You also have to look at the quality Robins has at his disposal, compared to the other top teams in our league and then look at the quality Southgate has at his disposal.

No comparison to be found.

We lost to Luton Town in the play-off final with two of the best players in Championship history in our team. No-one ever blames Robins for that loss (as they shouldn’t seeing as it was final and they’re always cagey games), it’s all on Dabo for missing a pen that wouldn’t have even won us the game anyway.

But they didn’t have £35 million of talent in the whole squad let alone in just 2 players

How much of that can be accounted for by the fact we didn’t have anywhere to play for the first month of the season? From when we drew with them on 11th Feb to the end of the season we had an identical record of W8 D8 L1.

Like the idea of England playing their wingbacks in midfield etc , problem is would Southgate do that in tournament football ?

Not saying it is a pen but just because the contact isn't on the legs Don doesn't mean it can't be a pen

he seems to think that as it's upper body contact it can't be a pen?

He's such a paint by numbers co-commentator. Say what you see and don't offend anyone. Doesn't need to give deep tactical insight or anything but he offers nothing.

I notice Maguire's passing up to usual standard if it's more than 5 yards.

Be ironic to punish the young lad for a soft as shit pen when letting the ACTUAL penalty by maguire go

I can't believe they're going to VAR this one for a pen , but not the Maguire one. He had no clue he was there.
