Well we may be leading at Half-Time, but I'm not too disappointed to be missing the second half given what an "exciting" half that first period was... So on that note
People saying the defender was unlucky for the pen - not for me. He swung a boot at the ball, missed it and caught May. He needed to time his kick better, be more aware of his opponent or both. Poor defending and stonewall pen.
Proper gritty performance so far aside from a couple of lucky scrambles in the box we look soo much more solid and less panick stricken under Jones when dealing with pressure,the odd times we have got the ball down we have looked like creating just the pitch isn't conducive to that style today just hope we compete again and get some better chances.
Ugly scrappy game. Don’t think it’s possible to have a nice game on that surface but irregardless we’ve been poor, probably should have had two pens though
When you’re down nothing goes your way. Feel sorry for FT, but those are always given.
Take note @KingKinsella, Alfie May's closing down won the penalty.
Yes and I have said it’s been unproductive. And it still is till he gets 5/6 that way. But a good start
Just going back to your original comment, if player A swipes a kick at the ball and connects with a player it's a foul. It was the right call.
In regards to your second, Alfie and Daniel's closing has not just won us a penalty here, but in several other games caused mistakes that directly have led to us scoring.

We're winning.
That.....thats it.
0 in 3, then 15 in 15, then 1 in 13, then 5 in 5

Maybe the fact we were totally shite and went 18 games without a win had a teensy weensy impact on those stats, don't you think?
That's not why teams press but ho hum
