Division Three Comp

[HeathDavisSpeed]

As far as I can figure out:

* Yes, because the Colchester striker was onside
* No, because the referee blew his whistle, which stops the game

Ultimately, correct decision to disallow goal BUT monumental howler to blow whistle by accident in the first place...

Thanks Neil. I'd like to think that it could be an important point/3 points to Charlton come the end of the season, but the Us always tend to collapse in the last 10 games and end up safely ensconced in mid-table obscurity. Mind you, it could be an important extra 2 points for Charlton.

And that prick from Sky Sports was complaining about a woman linesman who made the right decision... Wonder what he'd make of the ref from this match!

 

[Pothas]

Thank **** for that.

The old sacking the manager and winning the next game trick worked nicely, Plymouth were fairly awful it must be said but we actually played well especially in the second half. Weston was so much better than he has been in recent weeks, he is actually in danger of looking like a good player when he produces that sort of form.

Well done Pothas and Brentford, you deserved it tonight. Our basic defending is just ****ing poor, really don't know what's happened this season, desolate.

Did we look like a side that could play some semblance of Football? If so then maybe Saturday was not just a fluke.

It may be the paint trophy but a trip to Wembley is still a trip to Wembley.

Yeah, you did okay, you got a bit nervous at the end, and seemed to want to corner-stick it, rather then go for the kill, with all the space we were leaving. Weston hit in two great balls, but no marking. Whilst you were very solid in defense.

It's freezing in Plymouth today, apparently it's -10

I cannot believe how long it has taken me to get that.

Anyway - cold, misty, and sparsely attended (150?) - but the first half was an absolute cracker: 2-2 and good flowing attacking football from both sides (+ crap defence). No idea who's going to prevail.

Also, 150 Grecians making infinitely more noise than 5000 Cumbrians.

Yep, another fighting point on our travels. If we could go on a nice run at home, who knows? Yet I'm kind of accepting of a boring finish to the season for once.

Still all to play for here though, at the top anyway.

Relying on the home banker against Tranmere and Brentford slipping up against either Colchester or Hartlepool to hand us the tittle.

In aid of taking the piss out of Corrin:

Exhibit A: Tranmere's away following at Brunton Park - 175
Exhibit B: Exeter's away following at Brunton Park - 186
