I have just read through these threads and it has proved to me just how misleading TV coverage can be. Sure we weren't brilliant out there but Fenton had a bloody good game. Yes, he should have nailed the header and even the shot but he is a right back. What he was doing away from the play was good and he kept their striker in check and was enjoying a lot of space because wsw didn't have a midfielder out there.
Their new left back was bloody good. Manny was getting skinned in the first half and sorted it in the second. The midfield did well. Being at the games one gets to see the whole picture and what players do off the ball and away from the main play. We kept our shape. Siggy and Durante had good games and dealt with most of it nicely. Moss only had to pull off two class saves. One from point blank. Krishna coming on was good. Burns saw Krishna was causing them problems and was giving Krishna every chance. The goal was supurb and the penalty was harsh.
The referee was decent, he let it flow as much as he could. The lino on the aisle 12 side of the field fucked it up 3 or so times, it was not the refs fault.
we now have 9 points, 6 more than the team two places below us. This really could be a decent season. I feel for Fenton though. He had a decent game and this injury was undeserved.
Fever zone was in goof form and so too was the fever bar. I even got the barman, i asked for the cider I saw there and asked him if it was better than a Dickens. He didnt even twig to it. Tee hee
