nill all. That's pretty shit. They attacked more. Espech after half time. Contest that if you want (you did, we never created more than they did and we never looked like we were gonna apart from the odd break). Put the blue-tinted glasses down. We may well do them at the swamp, but tonight, at our ground where we had the choice to, we let it go begging.WNRH said:BillyShears said:They played better than us, with worse players. I'm not sure how that can be classed as a victory or even a point gained. I'm reading the excuses in this thread, and the only two valid ones seem to be "look at the bigger picture - we're still comfortably 4th", and Carlos didn't seem fit...beyond that, we performed no better than we did in the corresponding fixture last season. What cost us last season wasn't just losing to Spurs, but it was the insipid display's against United, Arsenal, Liverpool, et al where we showed absolutely not enough desire nor enough guile to beat them. Just as we showed tonight.
I accept completely that it's good enough for the vast majority. I'm not asking you to join me in my opinions.
Tell me how many chances they created and then tell me how many chances we created and then tell me who was the side that attacked more. Neither side did (allthough we created more and had the better chances), it was 11 men behind the ball on both teams, a stalemate, a chess match, both teams were equally defensive and both had the same mission to come out of the game without a loss.
