It felt a lot riskier than the replays suggest :)

Agreed, on the flip side of that, the chance where Davis casually kneed the ball back to Wes looked more of a sitter on the highlights than it did from the back of the Kop.

Took a slight deflection on the way through to him and he couldn't get it under control. We needed little bits of luck like that today.
 
Why did he?

The frivolous yellow cards and free kicks. A lot very soft free kicks given to them on the edge of our box.

Yet their player blatantly dives and doesn't even get booked. Also, lets not forget Ndiaye was cleaned out again today. He plays on but no retrospective booking for their player.

Our players so much as brush against a Watford player and its free kick and a booking. Where the fuck did he even get those 5 minutes injury time for both halves.
 



My bumhole was very twitchy. The looks of relief around us were a picture. From where we sit I couldn’t believe the net didn’t burst
 
My internal dialogue earlier

[Watford corner, 95 minutes] : "Of course this is what's going to happen, why the fuck would we ever have nice things? Supporting this club is a constant fucking cycle of feint hope and fucking abject misery, I'm so sick of this utter boll...."


[Final whistle]: "Hey hey hey, 3 points in the bag and life is sweet, off to the boozer to celebrate 3 points that were never in doubt 🥳😎"

I thought he booked their player that fouled Ndiaye when the game stopped.
 
Bit of a funny one. on the one hand we do give away tons of unecessary free kicks within shooting distance and most of them are incredibly stupid and avoidable.
On the other hand we are waaaaaaaaaay too honest and do ourselves no favours by staying on our feet. I love that we do but hate how much it causes issues to us when it should be the oppossition suffering through bookings and us having that opportunity within shooting distance.

You call them unnecessary free kicks. I call them not free kicks. Seriously most of the "fouls" today were Watford players falling over.
 
Fucking wank refereeing. Official's job is to keep time and see fair play. Not to engage in the entertainment process by waiting to see if the ball goes into the net in the second minute of added-extra time. Sooner time keeping is controlled externally {like rugby} the better.

You know we made a sub in injury time, right?
 
Maybe wrong but Keith Stroud, looks like Barry Chuckle

Yeah. So ref gets to decide how much extra to add on - some go 30 secs some go 1 minute. Some just wing it for the drama - like him today.
 



were too naive though at times the number of fouls we give away when opposing players are going nowhere is stupid having said that another teams players going down at the slightest touch today these referees always fall for it
