KrolMong Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 The pen is an odd one. If he’s given it for the elbow, it’s a red too. We’ve settled on allowing them to have it wide and we will deal with the cross. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkowlthesexynewversion Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I revert to my comment when the teams were announced, the midfield is the weak link. The amount of space afforded to their wide players is ridiculous, no surprise the penalty incident came from a cross. But we can't be giving 72% plus possession every game or it will be a very long season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve settled on allowing them to have it wide and we will deal with the cross. I don't think it was deliberate intent, Gregory had his eyes on the ball, but raised his elbow as he went to head it. So I am not arguing against the penalty too much but a red would be harsh. But our defending seems to involve wrestling half the time so their fans were encouraging the ref so no surprise it was given. But we just need to work out the ball isn't radioactive and we need to keep it more. But I think that needs at least 3 changes in midfield. But Bannan is a modest Championship player at best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I can understand why he gave the pen but also don’t think he should have given it. Mainly because he had eyes on the ball didn’t appear to look to elbow etc. As has been said if he did elbow someone as a foul, why no yellow?

I’ll try to remain optimistic and not panic yet, as it’s very early days in the season, but we are being made to look mugs by one of the poorer sides in this division. I hope that this is just early days and down to players still getting to know each other and our system of play, that we will eventually click and start to push on, and also address those blatant midfield issues whilst at it - urgently!
