It wasn’t vintage stuff. This pissing about at the back is a nightmare. Saka is a bit of a passenger at times, Binks is a liability…. But fuck it , 3 points was all that mattered, clearly without a few of our best players.
Biggest plus was the performances of Grimes and Dovin !
We have hope again

6 left footed players in the starting 11 last night. I wonder how many times that's happened in teams over the years. Can't be many

Four at the back depends on the return of Bidwell.
Which centre half do we leave out?

Nothing marginal about it. Positionally he was off by a mile. He didn’t touch the ball but clearly blocked the keeper’s view.

MVE's throw-in was flicked on by their player and Rudoni mis-controls it through his legs towards goal. At this point BTA's foot is offside



BTA then tries to get a shot in and the ball ricochets backwards. The lino has now stopped and is in the process of flagging. So yer, I'm pretty sure he gave it for the initial offside rather than from Tats shot (though that might well have been given too)

This is the 'push' by Thomas. Cook probably doesn't do himself any favours by getting back up and challenging for the header (as someone else mentioned, Cook got Hamer sent off in our first season back in the Champ, so meh).

Wembley hotel? You can book it if you Thomas Cook it (sorry )...

can’t believe people care and are still discussing it to be honest, we won and that’s all that matters isn’t it??

and actually, if it was a foul then fair play Bobby and I’m all for a bit of the dark arts, people have complained for ages that we’re too soft and have no bite!

There were at least half a dozen examples of their players climbing over all of us - great goal ! Onwards and upwards

There are 0-0 draws when neither side deserves to win, and 0-0 draws when neither side deserves to lose. I thought they were going to steal it when they had that last 5 minutes with repeated corners. They were constantly shithousing and time wasting, obviously thinking if they scored there wouldn't be time for us to to equalise. That's why when we scored my cheers turned to laughter.

Thought we were way too conservative for the first hour playing 5ATB and Grimes sitting in front, against a team who really didn’t commit many players forward at all. Lampard switched back to 433 as soon as he had two proper wingers available so I guess that’s what we’re getting for the rest of the season/Lampard era.

I agree. Thomas just puts two hands on Cook's back and shoves him over. At the exact same time their keeper is shoving Tats over. Earlier on Thomas had his shirt pulled over his head. So much white noise at set-pieces I can't imagine how refs make their decisions.

The ref should have booked dunne early on in the second half. He let him get away with murder.

Thomas clearly gave him a push first but considering how much battling had gone on all day it wasnt too bad and in the glad the ref allowed the goal

Did you think so? I didn’t think they time wasted particularly, and I’ve seen damn worse shithousing. The game seemed to be played in a good spirit until EMC and Dunne got a bit silly. I. In answer to your first sentence, I suspect the neutral would say that neither team deserved to lose, although I do think we shaded it in terms of shots and chances.

We’d have a waiting list for season tickets if we played at Loftus Road so they should get back in their box (quite literally!)

You've mixed up your 80s advertising slogans, "You can do it if you B&Q it" "Don't just book it, Thomas Cooke it". I am very aware of this as I grew up in the 80s and my name is Thomas Cooke
