Getting kicked up in the air

[Guinness Boy]

Something that was very noticeable against Forest at home was the cynical way in which they took turns to kick our team, particularly KLL (who later tweeted a particularly unpleasant picture of the resulting injuries on his leg). Something that was mentioned over and over again on the official match thread was that Conway had been repeatedly kicked and a Yeovil player was very lucky not to get sent off.

In the absence of Ulloa (and with many other players out) are managers targeting us deliberatly knowing that we've no real threat from set pieces? Or does this happen to other sides? I think, conversely, we have actually been less cynical this season than under Poyet.

As a team we're not cynical enough. We give away silly fouls, but opposing teams get away with dirt tricks against us because we're a little naive. Buckley is the best example of this... He gets fouled, but sometimes gets nothing, however when he try's to give it back, it's obvious, and he concedes a free kick. This is an area where we have to get cuter

It's as though we aren't streetwise enough..,yep Conway was kicked often and the ref lacked any common sense

Agree with this. Ref was pretty poor: he wasn't going to book Ince until he succumbed to pressure from Yeovil players and bottled the second yellow for their number 14. No excuses though - they have got to cope with this.
