Eustace seems to think they should have won.

We were in control when we scored, but then they had that 15-20 min spell at the end of the first half when they were in full control

Second half was pretty much all us and we thoroughly deserved the win

Yeah, it's a bit of a weird take to think they deserved to win.

They were the better team in the first half, and they're a good side, but second half they were second best by a good distance.

To be honest, we should’ve won by 3-4 goals. That penalty shouldn’t have been. Eccles bottled 2 great chances and in general, 3-2 seems like an unfair reflection of how the game actually went.

Those idiots at the Second Tier Podcast can spin on it. IIRC, they tried to discredit Robins for not going up with Vik & Hamer as well as the Lampard slander. They can kick rocks.

They had 2 shots the whole 2nd half so this is obviously nonsense.

We went 1-0 up with a ‘freak’ goal so yeah, they probably will outscore us on xG because they were chasing and they got a penalty (which shouldn’t have been).

FL post match reaction was spot on, we let them dictate how the game was played in the 1st half. 2nd half we took more control and created 4 or 5 really big chances and took 2 of them to win it.

FootMob has Derby ‘winning’ on xG and I’m not sure how…

That said, I went down for a half time pint around 42+ minutes so missed their 2 best chances of the half (apparently).

Good game. Great win. Never a penalty; could see that even from where I was.

I know I'm old and grumpy but can't people manage to contain their bladders for 45 minutes and also get in their seats when the game starts. Up down, up down. People in front up, down, up, down. Particularly when they come and go as a gang of 5-6. Rant over

Can see why the ref gave it, he doesn't have the benefit of replay. In the end, didn't really matter.

Sat next to them going ‘where were you when you were shit’, to which my reply was simply ‘right here’. Odd bunch

To be fair, you said earlier that it was your first time in block 5. So they did have a valid question.

Agree he doesn't seem to be able to beat his man and he holds onto the ball too long.

Maybe treat all with respect and sell in the seat, come to you with a tank on their back? sounds like a winner?,

The angle in that replay is basically the angle that the ref had. I have no idea how he couldn't see that the ball changed direction off rushworth.

He could have consulted his linesman, but wouldn't have been any wiser.
