  • Broadcasting rules are stupid…..denying clubs extra income
  • We were the recipients of a soft penalty for handball against Wrexham  so assume this the  new ruling by the FA on what a handball is.

  • Only us and Wycombe from league one are winning at HT.… 
  • Brownie over analyses individual moments sometimes, but we’ve played genuinely well 3 times this season so if he’s a bit negative about our general performances he’s not being miserable he’s being honest. 
    My issue is nothing to do with him being miserable - it’s him starting every sentence with ‘yeah’ and then going on some tangent about what he thinks should have happened during a pattern of play.

    In all my life listening to football commentary I’ve never heard anyone speak about the game like Steve Brown does during it - and there’s a reason for that.

    He was good value in the studio where it’s slowed down and you can discuss certain bits backed up by video - but it does not work during the game.
    Completely agree, he’ll start going on about how their player
    should have done x y and z and its not needed
  • Can say it’s harsh and potential natural movement to push off after getting up but his arm is far away from the body…….
    This. Other way round & we'd be screaming for it.

    Yeah but Taylor's struggling to his feet, his back to the ball a couple of feet away - and totally unaware of the ball.

    Never would have been a penalty a couple of years ago. 
     

  • I had a good view of that - never a penalty. Should be 3-0 up but plenty of time to put this one to bed.
  • KO second half

    He certainly hasn’t mastered the art of being a co-commentator. Be nice if he would let the actual commentator get a word in.

    Let's accept that pen as we got the draw against Wrexham with a similar situation.
  • Almost 2-2 Bonne just wide
  • And again. Saved by Mannion
  • Goal Southend. Been coming. We are absolutely awful 
  • FFS typical
  • It’s him

  • Shot deflected past Mannion
  • Coker
  • 2-2...fu*k it...COYR FFS....


    ...at least Brownie will be happy it seems
  • Maybe not
  • That’s nice didn’t think 365 did 2 up and payout in the FA Cup early rounds.  Was already getting squeaky after the pen.
  • 🤦‍♂️
  • 3-2 Bonne all over this.

    It’s him
    It’s not him. It’s Coker.
  • A real cup game now. Let's see what this group are made of. 
  • Oh dear. We are crap.

    All we need now is Bonne to score the winner.
