Maybe the 4th official had told the ref Igor was being a **** and Dias shouldn’t have been booked for complaining for one of several free kicks given against him…pretty sure they chat about incidents at half time amongst themselves.

You are correct. We now have a big keeper who is happy to take responsibility on crosses and corners and punch the ball. Unfortunately by virtue of the fact all our players defend corners so deep the ball ends up at an opponent’s feet with none of ours anywhere near him which means he has loads...

I think the new north stand needs to be the home stand and be called “the wonder wall “
