Maybe just managing minutes/energy for Sercs?

Only problem is there isn't any goals in Bonds and Kinsella . Hope they prove me wrong. Maybe go for it later if nil nil.

Looks like being a scrappy one, not helped by the conditions.

Freestone just loves a moronic booking. No need to do that in the Blackpool half with less than 20 mins played.

Tough, tight game but we have been just about the better team. No space in the midfield at all, everyone pressing everyone. Very surprised (not) that the ref has managed to give us 2 yellows but none to Blackpool for a couple of late challenges, when the Taylor one barely seemed like a free kick from where I am, let alone a yellow, and Freestone's was for intent at a late tackle, as he barely made any contact. Feel like Freestone has got a second yellow in him, especially with this ref.

Say it again, we might get another from one of them.

Don't think there was a shot until about the 25th minute. At half time it's 7 shots to 0 in our favour. 3 on target.

Yep. 6 red and 90 yellow this season so far (the ref, not Lewis).

They milked his body slam at the end of the half so he’s likely a foul away from a second yellow.

And Ferry is booked for a good tackle. What an absolute cretin this referee us.

Could it be our reputation from earlier on in the season (getting reds and yellows) preceding us?

How many card for a suspension - really don't want any players out for a period of time🤔

Was Ferry's yellow for dissent? Maybe some subs soon to prevent the ref (who has made some odd decisions) sending one of our players off...

He'll get another chance this game...

Also on the plus side, the ref gave a decision for George Lloyd🤯

During the Robins Report Pod DC kept on calling him Keeno - so should we as well?
