gained and it puts us right back in the mix for Europe especially with our game in hand.

Be glad to get James and Davies back in for the next match. Missed them badly.

Well done, job done blues.

 

[tadpole]

Job done

 

[blue61]

Phew!

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Doucoure is one awful player.

Wassup lad? Did you catch him fingering your bird?

 

[charlie atkins]

If we were a cat I think we lost 8 lives there. Thank god they couldn't finish

 

[Pabbers]

Which is how it should be

Damn right mate, want all our players unhappy when not on the pitch.

and i say same to my son.

his coaches say they can never win...take him off if they think he is hurt or needs a rest and get a dirty look and mouth-full from him. Lol

 

[banno]

Valuable 3 points but that was utter turd. Happy for the points but displays like that are not a sign of a team fighting for Europe

 

[GT77]

DCL was immense, everything good goes through him

 

[Steve EFC]

Pickford, again, giving me a heart attack

He actually did well getting to it...desperate measures were required

 

[Glasshalffull]

Oh no, it was 5.

Silly me.

To be fair, you should know by now to at least double the official amount of injury time when we're winning. Take 30% off when we're pushing for an equalise, obviously.

 

[Sharpies volley]

I'd like to say. We controlled the game and it was good game management. But this was as bad as Fulham, Newcastle and West Ham and these were awful. But 3 points is 3 points so made up with the win.

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

EH?? skipped past regularly, barely found a blue shirt with the ball. Only Holgate has been worse IMO.

What? I counted atleast ten occasions where he broke up play with a tackle or interception and set up a surge forward

 

[BlueToff]

Anyway, ground it out but feel that’s a worrying bit of negative management from Carlo.

The game was there to be put to bed with a positive change. Yet he waited too long and that invited them on.

anyway, important win, onto The next
