I personally thought that was a yellow after the foul on Paterson, potentially a red, he then took out Buckley who was also taken off..... So Wednesday lose 2 players whilst the QPR lad gets a yellow & stays on the pitch. I don't remember them showing a replay of the Patterson challenge. Could be wrong I took the opportunity to check the scores and the story about Lockyer was developing as well. The one on Buckley was not pretty either. My point is more Paterson is very limited in what he can do. 100% effort and the niggly side, but we simply do not look threatening with him in forward areas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAL Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Wow, what a result.ย Not seen it all, none of the last 15 minutes or so, but what I saw was a lot of huffing and puffing with no decisive attacking intent, but you could tell they were trying.ย Seen the Cadamarteri goal but not the winner yet.ย ย Now the rant... Came away from work thinking I would hit traffic, but got to Rivelin one way system with ease, so instead of going over the top of wisewood I decided to go to Hillsborough corner then up Middlewood Road.ย All well until I got to about 100 yards before the Tram stop at Hillsborough Park, then the match finished. Then the traffic came to a full stop, then we crawled along Middlewood Road, it took 50 minutes from the lights below the Park Hotel to the Tram terminus.ย Some of the 50 minutes were because of the lights, but at the beginning it was because the stream of absolute BELLENDS that think its okay to just stop everybody moving just because they want to walk in the middle of the road. Losing one nil, then equalizing and stuffing a winner in stoppage time, everybody should be happy, but the Glaring/Seething/eyes bulging hate that you got for having the temerity to try and get through was beyond belief, after being up for work at 4.30am i was in a great mood to be going home... Until I met the Snarling selfish WANKERS going down towards Hillsborough Corner.

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Had to leave early to go on a night out up in west yorks. So left on about 80mins. ย so basically missed our goals and apparently the best feeling in football coming from behind and a last minute winner. Still we won and another 3points. Itโs a great result but the accumulation of injuries is getting worrying particularly as we head into the Xmas period. The lads ย are doing great but itโs going to make it difficult for DR if he canโt make changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoylandOwl Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I thought Iโd wait until this morning to post my thoughts as most people saw the first half differently to me it seemedโฆ And would I think differently today.ย No. Is the answer. I genuinely didnโt think we were bad or awful like many did in the first half. We had a couple of lovely moves, switching ball through the defence, right to left and making it all the way to a crossing opportunity. No, we didnโt get goalscoring chances really, but I was absolutely fine with the effort. It was frustrating. Nothing more. Their goal, was lucky in the sense that Dawson was all over it, I was right behind it and he had it covered and Diaby tried to keep it out but of course it didnโt work. One of those things.ย Yeah it went flat after they scored, and going into half time it was meh. But overall. I wasnโt too disheartened at all.ย But in the second half, we stepped everything up another notch. And one of the catalysts for that was the skipper. Heโs been quiet for a few games IMO, but yesterday he was very good. Bailey is some player, he just doesnโt stop and just has that knack decent strikers have. Musaba blew hot and cold, as per but we got the hot when we needed it. Gassama still looks like a kid, but, that innocent almost works in his favour. Heโs got no fear and the pressing in the Kop/south corner near the end after losing the ball was excellent from him.ย We got the corner that eventually led to the winner from pinning them in, perfect execution of the plan you could argue.ย A last minute winner is always absolutely fantastic, but coming from behind in the last 5 mins to win. Thatโs a lot sweeter against a team who seemed to be happy with their lot, highlighted by the sub of bringing Steve Cook on at the end to defend it.ย Next weekend is just as big as yesterday.
