    Not when you are relying on the wireless for commentary, having to put up with listening to Leeds thrashing WBA whilst they sort their link out at VP

    Thought that foul on Hornby deserved a yellow at least.

    Well the first half beer was okay, but l think something a little stronger for the second half. What is everybody else on?

    All in all decent half, neither side really threatening to win it. Novak needs to stay further up and more central cos he just isn't mobile enough to get involved in the build and lead the line, need them smart touches n hold up where it can hurt them more.

    Maybe because he's playing left CB as a right footer so isn't comfortable clearing with his left peg? Same reason Wood often passes back if he gets parallel with the touchline, because he doesn't want to play a square or forward pass with his right.

    Probably scraped it in that half. Some nice combinations in midfield but no cutting edge.

    I remember being stuck on the special for hours outside Boothferry Park because someone kept pulling the emergency cord. Spent and lost a fortune buying Patsy’s scratch cards.

    Either Novak needs to camp himself in the 6 yard box or other need to join him. We've had 3 balls fly in there in the first half with no one waiting for them. Could easily have been 1 up at least.

    Amazing how many professional footballers are so poor on their less favoured foot.
