    I just wish we would learn how to defend set pieces. Big problem last year. Big problem this year. Aren't there any "specialist" coaches out there we can hire as an assistant to at least get us proficient at such defending? Or is it simply a matter of "whoever wants it worse?" Just watched the highlights, seems like we had several chances to win this one. Don't know if they had as many or more or not, but we definitley did. I keep waiting for someone to break out, either Fofana, or McCormack, or Woodrow or SOMEBODY, and go on a scoring streak. And I'd really like to know what's going on with Ruiz. Hurt? Attitude? Form? Miscreant? We paid £11 to get him, who knows how much to play. The least the club can do is explain his absence from the first team, unless it's very personal, i.e., health related, bereavement, etc. If not, WTH?
    And aren't there minimum standards for pitch condition? At this level, there should be. If there are, they aren't stringent enough.

    (Oops, I'm being negative again. Sorry Don).

    I'll gladly take any points we can get! (preferably plural).

    COYW!

    Back in the 60s and 70s, that's what pitches looked like at places like Anfield and Old Trafford in March.

    Thanks for the video, Micah. I can see why GJ was confused on our goal. I'm sure he was ready to shout "penalty" when the play continued.

    Oh, and Jump, as I said before on this thread, GJ said that Ruiz had a back problem and he was held back from this match in hopes he might be able to play on Wednesday.

    I think that video was from the 60's and 70's. :)

    The video from the away matches has been poor all season. But it's better than nothing, I guess...
