    Are my scapegoats today.

    For a useless bunch of ***** we played well today. However, the Miss by lumbering fat **** Potts and god knows what Davies was doing for their equaliser has just about done us. I've ignored my own advice and postedcafter a few beers but good god.

    How bad was Potts's miss? I need to see it again. Looked beyond pitiful to me.

    If Davies doesn't mess up Potts miss is irrelevant

    Couldn’t disagree more about potts.

    Put a right shift in and showed great passion! Should be praised not critised.

    If Potts scores Davies's mess up might be irrelevant.

    Where's your cut off point?

    And had he scored that early in the second half we wouldn’t have kept creating chances. If you want a scapegoat I’ll give you Davies or even Mccarthy but not Potts. He was one of our better players today

    He did.

    He also missed a chance a corpse would have scored.

    Potts' undoubtedly should have scored, didn't make good contact with it. Scapegoating though is harsh, imho Conan. Thought he played well, second half in particular. And in context, was his miss any worse than Moore's when he's collected that cracking pass from Gardner, or Moore's free header from the corner that followed? Moore deserves absolute praise for his performance and the goal he scored, Potts' likewise.

    Potts is a lumbering League Two plodder. A half decent Championship player would have buried that chance. God knows why folk want to defend the useless ****.

    I loved my celebration. Doesn't mean I should be on the pitch.

    Perhaps they've seen a replay of our second goal where he bust a gut to be there to supply a superb finish.

    But to be honest he was quite good all the game. Who else is plodding into the area to help us with numbers up front?

    God knows why people need a scapegoat. Perhaps it helps cover up their own inadequacies.

    We've won three home games in fourteen and a half months. I'm not going to be praising anyone.

    Potts played well today. His miss was a shocker but he made up for it with the goal he scored.

    Excellent run by Potts, dives in to make contact and unfortunately it isn’t enough. 9/10 the contact he makes is enough to get it over the line but not today. What a run and finish for his goal though, phenomenal stuff.
