Frustrating half. Masters of our own downfall to an extent but the ref has been a fucking disgrace.

[Macca]

Not sure about the autos with this lot
All from a shit predictable corner routine. Clumsy foul and stupid handball

 

[pusbccfc]

Asante getting outpaced by a goal keeper now.

 

[Grendel]

Is it only me that thought the short corner would have been ok if their players weren't allowed to use their hands to block it? He literally jumped with his arms in the air

It’s pointless and hit so close to him you rarely get a handball for it

 

[PVA]

Referee has given a penalty because the players shouted nasty words at him. It's a fucking foul on Thomas. Get a grip ref.

Nah it was the lino telling him it was a penalty

 

[Garlana86]

Derby are bad and so were Hull, regardless how pretty our passing spells are, we're getting the same out of these games as teams at this level.

 

[shmmeee]

Rudonis final balls have been awful today.

 

[stupot07]

2-2

Neither team has created anything of note from open play. 2 pens, 2 goals coming from freekicks with poor keeping.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

No foul on Bobby then??? Ffs shit ref

 

[mark82]

Why didn’t Dasilva boot the ball out rather than pass to them?

Yeah, exactly. Avoidable on a number of counts. Dasilva should clear out, Thomas knows you can't throw hands up, clear handball at other end from the corner. Frustrating.

 

[pusbccfc]

Nah it was the lino telling him it was a penalty

Who also missed the push somehow.

 

[Mr Panda]

Shouldn’t be going into the break with Derby having a chance

 

[SkyblueTexan]

I actually think Simms might do well in this game if brought on

 

[Liquid Gold]

On balance it is a pen but it’s bullshit when the ref had just waived away an even more obvious handball for us a few seconds before

 

[shepardo01]

How did Zetterstrom beat BTA to that ball!!??

 

[David O'Day]

silly but it was a push

 

[EalingSB]

Absolutely clear as day the penalty, referee got it spot on. Likely got the buzz on the watch from the assistant but the correct decision.
Comedy of errors going back to the short corner from our perspective although their player didn't look ten yards away and also potentially handballed it.

 

[shmmeee]

Ahahaha Derby twats

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Rudoni, Grimes, BTA been noticeably poor this half.

I'd be tempted to bring on Raphael on the wing.

 

[Chris1987]

Never been more obvious that we need strengthening defensively.

 

[mark82]

Thought he'd given penalty on Rudoni there.

 

[Nick]

How's he stopped the game then? He was nowhere near his head.

 

[Matt smith]

Gifted them back into this.
To be fair, they look absolute dogshite - We marginally less so.

Come on that’s ridiculous

we’ve played well and I’m normally negative

 

[Hobo]

He's done the right thing clearing it down the line

He hasn't cleared it down the line though.

 

[Marty]

Thomas always doing stupid stuff, got a soft as fuck free kick on Tuesday when he's just fell over as last man. 8 mill is absolutely ridiculous money for him and he's got to go.

EMC looks good today, probably best player on the pitch so far. Their right back can't get close to him.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

I hate playing teams like this.

 

[pusbccfc]

Fucking awful refereeing. So fucking bad

 

[Mild-Mannered Janitor]

First goal was hardly gifted

Did you not see the pathetic non attempt by the keeper to save a shot just above his head, arms up and jump was all required

 

[SeshMouseSkyBlue]

Same old fake a head injury to get game stopped

 

[Jamesimus]

That head injury was from the derby playing pulling Kitching on top of him

 

[Garlana86]

I like the way the ref let it play on for ages until 4 of their players rushed him, and then he blew up.

 

[shmmeee]

Here’s the foul there?

 

[SIR ERNIE]

BTA waste of a shirt again.

 

[Nick]

Oh and rudoni looked like he was fouled in the box before the ref blew up

 

[Sick Boy]

We’ve looked decent overall. The defence absolutely needs to be strengthened though.
