    It didn’t make any difference, we never tested him and he may as well not been there

    A thread about their keeper without mentioning his time wasting.

    Good question tbf.

    But even if we were forced to replay that game again, we still wouldn’t score

    It wasn't that bad and nothing Roberts wouldn't have done too if we'd been protecting a lead. All keepers do it.

    Why was he allowed to kick the ball out of his hands outside the box, everytime in second half, couldn't see for first half

    He wasn't. He, like most keepers, threw the ball into the air in front of him (while in the box) and took a big step out of the box to kick it as it came down.

    A lot of fans look at where a keeper is when he kicks it and claim hes out of his area vut forget that he actually released it from his hands before he took that final step.

    Sorry but i was level with 18 yard line and he still had it on one hand when stepping out of area, also referees and linespeople not picking up on when a defender throws an attacker on the floor is disgusting, how they get their badges, God only knows. If they want to be football officials they should learn all the rules and play to them

    Should just have a countdown timer for goal kicks then no team would gain any advantage. Don’t kick it in time just turn over possession.

    Shocking Referee today. Clearly affected the result. Should have been 3-0 Cambridge. And I’m being generous in giving us 0.

    He didn't need to waste time, he knew we weren't going to be troubling their lead!

    His time wasting was annoying. That “injury” from picking the ball up from the Kane through ball was borderline embarrassing.

    Not bothered about his yellow kit. Cambridge kit is more gold with black shorts and socks, not all yellow. I’ve watched, on tv, Man City play against Chelsea when they both play in blue so I don’t think a yellow goalkeeper kit makes much difference.

    The question should be, How were we allowed to play without a keeper today?

    The outfield kit was more goldish orange than yellow - certainly a noticeably different colour and shade. There was no way they would be deemed a clash. Even for someone like JW and his colour blindness (is it JW who is colour blind?)
