Who got MOTM? Had to be Barton, he ran the show today!

 

Nolan was it for me today.

 

f*** it. Team of the Match!

 

Did Sky show the naked streaker bloke?  :lol:

 

No :lol: when was that

 

Second half, Barton Free Kick on the Right side of the pitch. It was taking forever as the Ref was booking the last Mackem not to have been booked. Naked Streaker ran from the Gallowgate end, to the half way line, did a circle around Darren Bent and ran back the Gallowgate end.  :lol:

 

Did a circle around Bent :lol: how fitting

Got to say, the referee had a decent game.

 

Other than the fact he was quite card-happy at times, thought he got the pen, the Shola 'offside' and the red card spot on. Mensah should have gone for the incident with Nolan in the box like.

 

Not a chance, he was as erratic and inconsistant as the rest of the refs so far this season. He was card happy one moment, then bending over backwards the next to keep the players on the field (due to waving the cards around too easily to begin with). Booked Danny Simpson for a fantastic challenge, but allowed Phil Bardsley to smash into several players before telling him 'no more' and then booking him when he did it again.

 

Allowed Shattermole to go head to head with him and didn't even book him for that. No respect for himself.

Didn't say he was perfect, but he got the big decisions right.

They want to be thankful he didn't send more of them off tbh, both Turner and Mesnah walked a very fine line and should really have joined Bramble.

You said he was decent, and it read like the only reason you thought that is because decision went our way. Overall he was just as bad as the rest of the them so far this season. Shouldn't allow decisions our way affect that.

They've conceded 8 goals in total before today.

 

think they only had 1 defeat in 8, or even unbeaten in 8 or something, before this match. they're not a bad side which simply makes this achievement even better.

 

What I liked best other than the scoreline was that we played as a team and look dangerous now with the two big lads up front and Barton delivering some great crosses. We might not beat the best but for the first time this season I really feel confident going into games with this 11.

It has nowt to do with the fact they went our way. He got the decisions right - the decisions that shaped the game. He doesn't give the pen and Shola gets flagged as offside, and it's a very a different game.

Actually, sorry if tis been mentioned already, but I've just remembered that 'Lifelong magpie' Bruce was manager of Birmingham when they beat us 5-1 up here in the cup a few years ago, wasn't he??

 

Nice to give it back to him for that too!!
