Well that was piss poor, wasn't it?
We were out muscled throughout the game. Vokes particularly on Stankovic, whose hero status didn't last long following his man of the match display the other day. We couldn't deal with high balls and when one took a deflection and got a wicked spin on it, Simpson made a hash of it and we were one down.
But after half time, we were quite undeservedly in the lead and should've had the capability to see the rest of the match through. Instead, the inspirational Tyreese Campbell took over. What a player he looks. He gave young Jaden the run around all day and when Kamil made a complete mess of coming out to pinch, Campbell made a superb lob into the back of the net and we were deservedly behind again.
Smoke look a decent team, definitely in a false position, but defensively they look as bad as we did today. We should've done better but we didn't and that's that. The other two goals were just icing on the cake for them as we tried in vain to get back in.
What's worrying now is the embarrassment of having to have the warning message read out during the second half for discriminatory chanting. We'll definitely be getting a fine for that and the excuse that McLean was winding the Town fans up won't wash at all with the authorities. I mean, wtf do Town fans think chanting "F**k the IRA" is going to do? You just can't do shit like that nowadays. Even if you could, what bloody good does it do, other than get the opposition to play better. I know he's an arsehole, but he has his opinions on things and should be respected for that. Just because the Prime Minister, the most powerful man in the country, can get away with being a f**king racist tw*t, doesn't mean you can replicate his actions in a football stand.
So let's hope this doesn't go any further, but I think there will be recriminations.
