Earlsdon has already decided that was a smoke screen so it's a fact in his mind now.

Thought if you give a penalty you can't give a red card under new rules?..

No you can still be sent off if its deliberate:


It is no longer an automatic red card if a player or goalkeeper brings down an opponent while acting as the last line of defence; where a genuine attempt has been made to play the ball, officials will be allowed to give a penalty and only book the offender.

But deliberate fouls - including holding, pulling or pushing, not playing the ball, serious foul play, violent conduct or deliberate handball in order to deny a goalscoring opportunity - will still result in dismissal.

This is embarassing really.

Mowbray needs to have a think really, you can't go from being all over them to this.

No but I think having 10 men is a bigger disadvantage than Agyei being subbed off.

need to have a rethink quick
need a good ball playing midfielder - a good winger, and somebody else to play up top
we need to put teams away or we will struggle badly

Yup cause signing an unfit player would help us ....

Instead of lapping up everything that is being said to you, use your initiative.

He wasn't unfit. Mowbray said he may have had a bad injury previously, but those comments were excused straight afterwards when he said we signed Turnbull instead.

It's comments like that which he uses to try and stop the fans getting on his back, and it sadly works.

One suspension like this and we suddenly look fragile again, if he has other defenders lined up then fair enough, but i'd be surprised.

So do we just keep signing loads of strikers?

11 players on the pitch, Mr Aup front next time and we beat northamptoon at home. Let's get all of our bad luck out of the way this afternoon and take the positives from the first half (still...ggrrrrrrrr)

we need quality not quantity
we dont have enough quality - and that shows when Tudgay and Thomas are on the bench

We need to work on this formation. Can't keep playing wing backs, I've never seen us consistently perform with wing backs

Yea we are, because we gave away a penalty and had a player sent off. Not because of the substitution.
