But it was only because he got the ball that his foot subsequently slipped over it. I don’t think that makes it dangerous. It’s just a by product of making the challenge. The only thing he could have done differently was not get the ball.

Are you fancying a city break in Amsterdam by any chance ? :whistle:

Ridiculous VAR decision. He aimed for the ball, got it and his foot slid over the ball. I am so bored with the crapness of VAR.

Neither MacAllister nor Caicedo were match ready when they were signed. Similarly, we were never going to be paying the £150m that would have been needed to sign match ready equivalent replacements…if they exist…and were happy to sign for us. I just think it’s better to reserve judgement on this...

I agree about Welbeck and Ferguson. And tbf to RDZ he did take the responsibility, which is your point.

Definitely. Even better would be one of the outfield players scoring a first minute hat trick.

That’s the first I’ve heard of causation between possession stats and probability a goalkeeper should make saves. I’m going to suggest there is no such thing.

Steele was clearly not the reason for the defeat. I’m not sure blame would be right for RDZ either. If we back his style of play it encompasses days like today alongside the good days. Everton last year. Villa this year.

Are we out of the Sussex Senior Cup already ? You have really ruined my weekend now.

Which goal should he have saved ?

Terrible result, yes. Refunding fans ? Never. If you can’t risk taking a big defeat don’t go.

I thought the forward moved in front of Steele, which must have been a distraction. I would prefer that was always offside (the old rule) so this seems an example of where rule changes have hung officials out to dry. For the other one surely there are guidelines on what constitutes a phase of...

I was also baffled by those two decisions. They aren’t subjective. What are the rules ? There must be definitions of phases of play (3rd goal) and interfering with goalkeeper’s line of sight (2nd goal).

Gilmour was all right. Not shit anyway.

John McGinn reckons it was always going to be either 6-1 to them or 6-1 to us. He probably has a point.

Fair point. We haven’t replaced Caicedo. Or if we have (Baleba) we need to find a way to get him in the team.

No more threads about us winning the league. That is a f***ing huge positive.

Yep. Those were the 3. All very poor. Absolutely no idea why Steele and Webster should take any flak for today in comparison. Veltman had the worst game I have seen him play.

Absolute shocker. Dunk looked massively out of sorts. Lamptey an improvement on Estupinan but that’s about as positive as I can be. We will continue to ship goals with that defence.
