king canary 7,580 Posted January 1, 2020 This one is on Farke for me- really poor game management, couldn't get out of our own box and the equaliser was inevitable. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy_Bones 441 Posted January 1, 2020 More VAR BS, against Spurs absolutely nobody called offside yet it's given due to VAR, against Palace the Lino gives offside and VAR gets involved to overrule it and yet again we get screwed. Twice in as many games VAR has f**ked us over rather than listening to the match officials, are we just going to get rid of ref's next season and let VAR call everything???? Absolute horses**t system. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

foxchrys 20 Posted January 1, 2020 Could see you became weak mentally towards end and after you concede goal you almost conceded a penalty. I would say you need a huth in that defense to keep everyone's heads together. You guys need a 2 goal cushion otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaltimoreBird 127 Posted January 1, 2020 Today it was clear as day he was on. Just **** defending and poor game management late. Sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

foxchrys 20 Posted January 1, 2020 Aside from that mental breakdown (you had 4 chances to clear that palace build up to their goal) you look like a mid table team. Its the defensive panic that seems your issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adycakes 5 Posted January 1, 2020 I have never seen a team play so well for long periods but fail to kill the game on so many occasions. I'm not sure what the answer is to that, but we are going to struggle to get out of this now, 7 points adrift is a hell of a gap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted January 1, 2020 Angry as much as anything. I don't understand the substitutions at all. Marco hasn't been worth his place all season tbh and to think bringing him on would close out the game ranks among DF's worst decisions. It was in our hands. Still hate VAR even though it appeared to be correct, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaltimoreBird 127 Posted January 1, 2020 So frustrated yet again to be the better side with nothing to show for it. We were quite poor today and yet still deserved 3 points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once again it took an embarassingly long time for them to find a frame and jiggle the lines to justify the decision they wanted to make. All this despite the Premier League being told in no uncertain terms again the other day that VAR is only to be used for clear and obvious errors and not to make forensic offside decisions. This is corruption pure and simple. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody know what's up with Srbeny, was he just dropped for Idah? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
