    Don't really know where to start with that game.

    At the end of the day our modus operandi is to come out of the blocks and start quickly, which we did. But then we were totally stopped in our tracks by a frankly ludicrous decision when John 'Yashin' Brayford pulled off a worldie save only to go completely unpunished.

    1-0 up and against 10 men, or even 0-0 (missed pen due to lack of practice) against 10 men and the game is totally different.

    It just beggars belief that the ref (it must have been obvious to at least one lino and the fourth official too) did not award that. It was too blatant to be incompetence too.

    That's 732 days without a penalty away from home in the league now. Somewhere in the Far East there is a very happy betting syndicate laundering money for the Refs' Pension Fund.

    The thing I don't get about our fans though is that we're all ready to moan about it on here but we give the guy such an easy ride at the ground. He should have been getting 100% pelters and cheat chants for 80 minutes solid and yet nobody really batted an eyelid. Seems it matters more to most to sing embarrassing twaddle about folk not standing up rather than to get stuck into the game in a way that might help the lads.

    People blaming pitch and ref? Get a grip

    Yeah the ref didn't give the clear pen and handball. But he didn't play defence for us and switch off.

    Were both playing on same pitch it's a small pitch but nowt wrong with it in terms of condition.

    Harsh is that. We are getting found out a bit though. Today was very 1990s Wimbledon when we are better when we play it on the floor. We are too predictable when we get a throw deep in our opponents half, as 100% of the time we let Bobby Thomas launch it long when we never ever look like scoring from it. Cole had a huge off day, but wasn't alone. Our subs were ever worse, especially Luke Thomas who gave the ball away so many times.

    I’m still furious about that penalty incident.

    2 bottles of wine deep, now on spiced rum and ice and moaning to my Blackburn supporting wife about it out of the blue like some kinda BFC Tourette’s.

    Our goalie for their first goal. Jordan and Mads for giving their striker a route to a finish for goal 2.

    Pitch and kit made no difference.

    OK it was probably a pen. If we're good enough we live with that and beat them anyway. We didn't.

    We did try hard and put the effort in though.

    I was sat at Ewood park with my Blackburn supporting wife, chunterring about it most of the game, having seen the clip on Twitter.

    Absolutely diabolical refereeing
