Actually cheered me up. Hear me out - felt for most of this season that I've been sleepwalking through matches. Goals celebrated? Sure but not with massive effort. Been looking for reasons not to go to matches? 100%. Worried about losing interest? Absolutely. But yesterday. Yesterday made me realise I do actually care. Celebrated like a loony when we scored. Hugged 17yo daughter like I've not hugged her in ages. Screamed at the ref (who was clearly dreadful). Got massively wound up by their players antics. Almost lost my voice. Felt emotions at a football game that I was genuinely worried I didn't have anymore. Shows the fire is still burning deep. Turns out the game, and more importantly BFC still have me which is very reassuring. For me a point was the least we deserved. It will come together and turns out I will be there to see it. Even booked boxing day tickets for the 4 of us (slight detour en route to the in-laws in Cornwall) on the back of it. You redzzzzz.............
Was sat there thinking it was starting to feel like one of 'them' games. Turning up when folk expected us not to, big away following, bad ref etc. Was pretty close to being a special one.
I can actually stomach a defeat if we have, at least, given our all. Yesterday was one of them games. Same as Wrexham on Tuesday, we didn’t just roll over and, on both occasions, did not deserve to lose.
Most definitely a game of if's and buts, I didn't think they were owt special whatsoever should have been further infront, could have defended better as I say all fine margins. Thought the ref might aswell have been in a blue shirt he set a precedent early on being card happy and lost it from then on, don't even get me started on Nathan Laird cheating little **** was actually laughing when he rolled back into play and hid his face
Isn't it Ethan not Nathan. I thought he was one of their better players. We seemed to foul him a fair bit in the first half.
Nah he just kept diving and the ref kept falling for it. He was the one who Phillips got his first booking from but then he did the same to one of our players and no booking - can understand the players getting very frustrated on that basis.
