    I’ve a feeling that he played attacking CM for at least part of the away defeat at MK Dons, with Osadebe and Wilson either side of him (!!!). I went to that game and remember thinking that it was men against boys in midfield and that Bobby wasn’t yet ready for the CM role in L2 games. But my memory of these things is notoriously unreliable, so I could be wrong.

    That's football. It's how you react which we did but didn't help ourselves with our first half tactics

    When you see the officals at the top level getting wrong week after week with the aid of VAR then you know why we end up with likes of Drysdale

    I don't mind the yellow if the referee deemed it to be a dive, all you can ask for from a referee is consistence and that foul by the Morecambe lad was a yellow all day long as some have said previously Drysdale went to his pocket then never produced the card.

    I think he could've produced a yellow but I don't get how that's got anything to do with consistency as they were two completely different incidents.

    How can you be other than vague if you can’t remember which match it was

    Of course they were but if yellows were shown yesterday the Morecambe player challenge was the worse of the two incidents IMO as I posted from my seat it looked a penalty.

    Exactly this, GA says you have to perform in training and says Pointon knuckles down trains hard but Oduor doesn't. Yet Oduor gets in the squad, it stinks.

    Hr played well that half. Jamie Raynor and Andy Kiwomya wax lyrical about how he was the best performing player but got taken off at half time to change the shape.

    Looked a penalty to me too mate. Cook seemed to be in mid-air when he was charged, then fell in a heap. Thought a booking was very harsh.

    It was Chapman that came on for Pointon in that game Park, after 80 mins.

    The Whoscored.com team of the week doesn't really mean a lot, it's based on stats alone. If we asked every fan at the game yesterday who was our best player I doubt many would've said Cook followed by Kelly and if asked who was the worst player out of both sides I think 99% would say Osadebe yet according to Whoscored it was Lewis.

    Funny how we see it . I saw it like GA. It wasn’t working, to make it work BP had to come off. We won that second half 2-0, so we could say the decision was vindicated?
