      Having watched it back he has 15 seconds from the ball going out of play to the ball being thrown back in. Ample time to grab a drink and he should of course be drinking it whilst facing the play.

      Absolutely no defence for it. And yes, some are still blaming Naismith.

        We seem to get sucked into playing hoofball. There was far more movement off the ball yesterday and players had options to pass to. That normally doesn’t happen and we end up just lumping it to Moore. The goal on Saturday showed what we can do when we knock it around and move.

        Moore has to play for me with Windass, Lowe and Pilkington behind him when all fit.

            Not sure they do, but if they do I’d expect Latics also do that.

            Anyway….I will have 9784 for Saturday

                The goons attendance counters must have been out tonight. 6000 at best.

                Season ticket holders are counted on the attendance even if they don’t turn up. So yes, there may only have been 6-7000 in the ground, but with 8000 season ticket holders added to the 1400 or so WBA fans, I think 9444 was about right.[/quote]

                Funny how that method gets slated when the rugby do it and they’re accused of making up attendances.

                  Just checked the ruling as I didn’t know whether or not they had to touch it with it being an uncontested drop ball but all I can see is that opposing players must be 4m away so perhaps he is saying Morsy wasn’t? Seemed to me like he just bottled it that it had come off him and then we broke away especially after all their players (numbers 2 and 19 loved a good moan) had moaned at him.

                    Does anyone know what was wrong with the drop ball incident?

                      In all fairness the whole team played well. They played some good stuff throughout the game. The type of football I’m sure we would all be happy to see week after week.

                      Really no idea what convinced Jones to have a drink at the stage he did. WTF he was thinking God only knows.

                      And then to pick the ball up as well without knowing how it got to him. Another of the many ridiculous mistakes we continue to make.[/quote]

                      Exactly! When the ball came to him he seemed a bit confused of his whereabouts. Common sense would have said “Hmmmm! I’ll just kick it to be on the safe side.”[/quote]

                      Split second call but you’d expect that “get rid” would be the default setting

                        Just wondering how you missed the biggest moment of the game. It has been said before by posters that you may be a troll so just checking you hadn’t outed yourself.

                          Not a fan of playing players out of position unless you have to but he was superb and would deserve to stay there.

                            According to mates in west Stand he was having a drink and wasn’t watching…….if in doubt should have launched it

                            He was indeed having a drink. I dont wanna point the finger at anyone but I will,
                            Jones your a gobsh!te, taking a fookin drink while opposition attacking 25 yard out ?.
                            The last time I saw that was Casper swinging off the crossbar with his legs[/quote]

                            Absolutely.

                            Tonight sums up why we are where we are for me. Dominate a game, miss a few chances and then give away a stupid goal like that. Yes we got lucky with our goal but it was well deserved. If I could be critical of the chances we missed, Massey should really have done better with the header off the bar.

                            Naismith was superb at the back as I’ve said elsewhere and I thought Nathan Byrne was tremendous as well.

                                Left 88……late for work……but enjoyed the performance,you knob. I’ll praise where its deserved……your just a patronising prick.

                                So why did you need your mate in the west stand to tell you what happened with the goal? Simple question. Everyone in the stadium saw what happened.

                                  We did the business good style!. Knocked it around superbly, created chances won all the battles. Was great to see Richardson and Barry talking tactics throughout and not arguing with 4th official all night. If you didn’t know which team was which you would have said we was the team at the top of the table.
                                  WTF was Jones playing at for the free kick that led to their goal??.
                                  I would keep things as they are for satdy but you just know Cook will ring the changes.
                                  Well done boys and please no West Brom were shit comments.

                                  I would play a recognised CB as opposed to Naismith but that’s it.

                                  I thought Naismith was superb though.
