Bloody hell that was stressful.

We were better than Notts by miles. They setup to soak up the pressure.

Second leg is now the real pressure game.

I love how plebs on social media say it was a dive for the Pen.

Will take that and let’s hope we go all guns blazing next week.

It was though,he played for it

I'm not sure he did. Looks like he just went over in what was a clean challenge. That happens. It's not a dive every time a player goes down. Bayliss looked bemused when he got up

kapowaz · May 12, 2018

Sure he played for it, like a dozen penalties a week are given. Let’s not pretend that we’re still in 1950 and players keep going under every tap they feel.

Honestly I don’t know how Sky commentators’ brains don’t explode under the cognitive dissonance of calling this an injustice and being perfectly happy with it in the PL.

kapowaz · May 12, 2018

Sky seem convinced it wasn’t a penalty fwiw. Don Goodman calling it all manner of variations on injustice, when really 1-1 is a fair result for a game we (largely) controlled.

Not bad play but i'm not sure we deserved all that much and in front of our own fans I expect a win if we want to progress.

Fuck off you bandwagon twat

Wycombe Manager:

Not a penalty.
Marc McNulty is God.
Grimmer should have taken the guy out for their goal.

I'll watch it again. In real-time it looked like he knew full well but haven't seen a replay

The CableGuy · May 12, 2018

Nolan: Poor decision for penalty. Ref missed handball. Should have won. Ref made a howler. We were robbed.

SBAndy · May 12, 2018

I fancy that was one of our best performances of the season. Another day we win that comfortably.

Touch line ban surely for that?

Hahahahahahah bandwagon twat... fuck you you prick, I have an opinion. We controlled the game but didn't have many chances I wanted more at home, i think we could struggle more in the in the second leg... yeah bandwagon... cock womble

Gazolba · May 12, 2018

Can't see a draw at home being enough to get us through.
We'll have to up the quality of the finishing to stand any chance.

He got his leg taken from under him, (defo not a dive) but after he got the ball ..

You are you pleb, turn up to comment on a match thread. Must be a strange feeling for you

I meant at home. I think away will be a struggle, I didn't see enough chances. or real ones.

It wasn't a dive he just fell over after County player cleanly got the ball, ref got it wrong.

PTA · May 12, 2018

We are better than Notts County just a lot less street-wise. They did not deserve their goal and only snuck it in due to Jones' grit and if we hadn't got a non-penalty they would have won and the tie would have been over. They knew exactly how to just soak up the pressure and play poor football to just keep us at bay while getting frustrated.

wingy · May 12, 2018

It's in our favour
That penalty will really play with their heads .
Stabbing in Paris tonight
Sounds like five people taken out
Perspective everyone.

Never expected to read that on a footie forum!

The CableGuy · May 12, 2018

Robins:

Pitch was heavy.
Started well.
Created loads of chances.
Played better than scoreline suggested at HT.
County are experienced
Young players did well
We didn't need luck but nice to get some
Should have had a penalty
Would have been gutted if that penalty was given against us.
Hit the post, had shot stopped on line, deserved some luck.

In replays it looks like defender does make contact after playing the ball so is always going over. Not sure it is a dive just contact in a challenge

jordan210 · May 12, 2018

I assume this is be a fine. Are you allowed to say that as a chairman.

Nothing like stating the obvious is there?

Personally thought it was really soft. Happy to get it but soft!

wingy · May 12, 2018

Edit
Two according to France 24 including the assaillant.

Hullinho87 · May 12, 2018

Very very interesting for next week in all areas.

Two contrasting styles.
It would be unfair to call Notts a long ball team, more functional and direct I suppose ...

.. as it would be inaccurate to call us a pure footballing side, but we do look to involve our midfield more and construct attacks (frustratingly or otherwise).

Whoever’s style kicks in best in the first half next week are likely to win I reckon!

covcity4life · May 12, 2018

Ill take thwy. Didnt look a pen from where i was

Even game. We probably shaded it but they has good chances too

Davies motm followed by bayliss

BBC stats 14 shots and you say we didn't have many chances? Your an idiot

fernandopartridge · May 12, 2018

Fair enough I take my comment back

Johnnythespider · May 12, 2018

Was it a pen, I couldn't give a shit, it's about time we got one of them. It makes the second leg a lot more winnable. It's ok to be a bit more partisan. These teams have been diving and rolling around all season, I'm with Nick, stamp on one of the fuckers next time and give him something to roll around for.

Not necessarily, County have to come out a bit more 2nd leg and that might suit us. What you expect is at odds with what happens in football over two legs. 1-1 at half time and you think we have lost? Unbelievable when we were the better footballing side especially in first half and created 3 really good chances.
