How is that a foul

Yeah, as you say, was a soft free kick to start all that as well

Totally bottled it. Unacceptable. We still should’ve got rid though. Played really well apart from that

Undeserved that. Who bottled that edge if the area

Standard in this league. Funny that the Ipswich comms were lauding the crowd for helping getting Eccles booked but when it came to Hurst said our players were OTT for surrounding ref

Great effort by Eccles. We’ve been really good

Bit of a curveball Torp being out when all the talk was Wright, Rudoni and Sakamoto. Anyone know what the issue is ? Decent starting line up though and still pretty good cover on the bench considering

Best wishes and prayers for you both

Exactly. People just keep shouting bazball but in a majority of cases it’s just poor decisions/shot selection. Stokes got 19 off 49 balls (including a couple of nicks for 4) so hardly reckless and showed a willingness to dig in. The scoreboard was barely moving after tea so he was trying to...
