Every time I see that 2nd goal the more I think there’s more to these terrible decisions than useless officials.

Firpo our best defender today so far, his positioning has been excellent and clever passing out for the most part ..

I'd like to see James a little less selfish, marked him down for wrong decision twice

How do we know he’s even fully paying attention.
Should be a camera on him.

Haha its crazy, not a prem starter but very few championship strikers are..... Top tier for this level though, his physicality aggression and pace to both hold up the ball and stretch cb's would add so much to our attack.

Bit like Bamford of a few years ago but with better finishing.

Third incorrect call ruling out a goal for us from that linesman this season apparently
