Jesus wept. Charles going down so often that the refs are actively penalising him for any 50-50.

Did the ref have some money on early bookings? Strange that he gave out so many early on and hasn't given out anything similar throughout the match.

Iredale on for Williams, Jerome on for Vic. Looks like we're shutting up shop.

Our defensive LWB and our defensive striker coming on.

Why's Jerome been booked?

FFS. 1-1.

Guilt edged chance being missed and their long shot going in just as we go defensive.

How often is Yiadom gonna get away with fouling before he gets a yellow. That's at least four. Ah there ya go.

It's simple Bolton foul free kick and yellow card, reading foul free kick.

Yeah, displays like today are why we aren't going up automatically.

Certainly feels like that.

Surely Charles is coming off to fully cement our draw. FFS, we really need another striker we can rely on.

This game feels like one of those where we lose 3-1, after being sucker punched desperately trying to get back into the game we should've killed off ages ago.

The best teams get wins when playing badly. This second half we've played badly....



FKING knew it.

Can't win when playing with nine men. Putting Jerome up top alongside N'lundulu just kills us off in terms of an attacking threat.

Pressed so far into our own half here that we have no threat up top. 3 points dropped.

All on Evatt this. You simply cannot take Charles and Victor off when we are not comfortably ahead because what comes on is like giving the opposition an extra man. He signed them. He’s responsible. But they are pub players. We all could see it. You only need eyes.

In January we need to ship Jerome and Nlundulu out. Talk of sell on value is ridiculous. We will have to pay someone to take them. Some desperate non league side if we are lucky might chip a couple of hundred quid off for us. Then we will need to sign a genuine quality striker for this level.
