It’s also not one moment, one player, one game.

It’s one player, two moments, two games, both identical scenarios in the same short season.

The only difference is we lost this game - but we arguably deserved to lose both.

It’s the lack of learning that’s so indefensible

I think many people underestimate how difficult it is to keep the ball for 3 minutes in those circumstances without infringing or making an error. I'm curious, how early would people advocate "sticking it up the jumper" for when defending a slim lead? 5 minutes? 10 minutes? How early do y...

The biggest problem for me was sat in the stands with 20 minutes to go you could FEEL it was going to happen - to the point I was praying for a kickable penalty to settle nerves.

The number of penalties we gave away in the last 20 is inexcusable.

Let’s not forget Newcastle away. Same player. Same time. Same tactic.

You cannot lose if you have the ball. End of.

Sorry but I think they have had a good day.

We've cost ourselves here. Our downfall cannot always be some other factor than our own.
