It did on the replay tbf. What I didn’t understand is that the lino didn’t appear to flag until after the ref had spoken to him. If that’s right and it was offside then the ref gave it. Is he even allowed to call offside?
If Gus is to come back in I’d be tempted to play him in the 10 and retain Eccles. His willingness to shoot from distance and reasonable skill at it would actually suit the role. But then that’s harsh on Palmer who worked his bollocks off today. Nice problems to have really.
9th start for the club and looked arguably the best player on the pitch away from home in the second tier. Love a potential success story from the Academy.
Colossal result that. Fadz just pips Eccles for MOM.
Can’t really recall Eccles giving the ball away - real prospect. To look that comfortable in the championship in your 9th start for the club is impressive.
I’d be tempted to start him over Hamer next game, partly based on his performance...
Very shaky first 25 odd minutes but improved massively after the goal. Eccles tidy. Need to stop running into each other it’s got calamity goal written all over it.
At first glance that midfield looks devoid of creativity and weak as piss. But, prior to this season, Eccles looked a real prospect whenever he played so 🤞🏻
Caught up on House of Dragon and the last couple of episodes have been fantastic. I would like to increase my previous rating of 6/10 to 9, if it pleases.
