Like others have said it us hard to take positives from a game we scored first and then let the same player get a hat trick in. I suppose at least we've scored today. I think Wilks should have had a penalty too. We re no worse off than we were Saturday night. And that is about that I do think the lads are putting the effort in its just not working at the moment. We need to do better at corners, that is something that can be worked on surely?
Have you seen the penalty claim on TV? I had a good view from East Stand Upper and it looked like a dive. I’ve not seen any replays of it though.
I didn't think it was a penalty tbh, however, I was saying to the guys next to me that it is one of those that the opposition always seem to get given at Oakwell.
From the back of the ponty it looked a pen. But In fairness, the shirt pulling on corners we should’ve had a few. Late in the first half Chaplin should’ve had a pen for getting dragged down in the box on a corner. But our players don’t seem to appeal they just sit on their arse with harms out. Get into the refs face and make yourself heard.
Anyone else think it was a pen on Schmidt from Jansson? Definitely threw an elbow/arm in his direction and I reckon anywhere else on the pitch, it would’ve been a foul.
I think it's a telling indictment that I'm more concerned about conceding goals from our own corners than we are when the opposition takes a corner
He was "looking for it", got a bit of a tug on the shirt, went down theatrically, if one like that had been given against us there'd have been uproar. Rightly so. Can't go blaming officials today, we had 20mins then thoroughly outplayed. Worrying thing is, heads look to be dropping already.
It was no better watching it in 30degree heat than it was in the cold and rain I’m afraid. (Watched on tv poolside in Cyprus)
Nah Chaplin played for it and went down under not very much pressure. Don’t think the Wilks one was either. The schidmt one was the most likely of the three appeals. Most teams would get 1/3 not us though. As per usual.
When in these situations the team don't play to the whistle either. They stop and watch the opposition clear the ball.
We were 3 points behind Brentford. We could have gone level, but now we're 6 points behind them. I'd say we're worse off.
