Dare I say this is just highlighting the inefficiency in our final third play?

Prior to this game i'd say our problem was creating chances. Not the case in this match. Lovely opportunities, but alas no goals.

Stats paint an interesting picture.

There's been quite a few shots there that have been blocked that would've been on target, not sure how they're getting registered. I can think of at least Dapo's effort (deflected over the bar at close range), Aimson's 2nd effort (disallowed Charles goal) and Jones' effort (saved).

Probably stopped by last man, keeper or blocked on the line.

Charles is on another level tonight. That level being 8 cups in the new kettle.

Is the new kettle a Boris Johnson living crisis busting one?

I suspect he's not got a net busting kettle that's for sure.

In my defence I had no say in the purchase of said kettle. The Chairwoman of the Sonic house bought it without consulting me :cry:

Dion, stop trying to head the ball. It's not working for you.

Dapo, that wasn't the best.

Well that must be the reason!


Dion needs bringing off here. Clearly not his night, good movement just some bad finishing.

Is that a penalty?

Nevermind. Got it on mute.

Dapo trying to smash it in an open net. Aye.

Well played Kachunga there. Again we don't hit the target.

Hope Kachunga's OK.

Think the referee is playing school yard rules.

That was a handball in the area, play on.

I'll go and see if putting the kettle on works this time.
