    Whether the free kick was not taken on the exact spot is irrelevant to me in this case. As far as I am concerned no goalkeeper should get beat from a free kick from the half way line ffs!!!
    Obviously I wasn't there and have only seen a quick video of the goal, but what the hell was Wilson doing? Asleep, switched off???

    I thought we were slack at the free kick.Akpan got the ball but just dropped it and Toney picked it up and let fly.That was lack of concentration and poor game management.

    It might be the drink but I am sure I saw some grass on that field! Jeez, the way we complained about VP the last couple of years, it was pristine compared to that. lol

    That's been our achilles heel all season. We just seem to switch off. Whether from free kicks, corners, just after scoring or leading up to our just after half time. We need leaders on the pitch to make sure we remain focused and switched on at all times.

    We're just too nice at the moment.

    I agree in principle with your post but you can’t blame Akpan for Toney’s goal. Wilson clearly was half asleep when Toney hit it and to be fair it was a great strike. I thought the other goals were decent assists, not a lot you could do with them.

    Said we should have gone for him in the summer. Was told he was over rated.

    Good for this level. Maybe not championship but he gets goals

    Toney’s Goal was cheeky, genius and lucky in equal amounts but Akpan was nieve and the ref p*ss poor to let him take it with the ball moving right in front of him. We need to make our own luck tho!

    Rest the better ones, there's no way past Middlesbrough in the next round with this crock of shite. I'd rather focus on the season ahead as in the long run financially we need to be in this league. Imo Payne won't be here for the 3rd round so let's use him to try and get as many points in the league as possible

    Winning breeds winning. Gotta go for it imo. Especially with it being a side in the same division. If we win this, sends a bit of a message to those around us in the same league.
    Talking of fringe squads. Whats happened to that lad who what got from Barnsley - Tom someone. Striker. Scored a few pre season.

    Full strength. We need to get that winning feeling. Doesn’t matter what the competition is, a win will be a boost and hopefully keep us moving in the right direction after a couple of away draws.

    Wilson has been a laughing stock at the other clubs he’s been at. Baffled at the decision to play him.
