Viking Saint

FFS!!!!!!! 2-2

Gunn has to take the blame there, shocking pass to give away that throw-in

Seriously soft goal to concede

Great strike!!!

Team to play Southampton: Kepa, Alonso, Rudiger, Luiz, Azpilicueta, Kante, Jorginho, Barkley, Hazard, Willian, Morata Subs: Caballero, Fabregas, Loftus-Cheek, Zappacosta, Christensen, Emerson, Ampadu

A bit of rationality wouldn't go amiss. RH has been in post for weeks and has to undo and rebuild the shambles the club has been for the last 3-4 years of p*ss-poor managerial appointments, ineptitude beyond belief in the transfer market and almost total disconnect between club and fanbase. This will take time, investment and support. As fans, we can provide one, allow for one and hope for the third. Personally, I feel 100% more optimistic now than in a long time that we have the right manager to start the rebuild process. We had six points and six goals in two games, misfired against WHU and were playing one of the best teams in Europe today with the same squad as before, plus 4 players from our Academy starting. At 1-1, if the ref had the bottle to give the penalty, it could've been a different game. The mess we're in is not going to be undone overnight.

Hope he shapes up better than our last two Norwegian recruits......

Was he even on the pitch today???

Trying to work out the camera angle. Might be at the City fans....

Did Austin just stick two fingers up to the crowd there??

watched it a few times. That happens to any player in the top 6 and it's a penalty

thanks

stream anyone??

anyone got a stream??

and there it is

anyone got a stream??

Source or just wishful thinking??

I'd laugh if I wasn't so f*&ked off with the c&ut. Why do Premiership referees not pick this up? It's not like it's without precedent.

Bearing mind what we've got, who would you have rotated? and how does this stack up against having a settled side?

This. Forget balance of play, you play the breaks you get. There's a cast-iron penalty for us, which if given, makes it unlikely for them to score, hence 2-1. As for Carroll, f&*k me, if ever there was a case of a referee utterly bottling it on two occasions, that was it. Disgraceful lack of competence.

Cedric can't cross a road, let alone a ball, so what's the alternative?? Stephens at RB??

**** IT

Fair call. The second one wasn't even in the same post code as the ball

FFS

straight out of the coaching manual
