Terrible refereeing decision, but you take that out of the equation and it’s another game where a lack of composure at both ends of the pitch has resulted in another loss. We had enough of the game to have taken a point, but in the end their goalkeeper hasn’t really made a save.
A lot is made of our inability to defend free-kicks and corners, but we give away so many that it’s little wonder we eventually concede from one. In the first 30 minutes we gave away around about 10 free-kicks or corners, and didn’t defend them particularly badly until they scored. I don’t really see many other teams giving away so many stupid set-pieces.
I know it sounds negative but every bit of momentum seems to be against us at the minute. We lose no matter what, we don’t get a referee’s decision even when it’s as blatant as can be, we’re sitting at the whim of a panel that, if the rest of the league is owt to go by, will be desperate to send us to the Guillotine. It’s starting to feel horribly like a relegation season, with Luton doing just enough and us not quite getting there.
It’ll be a dogfight next week and we’ll get nothing. The refs have taken offence to how shit they’ve been in our games and are only going to get worse from here.
