He tried didn't he. Bellamy picks up a yellow for retaliating after being kicked up in the air three times, blatant body checks - including one on Cole in the box - go unpunished whilst Noble gets carded for organising the wall....the list goes on.
My opinion
carlton cole worked his arse off TODAY AND HELD THE BALL UP WELL --well done
gabbi did well mopping up everything
upson did well arial
it was a change to see us chase everything-well done
boa morte i thought was very good today
I think neill unless he was under orders to go awal better have a look at himself
green was once again superb
and i thought when there was only 15 mins to go we were still going for it which we must commend the manager for!!
Dont be hard on solano i think he passes well and brings players into the game(hes played 90mins in 2 games and had 4 chances-the fact my grand mother could have scored two of them is neither hear or there i like him)
the one problem we have is -----are we giving noble cart blanc????????
although i think he will be a great player unfortunately i dont think mullins is good enough to cover him and we tend to get over run!!!
in short i think the effort today was superb
and my man of the match AND LETS GET BEHIND HIM
Just got back, I could sing England's number one all night right now. Big well done to Carlton up front, played really well I thought. Support was nice and vocal today, pompey were terrible, loved taking the piss out of thier shitty tune as well :lol:
all the commentators were saying that Nobby's misses were sitters. From the telly they looked far from that. Maybe he should have got the first, but seemed to be reaching. The second cannoned back off the bar about waste height. Hardly sitters, for those one you need more luck than skill.
I aint seen any of the game, was at work while it went on. Shall be good to watch MOTD just for the penalty as thats all they will probably show. ****ing working tuesday too and have a meeting at 10:30pm :shock: so miss the cov match

Funnily enough I instantly thought of you when he gave that penalty :lol:
I thought of Gnome then and when Bellamy got yellow carded. The more the game went on i saw the ref giving a decision that would give them the result and as soon as the pen was awarded, i thought that was it

Worryingly they were all on the same hand. Probably a byproduct of being around the Norfolk inbreeders so long. Still I can see it being a positive for a goalie.
