High and late. They were 40 yards from goal. There was no threat. Silly boy

Doesn't look good for Toko who likes a tasty tackle which referees will view as a foul all day long.

Was surprised that many applauded him off the pitch. He had effectively ruined our chances of salvaging anything from the game.
We played better with ten men. That says it all for me. I can't see crofts getting near the starting eleven when everyone is fit. I barely noticed he was playing until he got his marching orders. I'm hoping it's a Blessing in disguise as it will force others to play and hopefully make the club move quicker in the transfer market.

Until their goal, we'd outplayed them in all departments.

Nothing to do with the type of tackle but all to do with the fact that it was high and badly timed. In fact it was a disgraceful tackle that deserved a red card and let his team mates down.
Glad I am not the only one who thought we played well until they scored.

Wow, just goes to show how we all view the game in different ways. I thought he was the only committed player in the first half, he was helping out Bruno and closing down their players from where i was sitting in WSU and look really up for it.

From the east lower, it looked like no foul at all, from reading previous posts on this thread perhaps there was a lot more to it.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Didn't think it was a red, looked like a yellow though. Have seen the replays the ball was off the ground and was there to be one, it wasn't jump, he was in control but late.
The trouble is the ref was very poor, and if you do go in even slightly late into a 50-50 challenge, you make him make a decision.

I too thought we played well along with a lot of others around me.
Their goal was a unstoppable I would say, so can't blame Stockdale for that or anyone else really.
We were the better side definitely , but are lacking in two places, two strikers with good goal scoring records in this Div or higher and with some pace of which we really have only three players that have that CMS, Lua Lua and March and at least one more strong energetic midfielder who organises like Greer does at the back.
I thought it was far more entertaining football and far more conducive to how this division is played also after a few matches i think it will become very productive.

I thought we were controlling the game but we never looked like scoring, to me it had 0-0 written all over it until they scored a very good goal out of the blue.
Yep, I appreciate I'm in the minority when it comes to crofts. I just think he lacks technical ability. Has a poor touch and his passing is not good enough. I know he works hard but I expect that from all our midfielders. Stephens, jfc, toko, Ince all better in my opinion and will improve. That's excluding anyone we may sign.

He was having a great season last season up until he got injured and was on course for player of the season. I thought he picked up from where he left of last season today. A true pro willing to fight for the team. We could do with a few more of him i was say. Still time to get some quality and I'm hoping we are all Pleasantly surprised when the transfer windows SLAMS SHUT.

For me this is what we have been missing for a long time now.
