Morizio Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 1 hour ago, JimmyRiddle said: I thought exactly the same, it was DOGSO. But apparently this is the law from FA website. 'The goalkeeper has the same restrictions on handling the ball as any other player outside the penalty area. If the goalkeeper handles the ball inside their penalty area when not permitted to do so, an indirect free kick is awarded but there is no disciplinary sanction.' Which is mental as means they could literally scoop the ball off the line from a miss hit back pass and all that is awarded is a indirect free kick. Seems odd rule. Anyway, we won regardless! COYWM Is the referee to be congratulated on his knowledge of the laws and interpreting them correctly with an instantaneous decision!

Site Supporter Cheese Posted August 21, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2021 There was a move towards the end of the game when MJ got brought down in the middle of the park but the ref ignored it. He got up and wiped 2 Oxford players out from behind absolutely nowhere near the ball. 😁 Fucking love him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Cheese Posted August 21, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) Took both kids with me today for the first time. I've took the lad a few times, but daughter's never been interested before. Ticket office were ace letting me move my season ticket so we could all sit together at no extra charge. They both want one now. Chuffed to fuck. 🙂 This is how you breed new fans. Edited August 21, 2021 by Cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dapo unplayable at times and didn't get the protection from the officials and as for MJ, brilliant. I was worried about MJ stepping up a league, but he actually looks better in L1, he's even getting forward and not always looking to pass backwards. Dixon, improving quickly. Not stuck on his line and a couple of good takes. Dixon makes every shot save look incredibly comfortable and right at him. I’m starting to think work goes into this rather than players always shooting straight at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how fast things change in football He was being questioned not 2 weeks ago 😂 Anyway not sure I agree sir, thought our GKs were always decent even on our downward spiral, Al Habsi, Bogdan, Alnwick, Howard. Matthews and Amos were a bit dodgy, granted. Having said that I think Dixon has improved with each game he’s played. Not made any worldie saves but his distribution is infinitely better than Gilks and doesn’t have the meltiness of Crellin. Also… he’s a catcher not a puncher of crosses which I love! Got caught in no man’s land for their goal but I’ll let him off 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted August 22, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2021 Thing with keepers, it takes a while to get confidence in them because you want them doing very little in a game. Evatt knew he dropped a bollock with Crellin, he wasn’t making the same mistake this season. Dixon will be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got caught in no man’s land for their goal but I’ll let him off 😃 Andy Lonerghan was very reliable and capable in my opinion. Matthews pulled off save after save game after game when we were regularly under the cosh, again just opinions but I never understood the criticism compared to say Amos who let in every long range shot. I'm sure it was the 2 goals at Wigan and Wycombe that fans remember against Matthews, but maybe I've forgotten a load of dropped crosses etc. Too early to judge Dixon in terms of shot stopping, hardly tested yet.

DomRepWanderer Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Sat on half way line, their mon definitely offside, didn't see the handball mind until later, changing seats to east stand upper big mistake, apparently calling opposition players cheating cunts is frowned upon up there.

He looked steady the past 2 matches, though Santos was giving him daggers after yesterday's goal. But, agreed, catching where possible rather than blocking or a limp punch gets my vote every time.

It’s alright away from the middle. We tried it in the middle once and there’s some right snooty fuckers. I’m to the left level with 18 yard line. Spotted that handball straight away. The far left of the stand is becoming known as spice corner. State of some of them lot 😮 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Take Hunt Off Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 19 hours ago, Rudy said: I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say there will be games where MJ & Lee will play with Sheehan pushed forward to protect the back forward Might not be Wigan in the cup or next week but it’ll happen Probably a wise move against some of the better teams .Sheehan is no ball winner but looks the part as a creator. Sarcevic ditto but better defensively although not as quick to see danger as Lee & MJ .MJ was excellent again yesterday but we got stretched out too much & it was hard for him to cover all the spaces. In some ways we got away with it yesterday despite the fantastic win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
