You're actually WATCHING it?

Came across it. Bloody hell we were shit second half, or Wolves amazing. Dawson, Cunha and Doyle had a field day.

Hurzeler “We weren’t professional enough”.

I loss in 11 no need to panic. We can bounce back.

 

[Javeaseagull]

I feel sorry for him. It’s like when you get told not to look at something, that thing is the first thing you look at. Or not to smile and then you immediately smile.

I can almost hear him thinking “Don’t f*** this up, don’t f*** this up” and then the inevitable happens…

It's like when I used to play golf. When I had to cross water I would say to myself, don't put it in the water! Of course I did, every f***ing time.

I don't feel sorry for him at all. He's a professional footballer. He f**ked up the simplest of passes. A Sunday League donkey could have found one of our players from that position. We could've gone equal 3rd in the table - think how incredible would that have been! I'm sure when he got home to his stunning luxury house and his beautiful wife tonight and thought about it, he was probably a tad disappointed, but it wouldn't have come close to what the fans are feeling.

 

[Wardy's twin]

Didn’t his game unravel? Repeatedly giving the ball away 30 yards out, trying to be too smart.

He was asked to do too much , his unravelling was still better than what happened after, needed to have some help. All about opinion ...

At 3-1 - we would have been third on goal difference and goals scored, not just equal third.

I thought Ayari and Baleba were a quality combo today, not for the first time.

Others above say Beleba runs out of gas in games this season.

Fortunate to be at a wedding today so couldn’t be at the Amex. End of the day when we struggle to beat bottom division dross and two up with 6 mins to play to draw is a result that shows we are no where near good enough to get a Europe place unless we rapidly sort our shit out. The most depressing thing is we struggle to score against these sides. Today we did and still blew it. So disappointing. At least Evan scored.

Ha. I was assuming we might not have actually scored, but yeah.

And it woulda been the highest we've ever been, if you discount early season placings.

 

[Sorrel]

Can't be the only person who left on the second Albion goal. Now I know what opposition goals sound like when heading away from the ground. The second cheer was obvious. We were saying that Wolves deserved more. Then I guess they got what they deserved.

Hopefully will teach us to be better when ahead. I do think with Dunk there we wouldn't have conceded two (though obviously, I didn't see them!)

 

[Invicta]

Wolves scored from this. Just let that sink in.

If Weiffer can't pass to one of our players in that position, what is he doing on the pitch?

Horrific viewing on MOTD but we've had a lot of worse days. S### happens!

 

[Wardy's twin]

Did he have a yellow card?

He did... Imo I would have preferred we bag the 3 points and not think about the Liverpool games. I would have preferred to have gone a bit more defensive i.e. give midfield a bit extra, taking off Baleba weakened us.

 

[kevo]

At least Evan scored.

Made it worse in a way. Absolutely cracking goal which deserved to be the winner.

 

[One Love]

The elephant in the room is how bad we were in that second half.

5th from top? We looked more like 5th from bottom.

Horrific viewing on MOTD

Can't understand why anyone would want to watch it. Seeing it live was bad enough.

Having had a week of getting up around 4am for work, I laid on the bed soon after the match and fell asleep. I woke up an hour ago and suddenly remembered how we utterly threw away the game, and thought that I was dreaming/having a nightmare.
Jeez....we really did, though.
When did we last squander a 2 - 0 lead in the last few minutes, against anyone....let alone a bottom of the table team?
Credit to Wolves, though...they didn't give up, but by God we need to keep our shit together.

2 points thrown away.

 

[birthofanorange]

2 points thrown away.

Not just thrown away, but gift-wrapped in sparkly paper with a lovely blue and white ribbon for one's friendly dustman to dispose of.
It's times like this that I kinda envy your ability to be asleep during our games.
