No way should we be criticising the supporters for the sake of a couple of boos from the Strawberry Corner at full time. I was sat upper Gallowgate and the energy and noise didn't diminish for the full 90. Wonderful effort from all. I thought the atmosphere was great, singing all around the ground again. I was disappointed by the boos mind, found it strange. I guess it was the people focusing on not winning a must-win game, and believing we’re relegated.

Conjo Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 1 hour ago, Dr.Spaceman said: he only picked Lewis because Ritchie was suspended, yet that's one of the best performances we've seen at LB all season. We don't know that. Howe took Darlow & Clark out for Arsenal after the Brentford game. It is very likely that he would have gone with Lewis even if Ritchie was available. Next game against Burnley will give us a much better indication of his judgement of players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Still raging after last night. I want to feel proud of the lads who fought out a draw playing the whole game with 10 men, but I can't forgive that rotten selection of Clark, and the soft goal. We literally put it at the feet of the only man capable on their side of scoring a goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a few boos near me in the east stand. Probably the same knackers that booed taking the knee against West Ham. But overall fantastic support last night.

I think all plans went out the window fairly early. Lol exactly. The guy next to me was pissing me off. Complaining loudly all game about we needed to get forward more.

I've seen a couple of comments saying that Dubs put it at his feet, but that wasn't the case at all. The ball put back in (by Giannoulis?) wasn't actually that good, it was only that Pukki becomes world class against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just feels like knowing that we could have maybe got someone a bit closer to him...although I know that it was probably just bad luck how the ball fell to him.

Squad rotation, clean slate, whatever, but now there's no excuse to play him other than injury. Like @joeyt said, it was a fantastic goal by Pukki and Dubs should have caught it, but we were knackered and down a man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelvey was "marking" Pukki until he decided that he should leave him completely unmarked to allow Giannoulis to play it to him. Not sure why our central midfielder is having to mark their main striker though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were always going to get a chance with us having 10men, can only think of one other threatening moment, he was able to be in the right position at the right time.

buzza Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Everybody knows and has commented on Clarks one or two glaring errors every game. he is a complete liability... Why on earth he is on the pitch instead of fernbandez is anyone´s guess??? Cost us the game last night. Very basic defender at championship level at best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks bad, but I guess you have to factor in they might have been caught on the hop by Dubs punching the ball straight to a Norwich player. Anyway, 10 men and all that....maybe best to just put this one behind us and be thankful we somehow got a point. A loss against these would have been disastrous.

Yup, simply reacting to the ball and run of play. I really thought we were going to win it after the pen, think most of us did, that's why we're so defeated.

Not if you take the previous passage of play into account. A better ball in and their player gets there before Dubravka. The defence was already a shambles before it got to Dubs.
