Fuming, absolutely fuming.
Not for the first time this season this goalkeeper has made a mistake that’s cost us a point. Up until now he has had my backing, I happen to believe he is a very good shot stopper and at times this season he has won us points but today’s the final straw for me. In a game in which we more than deserved a point (I’m also sick and tired of saying that this season) he’s mistake has cost us what could be a vital point come the end of the season. I mean what is he even trying to do? If you think the balls gone out fine, tip the ball over the crossbar and then argue about the resulting corner. You don’t do what he done, gift them a goal and hope that appealing to football league officials who don’t get much right to begin with will get the goal overturned. It’s absolute basic stuff, it really is. What I will say though is the abuse I’m seeing on Twitter and Facebook needs to stop, by all means question the mistake whatever but don’t attack the man himself.
On the game, they edged the first half.. we edged the second. A threat within the final third though was once again lacking, here’s hoping Ranger will be the saviour as many seem to think he will be. A word on the referee though, surely common sense dictates that a 6ft 7 central defender built like a brick **** house is going down far to easily when our 5ft nothing centre forward goes near him. It happened time after time.
Luckily for us Barrow lost again today, they seem to be in a real bad patch of form.. long may that continue.
