    Why?
    It doesn’t matter what the score is or what minute of the game, the decision should always be the correct one.
    Are you saying it’s a ‘big call’ to send off a player straight from the kick off if a serious foul is committed?

    If Vernan hadnt have won that penalty then it would be fair to say Angols appalling finishing would have cost us 2pts.

    By the same token, yesterday he won us 3pts so well done. He really does need to improve in front of goal though. Yesterday he was extremely lucky due to poor goalkeeping.

    Id like to see Vernan start against Stevenage. Gilliead in the middle. Angol on the left. I dont know what Callum Cooke offers as a number 10.

    Officially 17k but reality about 13k. There’s no way there were 17000 people inside the stadium yesterday

    Does it make my point any different?

    The crowd size is somewhat irrelevant give or take the taxman.

    Not sure which game you were watching. As well as scoring both goals, Angol also won us the penalty, not Vernam.

    Where do we lack quality? What positions and what element of quality would those players bring? What would they do that would show they are of quality?

    Cooke isn’t a 10, what’s that got to do with the price of fish?

    Your point was related to the crowd size and the nerves Angol would have suffered so yes the crowd is relevant because if it was played with no fans you’re suggesting Angol wouldn’t have been nervous.

    True story. Was drunk.

    Angol gets credit from me for yesterday - just saying his finishing needs to improve.

    Ignore him, he's too busy watching the Morecambe score to see if Stockton has scored rather than actually watching the game he's commenting on

    Bad logic one doesn't apply because the other does.

    Imagine how the penalty taker must feel in a major tournament final.

    Of course it's relevant, @Kevin1954@Kevin1954, otherwise why publish it? You seem to want to monopolise this forum by replying to as many posts as you can. Unfortunately, most of your posts are "irrelevant". Do yourself a favour. Take a break

    Dont be silly, do you want me to rewrite it and say 13k instead of 17k. The content will be the same but dont try and make out I’m wrong because I stated the wrong crowd size (in your opinion).

    When I decide to do so, you will be the first to know.

    You’re wrong unless you can prove that Angol was more nervous due to crowd size than he would have been with no crowd.
