This commentary on the very day we honour John Motson

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:01 pm

They have had both FBs booked and yet our widemen will not run at them and force a challenge.
I’ve noticed this over many years. Pros do not want to get another pro sent off and yet whenever there is the slightest touch they are snarling in the refs face. Ironic.

Well played Taylor

Southampton have pulled it back to 2-2. Brought Ward Prouse on and he has 2 assists. West Ham 1 up at Utd.

This is awful,we are playing like we don't want to score.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:01 pm

Anass been way off it too.

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:02 pm

Hammers winning at OT

Bitterly disappointed with the end product from Zaroury tonight

Thought that was in, clearly not though

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:03 pm

That looked over the line, but I assume goal line technology was in play.

HiThere · Post by **HiThere** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:03 pm

Twine should have been booked there

Argh feck me

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:04 pm

So close

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:04 pm

Looks like Southampton's 2nd wasn't allowed. Now 2-1 again.

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:04 pm

Wish we had Benny on the bench.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:04 pm

Looked in.
Brilliant defending

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:05 pm

Didn’t cross the line on the replay

Yep. He’s the low block breaker.

Walcott goal disallowed I believe. Still 2-1 Grimsby

Saints equaliser scrubbed off

I went to school with Rachel and know her fairly well, but **** me, she’s even doing my head in.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:06 pm

They will get nose bleeds being that far up the pitch.

Croydon Claret · Post by **Croydon Claret** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:06 pm

Last thing we want is a Zaroury injury

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:07 pm

Could be a long night at this rate, they're defending doggedly and we aren't quite on our game.

St Christophers? If you were the same year, we'll know a lot of the same people.

Please no Zaroury

expoultryboy · Post by **expoultryboy** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:08 pm

Is there extra time or straight to pens ?

Primary school - St Stephen’s. Played football with her on the same team at Bank Hall too. Her mum was the German teacher at our secondary school.

ET I think.

I say that - it's what the commentators said. So it might go straight to penalties.

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:09 pm

Fleetwood have been superbly coached defensively. We haven’t had the nouse to break them down, YET.

Aye. Margaret taught Spanish at Towneley as well.

To score of course

Foster squared it for the invisible man.

Yes, Towneley.

Pretty sure her brother Ben went to Towneley too. He was the year below.

We don't seem to have the urgency like usual.

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:14 pm

******* hell, Foster.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:14 pm

Good movement but has to shoot there

ksrclaret · Post by **ksrclaret** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:14 pm

Really not sure Foster fits the way we want our strikers to play.

Hope there is something I’m missing here

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:15 pm

That was unlucky. Nice lay off from Foster.

Middle-agedClaret · Post by **Middle-agedClaret** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:15 pm

Fleetwood playing very well.

scamander · Post by **scamander** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:16 pm

Foster squares it and the commentators discuss how it was a missed shot (bizarre as it was obviously a squared pass for a tap in). Someone should have been there.

Croydon Claret · Post by **Croydon Claret** » Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:16 pm

That needed to be on target at least

Not Towneley. I think Ben went to QEGS.

Fair play to Fleetwood..defending has been well disciplined. Heads haven't dropped neither even with 10 men. Kudos to them.
