bobbydazzla Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 (edited) Is it normal for Pope not to do the pre-match warm up ? Got into the ground much earlier than normal today so watched the warm up for a change, thought Pope mustn't be playing as there was no sign of him on the pitch Edited September 1 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Surprised at a lot of these comments. He kept us in the game!! With all he had to do are people really digging him out over that? He saved the follow up shot! I can’t imagine what the score would’ve been if we had Vicario in goal…. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand On the Burn own goal it looked like he just tipped it past the far post. Do not understand the hate. He had some terrible goal kicks but overall I though it was good ole Pope.
