    My view.. yes some goals can't be stopped, stop blaming people bla bla but anyway.

    1st - Offside? Flicker thinks it was, have we had this confirmed? On the replay he looks to be in so much space unless TK was playing him on on the other side.

    2nd - The Watford player had fallen over on the edge of the area so really Etuhu should have dealt with it before the cross even comes in. The goal all round is a little fluky, Wisey gets something on it but it falls just in play and catches Kennedy out. Nevertheless, Kennedy just wasn't with his man and it happens time and again - costing us goals or at least goal-scoring opportunities to the opposition.

    3rd - I think most are blaming Wisey but I don't really. Sure he could do better but he was completely exposed and we're talking centimetres here + Anya is a very talented player - I'm not sure anyone else in our squad could have done any better. Ramage for me at fault for this one mainly. You've always got assume the worst, you've always got to expect the ball to come in and he doesn't stick with his man. Again it's difficult, they're good players with good movement but I haven't seen anything from Ramage as of yet to convince me he's any better than what we already had in house.

    4th - Replay doesn't show it but I distinctly remember Perkins losing it in midfield as others have alluded to. He doesn't recover quick enough but it's a great strike in fairness.

    5th - Perkins tells Wisey to run away from the play and mark someone in the middle. Everyone in the ground could see this was the wrong call as Perkins was never catching Anya. Wisey should have used initiative though and just come across - yes he would have left Jim with two in the middle but he was going to score anyway so you've got to take your chances there imo and act. Although when you've got senior player telling you to run the other way I can imagine that being very difficult. As much Perkins' fault as it was Wisey's.

    What have I learnt? Not much, they have some good players and we're not very good at defending. Let's move on to the next game and hope for better. I would say it's concentration that needs working on.

    Best piece of advice anyone ever gave me was to think about what I was doing and not how I was doing. I passed my driving test the day after as well :)
