We should stick with Wilder, he's definitely the right manager for us, however tonight the following cannot be said after the game:

-We didnt lose this because of fine margins
-We didnt lose this because of Basham going off injured
-The tactics for this game were not right
-Fulham are not a premier league giant so its not chalk and cheese.

I want to hear fireworks, say we've been cr@p for a change rather than the usual excuses.

You’ll hear the same excuses 100%

WRONG WRONG WRONG YOU TIT

Lol

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

How stupid and naive is The Prince?? The Manager knows his jobs safe even with insipid displays like this? This malaise will fester into next season where we will be in big trouble again. It’s that bad.

 

[ATL Recs]

Hi

Getting rid of Wilder wouldn’t necessarily make us better. I can only liken us to Norwich last season. They kept their manager and now look at them.
Bournemouth changed theirs and look at them.

norwich played better than this pal

 

[FriethBlade]

That was a penalty 100%

 

[essexblade73]

Anywhere else on the pitch thats a foul

 

[Lawrence]

Well that was dangerous play all day missed the ball completely!

 

[Headshrinker]

Wow, robbed of a penalty. Same as Ramsdale the other day.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

That’s a pen

 

[FriethBlade]

Hes cleaned him our knee high

 

[Karlos]

That's a pen and a red card. Var is a fucking joke.

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

That’s a fucking penalty. Twats.

 

[@thelane]

Sorry Chris Wilder - nowhere near good enough. Wrong team, wrong tactics....no fight. Self reflection needed - big time !

 

[DronnieBlade]

Watched that back 5 times.

Stonewall Drywall and Brickwall all rolled in to one.

Farcical.

UTB

 

[Netsix_and_chill]

If a defender does that tackle its a penalty definitely. Glad we didn't get it though cos now I want Fulham to catch Newcastle and send them down. We are already dead, I am looking for a silver lining.

 

[HeySethUTB]

How the fuck do midfielders get sent off for winning the ball but showing too much aggression/out of control, but an out of control keeper volleying the fuck out of a player is fine?

 

[originaltrueblade]

Unbelievable fucking cheating that was a stonewall penalty

glad we are leaving this corrupt division

 

[Sheffsteel]

Norwich were in no way, shape or form as dire, toothless and abject as we are

Norwich looked good but we’re getting beat 3 and 4-1 most weeks.

We look shit but every game we play is really close...we seem to lose 1-0 every match.

 

[drblade]

Wilder has to tell it like it is in his post game interview

 

[YES Blade]

It was a penalty, there’s another excuse for Wilder along with Bash’s injury

 

[DroitwichBlade]

Hi

norwich played better than this pal

And you watched Norwich week in week out did you?

 

[K1 flabby stick]

How stupid and naive is The Prince?? The Manager knows his jobs safe even with insipid displays like this? This malaise will fester into next season where we will be in big trouble again. It’s that bad.

Methinks Rip van Winkle may have a few names lined up for t'Prince

 

[bartman]

Wilder has to tell it like it is in his post game interview

How what is ? He has under performed?

 

[SUFCinks]

I wish it was a pen but never was lads - 50/50

 

[Sheffsteel]

Unbelievable fucking cheating that was a stonewall penalty

glad we are leaving this corrupt division

The commentators also initially agreed it looked a definite penalty
Then they looked at it again from a different angle and said “hold on...from this camera angle now it looks like it probably isn‘t a penalty”.

They then laughed saying different camera angles can make a foul look so different.

 

[HeySethUTB]

That challenge was reminiscent of Pickfords on Van Dijk, afterwards Micheal Oliver agreed it was the wrong call. Why don’t they learn.

 

[Swinton Blade]

That's a pen and a red card. Var is a fucking joke.

VAR is a joke.

Kante could have been sent off earlier in day for a tackle that wasn't too dissimilar to Lunstram vs Brighton.

No consistency.

 

[Karaoke Blade]

Yes we are shit, but those on here saying 'glad we didnt get pen' 'glad we lost'. Just fuck off.

 

[Drunk blade]

I wish it was a pen but never was lads - 50/50

Agree 100% keeper got ball first
