From our POV in North, bang in the middle, we're pretty sure McNair had his shirt pulled and he was dragged to the ground in the area as the ball was cleared out of the box by Brentford. Was after the Brentford goal. Don't know if anyone saw that on the stream? All round, referee was shocking. I know Woody has gone on about VAR in the aftermath of the game and you'd definitely think there would be reason to review a few things... I'm just not sure that referee would have overturned any of his calls in watching them back, he was that crap. Agree refereeing yesterday was really poor. So many big decisions wrong. Still think a referee should be asked to explain his decisions after a game.. if he admits he got it wrong it stops all of the ifs and buts. Link to post Share on other sites

Woodgate is being set up to fail - wanting 4 more in, then 2, then one more - then has to say he’s happy with the squad. Yet Pulis gets a massive wage and money to spend on players we want out after a year. Maybe even more worrying is the damage it will do to our reputation with selling/PL clubs. They won’t want to be messed about - to have loan deals agreed and pulled at the last minute is bad form and very bad for business. Is SG getting ready to sell? Sell a club with as little debts as possible, try to make it look appealing, you would think so! Link to post Share on other sites

He's quicker than Clayton, has a more forward thinking approach. Better and quicker passer of the ball too. His defensive side has improved since playing at right back too imo. The centre mid should be wing, mcnair and Howson. Also agree with SDS about Coulson. I mentioned on the Luton game that Coulson was getting ripped by Mcmanaman all the time with no support by Fletcher. Was the same yesterday. He's good going forward but defensively got alot to learn yet. I'd be interested to see Bola play a full 90 to see the difference. I honestly think Gibson is winding down now. Unless he has other intentions that we are not aware of. 52 minutes ago, Johnmfc81 said: I think Howson may do well in Claytons position.

Dan1234 1,048 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) Howson for Clayton would be my first change and this is not a Clayton slagging post, I don't mind him as much as some but one thing he doesn't have is mobility. I noticed a lot with the high press of Wing and McNair that if it failed Clayton was left exposed and his lack of mobility really stood out. Furious with what @Smoggydownsouth has said, as above, set Woody up to fail and sapped a huge portion on enthusiasm from the supporters. *** move.

He was fully aware of them and once he stopped chatting to a couple pitch side he has been talking to for about 10 minutes he looked over to the kids and then promptly walked down the tunnel when the players came off after the warm ups. Was not impressed at all Link to post Share on other sites
