The EMC one I wouldn't. The Wright one, seen them given but not stonewall.

To be fair thats almost as impressive as our win, I couldn't physically drink 11 pints not unless it was over a full dayFirst half we weren’t at the races. Actually think that’s because Leicester are (despite everything going on off the pitch) quite a decent team. Second half we were a different animal - not quite back to back out fluent best but showing signs of it. Fair summary or do my 11 pints consumed make it inaccurate?
It was going in a wasn't it, I don't mind but?Tats touch for the second goal was unreal
Not surprised, that tiny local train waiting there at FT was an accident waiting to happenHope all still at the stadium are okay - am hearing it's kicked off on the first train out and at the Arena Park
Disagree about Wright, seen them given. No way he could've stayed on his feet, but the defender did get a toe on the ball.Don’t think the Wright one was a pen and he should have just stayed on his feet and buried it. EMC one probably was for me. Footnote : Dasilva should have been sent off again - he’s got to watch his tackling.
Looked like it was going in but good job Wright made sure ( a bit like Vik the other night )It was going in a wasn't it, I don't mind but?
Not sure it was. Heading for the post, could've gone either way.It was going in a wasn't it, I don't mind but?
Ref was desperate for him to put his flag up. Asked him at least 5 times over the headset
When he got booked. Studs up on his shin.Missed Dasilvas when was that?
Lampards subs were outstanding today. Absolutely spot on.

Looked like there guy threw Kitching to the floor and Kitching truly obligedOnly seen it live and it looked like some handbags kept going by Kitch then he threw himself to the floor when a hand came near him.
Yeah, and there was nothing at all in that either.I don’t know what they were appealing for - the ref signalled shoulder not arm - I think they were moaning about the Sakamoto challenge
Their player simply wasnt strong enough ,it was a fine bit of skill by SakamotoI don’t know what they were appealing for - the ref signalled shoulder not arm - I think they were moaning about the Sakamoto challenge
I'll never forget that cheeky goal that Dion Dublin scored when momentum carried him off behind the goal line. He carried on running back onto the pitch, behind Given and nicked the ball from his feet to tap the ball home! Despite protests, the ref gave it because he pointed out that Dion had not technically left the pitch, as momentum took him off. Because he turned and came straight back on, he was deemed to still be in play!Shay Given retired years ago so obviously he won't play
Bad tackle that was to be fairTBH missed him getting booked too lol
Do me a favour and skip my bits from around half time.Not read the match thread yet - looking forward to doing so later.
Still absolutely on a high after that; we really needed that. You could see how much it meant to the players too. Momentum back on our side!
PUSB
I thought the same.Not sure it was. Heading for the post, could've gone either way.
He couldn't after the asante sub. Used all 3 sub wimdowsagree other than (and I lost count of how many we made so might be we didn’t have one left) I would’ve taken EMC off for Minny towards the end as he was blowing a bit…
He looks so good. The chav element of our fanbase will moan when he doesn't have 100 percent success rate on tricks and dribbles but most football fans can see he is a very talented playerEsse is going to be big for us.
Thought, other than the penalty decision on EMC, that the ref was pretty good overall today.People moan about refs but we got lucky a couple of times when their number 9 clearly had the beating of Kitching and he went down. First half one was never a foul
I was at that game right behind the goal where Dublin scored. I remember the quote after the game " Given was the only Irishman who didn't know where Dublin was ".I'll never forget that cheeky goal that Dion Dublin scored when momentum carried him off behind the goal line.

Looks exciting. Thought he tried to be too clever a few times though. Will need to learn when just to hold the ball up, and when to try the clever flick.Thought Esse was brilliant today, he’s so exciting to watch.
