I mean, the shot goes straight across the box to tolaj and that player is directly in the line of sight to tolaj, so clearly interfering/obstructing in Peretz's ability to save the shot.

Tolaj was onside, but pretty sure this guy in front of Peretz is obstructing his view / interfering. He's a poor referee tbh - its also laughable that he's born in bristol and a former player of both bristol clubs - and yet he's refereeing one of them... that just shouldn't happen 😅😂 (i'm aware that he's not at fault for their goal, merely commenting on the position it puts him in as a ref).

Well... what a lovely Saturday

25min in to this west ham Wrexham game, and Wrexham are awful... West ham aren't even having to try to get at their goal. Woeful stuff from the dragons, no threat and can't defend.

I mean, he absolutely is. He should be an automatic starter imo. The question is who will get dropped to let JWP start because Downes is playing very well alongside him and i think Jander will struggle to get back in to that pairing. Its a great problem to have though - because assuming Jander gets back to his best, we then have Azaz, JWP, Downes, and Jander for the central 3 midfield spots - and thats 4 of the best CMs in the league no questions asked.

Boro appealing desperatley to have him kicked out and Wankshear given the award.

We'll beat them at home this season, no questions. This team is on a mission.

This will always be the case unless we are ourselves top. Which we essentially were after Swansea. All we can do is try to stay top few in the form table - the points will sort themselves out then.

I agree. I am not convinced there are stand out teams so far... although i think the most likely 2 are ourselves and west ham. The 8 team play offs should also keep the league competitive and make it hard to pick up soft points near the end of the season - will impact automatics and relegation places imho. (I'd be worried if i was a shit team this season as so often they put together a nice little run vs sides that have nothing to play for and stay up as a result... not sure that will be the case this season).

A few of the City fans i know reckon they can't defend either. I reckon this will be something like 2-2 (given they are a bogey side for us). The -4points remains an issue for us i think as we're constantly playing a game of catch up (and when we're not winning it adds pressure mentally).

Did Bolton pay us for him? Haven't seen a transfer fee reported anywhere.

Maybe, but we can have them regardless. The Tonda train rolls onwards...

https://fmttmboro.com/index.php?threads/tonda-eckert-news.83872/page-31 Still obsessed and delusional (they have more recent posts on this than we do...), but also starting to realise we aren't going away. Will love it if we torpedo their season.

That went about as well as expected, glad to see Tonda has started reading my posts and taking note 😌 In all seriousness though, good performance from us. Made Swansea look like the rapid press merchants they are, didn't really give them much outside of a sloppy penalty. Let them blow themselves out and punished the mistakes as they came. Wasteful if anything. I hugely dislike this passing back to Peretz, especially with wood. They don't have the first touch or passing to do it - it's an accident waiting to happen and indirectly led to the penalty in this one as well. Great again by Larin, azaz, and Scienza. Onwards and upwards though!

Without the 4 point deduction, we'd currently be top. And yet we've had some fans calling for Eckert to go on social media etc. 🤣😆
