10 minutes of pure domination, other than a shocking mistake for their goal.

FGR were only shown twice in attack. One for the goal and the other for one shot right at the end.

Are these highlights a fair reflection of the game?

Yes, these highlights came from FGR. No source from CTFC.

Yes. You definitely shaded it tbf, especially second half when we lost Osbourne and Traore was clearly struggling.

That meant our midfield couldn't get hold of it and dominate possession like we usually do, we aren't suited to a long ball scrap. Ball kept coming back.

Quite a concession by his standards. Must be the first negative thing about FGR he has ever acknowledged.

If not long punt forward why did Cooper leave 4 up front for our corners ?

To stop us sending so many forward. That is why I hate bringing everyone back for a corner as it carte blanche for the oppo to send all but one bloke up.

All this c!#p about us being a long ball team is starting to baffle me. We can play probably 20 teams in this league off the park by passing through them. Wasn't it FGR that kept sending the ball into the stratosphere? A couple of times I nearly lost sight of the ball, it went so high. A believe our goal came from FGR smashing it high but not very far, Sellars controlling it beautifully and Wright slicing a ball throught the defence from Eisa to slot home. And their goal came from...oh yeah, a long punt downfield.

Agreed. Just lazy criticism.

Just shaded it. Wow, that's awfully good of you.

The highlights tell the story, we were wasteful, had we won 4-1 no one could have complained.
