i just sat here for 5 minutes waiting to get a content unavailable in your region sticky which after going 2-1 up to be caught out feels like having most of my teeth pulled out,stuck in an empty sugar packet and shoved up my arse ....nice one boys...another grand bites the dust...ffs.
And what was Duffy up to? Standing around, that's what.
Nobody exactly came out of it covered in glory did they? Egg maybe but no glory.
But the keeper's job in that situation is to SMASH the ball out of harm's way as HARD as possible.
Word.

Baldock's goal looked like a magical finish. What happened there? Skills or deflection?

Two picture goals, two bits of dumb defending.
Duffy can't believe Bruno doesn't just lay it back to him on his right peg to clear & then ball watches.
Bruno makes a piss poor decision placing Stockdale under massive pressure.
Stockdale makes a piss poor decision not to just row z it & give Bruno a bollocking.
As for the second...
We drew with ourselves today.

This.
Strolled through the game, like coming back off a holiday.
Slack defending has cost us.
I know it's individual mistakes that have cost us, but win as a team, lose as one.
Forget today and move on to Tuesday night with an home win

I initially thought Bruno underhit his backpass didn't realise Stockdale spooned it too the Preston player

A load of Bolanos
Great turn and finish from Murray.
I think the players under estimated Preston today and Brentford a few weeks ago. In both games I thought the team looked like they thought they could just turn up and take the 3 points home. Didn't seem 'at it'.

Someone needs to explain to me how Stockdale is supposed to leather the ball into row Z when it comes to him at throat level. This was Bruno's huge cock-up, but then he redeemed himself in the second half with the killer pass to to Sam.

Agree although in hindsight he would have done better trying to head it out for a throw. As someone previously mentioned none of them covered themselves in glory with the goals conceded
The ball was in the air a fair amount of time.
Stockdale chooses to move toward the ball so he can take it on his chest - it doesn't fly at him at chest height.
He chose not to put his boot through it (or head it) away.
Nothing and no one forced him to try and chest it down.
He took a risk to maintain possession and it didn't come off.
