Whitey Grandad

Not as good as we needed but not actually shite. However, why keep harping on about him? I see that McCarthy doesn't get a mention. Nor should he.

As things stand we're eight points behind Millwall and Ipswich (who have a game in hand) and ten points behind Middlesbrough and we have eight games to play. Can't see it myself but this is one hell of a run that we're having.

Peretz is just what we needed. He has a habit of being in the right place to save snapshots that are fired at him. Has a tendency to spill the occasional shot though but usually makes amends for it. One brainfart last night where he passed to a team member in our own crowded penalty area. Luckily the opposition were even more surprised that we were. Worth holding on to. I won't comment on Baz at the moment for the reasons that I gave in an earlier post. He's injured, he's not even at the club and I doubt that we shall see him here again. Why bring up his name?

'Goal' was a comfortable offside. Edozie threw himself to the ground.

It's impossible to put a figure on it. A goalkeeper is just one part of a team.

It was 7 minutes before Peretz decided to go down and make it even longer. He wasn't particularly bad. Especially if you view his performance through neutral eyes.

Mine is over fifteen. It's starting to need more maintenance.

To be sure.

Them's the Laws.

That's my point.

Charles trod on Torp's right foot. Accidental or not it's still a foul. Maybe in future he won't get so tight on a played who's running away from goal.

I don't need to explain why they're childish. You're doing that for me.

If we'd have carried on playing five at the back not a lot different.

Better teams?

Me? He's an ok keeper hut someway short of fantastic. We got lucky today or maybe it was a reward for his positioning. Comparisons with Baz are beyond childish since a) he's injured b) on loan somewhere else and c) unlikely to be seen playing for us again. If by some miracle we do get promoted we're going to need a lot better but for now he'll do.

Great positioning

It's a lot more than that. The return of Bree and the change to a back four are more important.

No it wasn't. Torp manufactured it by sticking his leg out but his foot was trodden on.

I wasn't expecting that, to be honest.

Never in doubt 😏

Stupid time for a stupid substitution.

That could have happened even in training.

Troo dat. Technically though we could draw the cup games and go through on penalties. 😚

Old gits like me. I fully understand those who prefer to stand and indeed there once was a time when I would have been in amongst them but the ravages of time have taken their toll on my knees. That's why I am reluctant to go to away games unless I can be assured of a seat. And a view to go with it.

Saka will be shaking in his boots. Shaking Saka. It has a ring to it.
