What a steal

[rosy red]

In my opinion we got away with one there but will take the 3 points whatever

 

[dillis]

Could have been 4-4

 

[rosy red]

Yeah but they missed some right sitters

 

[Oohaah! Bob Bookah!]

Yeah but they missed some right sitters

Yeah but so did we

 

[Mickyb]

So did we

 

[Flumps]

That will sting for Swansea. Really at least deserved a point.

I'd be lying if I said I gave much of a shit though.

 

[ATL Recs]

So did we

Two real sitters

 

[rosy red]

Well done to naughton for letting brewster through, once a blade always a blade

 

[Gretsch Blade]

Smash n grab!

 

[dillis]

McBurnie, Berge and Brewster should all at least hit the target if not score. Piroe for them fluffed two real chances then they have that fortunate chance from Wes’ clearance. Draw fair result IMO but I wouldn’t have felt hard done to losing it.. just like I don’t feel like we’ve robbed them.

UTB

I don’t think that was a steal,it was a very even game but we had the extra will to go on and win it.I have been bleating on about the need to win a good number of away games to get automatic promotion,tonight is exactly the way to do it.A professional performance and an excellent winning goal,our challengers just dont have the quality of Brewster and Khadra to go and make the difference.

 

[SUFC Guy]

The ref gave us fuck all for 94 minutes on nothing challenges and then when you expect him to bottle it again....

Best refereeing performance so far this season

 

[Harry's Game]

We take those two early chances in the first ten minutes and that’s good night early

 

[metalblade]

A bit of quality won an even game, no steal, no smash and grab, nothing to see here

 

[shrubbery]

Completely disagree - no way you could characterise that result as a steal as we had just as many chances to win the game as Swansea. We just managed to actually take one of them.

 

[Sheffsteel]

The neutral Talksport 2 commentary said at the final Swansea will feel gutted as they deserved a point.
They basically said a draw would have been fair with both teams having chances to win it.

They also commented that many refs would have probably given a foul
but mentioned that it didn't help at Naughton was too busy looking at Brewster and not watching the ball.
So they said that one could argue that it was just a case of Brewster being stronger.

Think last season that's classed as a foul, as any kind of physical contact was deemed a foul
but this season the new directive encourages more physical play...hence the ref thought it OK under the current rules.

Insult to the lads to suggest smash n grab

And they were right. We smash and grabbed a scrappy game which hardly ever happens for us. I know it’s early but that kind of result (IMO) points to promotion.

The earlier grapple with Brewster was more physical than that and the ref gave nowt.

Liverpool man utd and man City been doing that for years

we had one more shot on target than them and it was decisive

it's not luck it's hard work and team ethics edging a tight game

 

[FlamingLip]

Hardly akin to a backs to the walls job in the prem and putting away a last ditch half-chance. Two decent sides having a go from the off, both enjoying the better in spells. Stats actually show we edged it on chances. A draw or a 1 nil either way would've been a pretty fair outcome. How can anyone consider it a smash and fckin grab

 

[blade too long]

we kept. pushing in the 94th minute and they stopped . was surprised Naughton fell over so easily letting brewster in
they are masters of their own defeat

He feigned an injury to try and win the free kick,good on the ref,Brewster was just too quick and strong…definately no foul.

I don’t think that’s given as a foul very often. as a defender if you try and use your body instead of playing the ball, you run the risk of being shrugged off. Just beaten to it by a better player.

Can see how it’s given, but it would have been a real travesty. None of their players seemed to think it was a foul either.

What a steal get in.​

In a different game this season, a similar incident will occur and be given as a foul. Both for and against us.

I think defenders think just throw themselves to the ground in the belief the ref will give the foul, given the attacking opportunity it presents.

My favourite one of these ‘fouls’ is the full back in his own corner falling over the ball as the opposing player gets close.

Infuriating as fuck, so glad the ref saw through it tonight

 

[Weasel]

Never a foul on Naughton. If you watch him closely, he is watching Brewster and knows he is going to get done for speed, do deliberately steps across Brewster to try and block him off. Brewdog changes trajectory and moves across him and runs inside him, and Naughton knows he's been done and falls over feighning injury. There was bugger all contact really. Naughton was trying to play the professional defender and was done all ends up. Great pace and play by Brewdog and a lovely well worked goal. Any Swansea fan or manager complaining about our winning goal can kiss my arse. Great goal and all above board.

 

[Harry's Game]

When I saw it live I thought it was a foul by Brewster on Naughton, but when you see that angle from behind the goal Naughton tries to run across Brewster to obstruct him but then falls over, the ref got it spot on.

In my defence I was watching it live on Sky Red button which is like trying to watch a game through a Stained glass window that hasn’t been cleaned since 1793.

Didn't even have a scoreboard on, cunts.
