No striker cover/at all. Midfield/wide looked a bit thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Incredibly frustrating result to take. I knew that would happen after not taking our chances. We didn't deserve to lose that, I'm ducking sick of these poo referees. On another note, that bench was so weak and young, nobody could have changed the game. Mel Morris will be delighted though.

Tyler Durden Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I'll still say and get slagged off for it a number of our goals against Brum were totally gifted to us and 4-0 wasn't a reflective score. Where we then deluded ourselves was thinking that other teams would then show the same amount of generosity and the end result was this evening. If you're relying on teams giving you free goals all the time then you've got serious issues which our league position is a testament to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rambalin Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 So the fourth official said it was a penalty straight away according to Rooney.... About sums up the state of officiating in the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Ram Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 As ever, disappointed with the officiating in this league. VAR may well be crap but I’d take it over the refs we see most weeks, it’s so volatile. Feels like half ref scared and the other half make it all about them. In my opinion, the ref gives that penalty if a) we’re down by more than a goal so it doesn’t affect the final result b) it’s not in the final minute c) it wasn’t on sky I leave most games with the feeling that half of these officials just want to make it through every game staying below the radar of social media and the press. Keep your head down, don’t make any big calls and move on to the next game. Don’t become the next Atwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute shocker of a goal to give away, if Roos doesn't get his chance in between the sticks now he never will, Marshall just doesn't command his area enough and if he is Scotlands number 1 in the Euros they will be coming home early. I didn't see the game but has Marshall really gone from the best keeper since....I don't know when, to being so poor he should be dropped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I don't understand the post, who is relying on getting free goals ? We created enough clear chances to win 2 games, what we lacked was a player with the quality to take them. Had we not created the chances I may, just may understand where you were coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People moan about VAR, but this is why it's needed, it does much more good than bad. What did he think he Stopped the cross and put it out for a corner with?

strawhillram Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Might have been better to have played it tighter at the start, and not exhausted ourselves. A draw would have been a decent result against a team below us and on a bit of a revival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats my point that you've overlooked. Some of the goals we scored against Brum were totally gifted to us, when we've had to actually produce some skill or composure in front of goal ourself we've been sadly lacking.

You could see that Shinnie thought this game did not matter when he should have buried that finish early on. Then Colin was still dreaming of his goal vs Brum when hitting the bar. Siebly was still digesting his Brum celebration Balti when he slipped whilst shooting. And Bielik was still disappointed that the Back-to-backs tour was closed, which made him shoot wide. You could tell the players weren't bothered about this game when they chased everything for 30 mins and had about 5 great chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight was having more of the ball and not a lot of ideas on what to do with it! We had over 65% possession, 13 chances and 7 corners compared to their none. Our play in the final third was poor, no doubt about it, but for me we definitely dominated the game. All about opinions though ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
