FA Cup First Round

[Habbinalan]

First time at a match where I've seen so many supporters aware of the official's f*ck ups so quickly through social media and streaming. I remember everyone standing up to see the replays when I was behind the (very open) media area at Goodison Park a few years back. Some seemed to be watching the match on TV rather than on the pitch in front of them.

Haven't had time to watch the game on telly but I hope our advice to the officials, especially the lino, didn't come over as too bitter. We had relatively little to be positive about for the first 80 minutes. Once we got to extra time I was fairly confident especially as Miller had been "removed" (cracking Leon tackle) and we had Will Norris ready to deal with any penalties. Extra time and a goal for Willo made the drive home most enjoyable.

We're both f*cked for saturday and we've also got to go to Notts County on Tuesday.

You seem to be saying there has been no money chucked into your club. You have 200 fans at best. Your true level is Midland Premier.

We're a well run club. You are an awfully run club. Poor mug from you talking bollocks about our crowds

I agree, even tho we took the lead in extra time we never really looked comfortable as we were so under the cosh, and yes though you're boss never mentioned the hand ball I guarantee he would of had you not equalised in injury time, in fact I think it might have been a handball twice, and like you we have a game Tuesday so yes we will both be 'kin knackered.
As for the tackle watched it this morning and it was actually shocking. I just thought it was a foul at the gorund but in slow motion, deray me, whilst he might have got the the merest of touches on the ball, had Miller had any of his legs on the ground, it could have been snapped in two with the almost scissor kick follow through employed.
But good luck for the next round

Essentially, it just felt like Leon had had enough and was taking retribution for the handball combined with the goal celebration. Once he'd got that niggle out of his sytem, on behalf of the team, everything seemed to have a momentum.

It was an appalling tackle (touching the ball was incidental to the intent) but fitting that referee just played on and left little Ricky laid out - almost as if someone had told him about his mistake with the handball.

Good luck in joining Barrow in the play-offs. You're just the style of opposition to provide a decent semi-final - although I suspect you'll struggle to do better than top 10 if Miller goes early in January.
