Stottie Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 It was an idiotic challenge from Lejeune. The ball had clearly gone though, so if a pundit ever claims that might be a factor in a challenge not being a penalty, remember this incident where it wasn't treated as one.

geordie_b Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Tell you what, Long waits for Lejuenne, toe pokes the ball out and gleefully goes over. It’s a very clever piece of play. I’d almost call it cheating; he knows exactly what he’s looking to happen. It is cheating. Long won the pen rather than Lejeune conceding it imo. Players like Shane Long and Andy Johnson have made careers by doing it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I think there's an easy way to avoid that first goal going in, but I dunno what it really is. Maybe the keeper should get across to it, but the shot was pretty accurate... maybe Manquillo shouldn't let him get a shot away, but if he sticks a leg out it's a penny... I just dunno. Perhaps someone else should've come across to cover? Minging and a bit of a weird goal, really. The way to fix it is just to be better-drilled altogether (ideally with better players).

Yorkie Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 What the hell has happened to Gayle? He's not a Premiership level player. There's clearly more to it than that, imo. As soon as he set off on that sprint, shortly after he came on, I knew that'd be it from him for the rest of the game. There's something up with him.

HaydnNUFC Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Balls, missed the interview. Anyone care to give the gist of it? Owt interesting? Disappointed with result, happy with team's progress, thought Yedlin's first yellow was harsh, praised the fans for the journey and wished we were able to win to send them home happier.

Stifler Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Would have taken a point before KO, disappointed we let the win slip out of our hands as Southampton offered little for all the possession they had. Still this is a point I never had us down as having. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Elliot was to blame for the first goal. When a player has so little of the goal to aim at and Elliot is so close to the post then it should be a comfortable save for any goalkeeper when the attacking player is that far away from goal.

Gallowgate Toon Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 It's also frustrating because we really did play some nice football going forward. Wish we'd have gone for the 3rd just a bit more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Not sure Elliot or Manquillo are much to blame for their first. They both assume he's going across goal as that's the way he's running and where the gap for the shot is. He just pulls it near post instead. If Elliot isn't going to his right and it does go across goal instead he has no chance and likewise we'd be complaining if Manquillo didn't try to block the shot across goal. Probably needed a second defender to push Gabbiadini away from goal if anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
