Is that a question because they keep on mentioning it? I have them muted.

The played this half hearted free kick and then he decided it was world class and like Beckham crossing to Bruce. I don’t think they even played together!

Decent game. I like the look of our right back.
They are causing us most trouble down our left.

We look physically knackered now, at youth football I don't know why they just don't go the pens after 90 minutes.

Bruce was playing into 96 so I suspect they did. Whether he put in set-pieces for Bruce to score from though..... I thought they were mentioning it all the time so was a flippant question.

Tristan Rowe, he's been excellent over the last few month by all accounts.

Pretty much the only decent cross we have done all match and it is finished like that.

Howling Mad Murdoch in goal for them is decent.

Haven't really tested him though. Most shots have been directly at him. (Although I missed 30-40 mins of the second half so maybe he did pull off some really good saves).

Yep, he should have buried that from the cut back on  the right and another half chance just after as well. We play some good stuff.

That ManU sub will go far. He has already learned how to play the ball one way. then kick his foot out to catch the defender to go down for a freekick/ pen.

My main memories of Clive Allen are scoring a goal at Coventry which didn’t count because the ref didn’t realise it hit the stanchion; when he literally started a riot by scoring for QPR in the FA Cup then running to the other end of the pitch to celebrate in front of the Crystal Papace supporters; and sign on for Arsenal for 1 million and then never playing for them!
