Some comments during the match from CFCnet

12 mins in:
"Grant has put in a few good tackles already."

14 mins:
"Corner set piece nobody at the posts ....GOAL. When will that stubborn Brazilian f*** head learn ?"

On half an hourish:
""you're getting sacked in the morning" funny stuff "

After about 35 mins:
"This is eleven League One players outplaying 11 World Class Players in every department, everywhere on the pitch. It's the difference between footballers playing for the love of the game and players wishing they were in their hot tubs sh*gging their WAGs. Disgraceful. If I were to point my finger at one or two specific players, and it pains me to write this, but it's Alex and Lampard."

On 37 mins:
"See that, the lads in blue? That's how you defend a bloody corner. Excellent defending."
"So the opposition goalie is fantastic."

After 45 min:
"Lampard has a spaz attack." :O

Half Time:
"1st half Honours pretty even methinks... not a compliment."

Joe Cole's injury:
"Watch the replay. Did he get struck by invisible lightning? I don't get it."


Incidentally, don't know if anyone saw it, but several of them are also saying there was an incident right at the final whistle when Di Santo threw Barrett to the floor, and not in an affectionate way?

If it's the one I saw on TV it was just as the final whistle went near our corner flag and it looked very innocuous to me. Don't think there was any malice intended.

I saw it. Handbags, but Di Santo did not immediately shake hands. But a few minutes later he came back to the same corner, took his shirt off and gave it to a Southend fan.

Kept his gloves on though. :)

Not sure where 35 mins is coming from but fiar enough. Alex was probably the architect of our goal. Or Scolari. It was made in Brazil one way or another.
