Time to replace Martinez.

Let them gloat, it will be all the sweeter when they miss out again. Martinez should have gone the punch but i still believe if Onana was on the pitch they wouldn't have scored, we are definately undersized when it comes to defending corners. The positive for me is that we competed well for half the game, Onana going off caused us massive problems. At least two incoming in January i reckon.

We’ve currently got a squad, when fit that are capable of competing with any team in this league. What a transformation from a few years ago.
If we can add a few this month then who knows what we can achieve? We lost this due to injuries and the fact we’ve had to play 2 away games in a few days to teams around us and who’ve spent massive amounts over years.
The club have justifiably questioned why we have been asked to play the 2 games away in 4 days but as we know, the PL is all about the few. Even so, we are only half way through the season so let’s see where we are after the next 4/5 games. I don’t think we’ll be going anywhere and will remain a threat. These players don’t quit and are a credit to our club.

We were signing the keeper from Lisbon I thought.

I do wonder, if we had scored a goal identical to their first, would it have been allowed?

My exact thoughts at the time. Same for the non-existent second yellow for Merino.

[Percy McCarthy]

Beaten by two refs - the one on Saturday and tonight’s - and the fixture list. We can claw back the gap with these serial bottlers before the end of the season. Not so sure about 115.

Proud of the lads.

A game too far and excactly why PSR is a problem.  Fcuk everyone.

[kippaxvilla2]

However coming through that ridiculous December period beaten only once is quite frankly extraordinary.

[Brend'Watkins]

My take, the ref shitting and clearly obvious booking. That aside, Emi, you can punch the ball away from danger. That’s two in two now.
