What was rufer  doing?!? That ball to Davila was never on. Left us completely exposed at the back and well, a wonderstrike from Maclaren. Still, glad the cheating frenchie didn’t get a reward.

Harsh. Two Nix players couldn't dispossess Metcalfe, and then Mclaren was one on one in the box.

The only way we can get anything from this is to score more goals.

lol- yeh Davila may pass to him less in the second half. That was a good attack squandered.

I just answered a factual question with no pejorative comment, so I wasn't being very harsh.

Rufer off for Devlin and Sotirio off for Waine at half time thank you

Also very disappointing to concede from yet another set piece especially when it is your starting CB that gets bested... I can understand if a Devlin or Reno or Davila get beaten like that, but not Payne! 

I'd like to see another angle of that goal. Was Good manhandling Payne, like Duke did in that WSW game? VAR did apparently have a look.

Maybe some justice with pen not given against Mcgarry.

But in reality across the park, City are a class above. City Group doss, does make a difference.

At this stage we are still in it although to be fair we are lucky not to be 3 or 4 behind.

Take off Rufer, bring on Devlin. The kid has been disappointing. Don't think a single forward pass had even reached its target. JUST BECAUSE HE IS VICE-CAPTAIN DOESN'T MEAN HE ALWAYS HAS TO START!

I hope so. Scores the odd goal but generally contributes nothing. Not even as fast as claimed. He should have been chasing the balls that Hemed went after in his slow way. Hemed is a scorer but he's getting crap service.

"When on attack, pass it back" seems to be the motto, or just give the ball away.

McGarry got one more gear? A little more from him, and a little more from Lewis, and Laws and Rufer hang on and we've got a shot here. We got back into this when he shrugged Atkinson off.

McGarry, Fenton, Rufer, Sotorio all disappointing first halfs.

Are Devlin and Waine fit. If so they surely should come on for Rufer/Sotorio.

Lewis & Rufer both tried to challenge Metcalfe and failed in lead up to second goal, I reckon if Devlin was playing for either one of them, we would've won that ball back.

 Sorry but Laws is pants and Rufer is having a bad hair day, Hope Talay screams at him(Rufer) to wake him up a bit and subs off Laws.

Those one eyed Fox clowns are doing my head in again. That penalty shout was so obviously a dive and the only decent ref in the league (probably because he's not Aussie) could see right through it.

Well that was Devlin's sloppy pass. We're just up against it in the midfield.

But Marto, why would he go down when he has beaten his defender (and knocked the ball 30ft away from himself in so doing)?

You can't leave Davila in space at the top like that.
