One thing I would say in an otherwise excellent report is that we play to a different set of refereeing rules. McCallum will be penalised for taking time to throw the ball into play unlike our opponents.
I still haven't got over how we were a goal ahead at Middlesbrough with 10 men and the ref played 11 minutes of stoppage time hoping for a Boro leveller. No ref has ever given us such generous time when we are a goal down and the opposition has indulged in blatant time wasting. |  | | |

great stuff Clive as per...
point well made about Chair; but also interesting to see him state his disappointment in himself the previous couple of games post match... another apparently decent young kid who we should enjoy while we can; not berate when stuff doesn't quite come off for him. |  | | |

So true, I certainly wouldn't want a load of people going on Twitter to say how badly I did with my last client. It would totally destroy my confidence if it kept happening.
Different if I said it about myself.
I love the fact that they all want to do well so much. It's so different to the Redknapp and Hughes years. | | | |

As ever it's the manner of the delivery. Saying Chair didn't play very well at West Brom, culpable in the last goal, should have passed to Dykes, or whatever, is just fair comment. It's been going on in the stands, in pubs, in fanzines, on the radio, on sites like this... it's as old as the sport itself. We shouldn't just sit there and clap along with everything for fear of hurting the footballers' feelings.
Social media, and Twitter in particular, has done two things. Firstly, it encourages a race to the bottom. Who can say the most ridiculous, aggressive, OTT thing? Chair didn't play very well at West Brom becomes Chair's sht, Chair's always been overrated, Chair needs to fck off, Chair's a sht cnt. And second, people feel the need to copy players into their hot takes. If Dave Thomas says Chair didn't play very well at West Brom in AKUTRs, or Joe Hylton says Chair didn't play very well at West Brom in the Crown, Chair's not going to hear or see that, unless he actually goes out of his way to find it in which case it's on him. On Twitter and Instagram, people copy the player into the post, so that's piped straight into his phone for him to see, possibly the first thing he sees when he picks his phone up in the dressing room or on the bus afterwards, already feeling pretty sht about his night.
I'm sure to some players it's water off a duck's back, part and parcel of being a very well paid sportsman. But if you're not that naturally confident and sure sort of personality, or you're going through a bit of a loss of form generally, or you've got sht going on at home, the kindest thing you can say about stuff like that is it's not going to help is it? Believe me, having even just one person coming after you on there, waking up in the night and checking the time on your phone only to see the dreaded notification of another barb coming your way, is a disconcerting and unpleasant experience. | | | |

Big win against Birmingham, always thought we had the better of them in the terrible conditions. Chair was really on it and good all round team performance. Are the floodlights being dulled, in both this and the Everton game the lights do not seem very bright, it might just be my perception. |  | | |

Agree with Clive in this and have seen the reaction from Austin and his wife to a few people doing the same to him, he comes across hugely confident but even for him that criticism directly aimed at him seems to annoy/upset/frustrate him
For what it's worth I still think barbet is more at fault for that 2nd West brom goal, plays a daft pass and sprints forward leaving Chair with nowhere to go |  | | |

Good report.
No idea why people in the last year or so have started getting so worked up about player ratings. Just read and enjoy. |  |

totally agree with all of that; chatting post game and general comments about performances is nothing that the players don't do themselves and part of supporting and watching football.
probably why I never really follow twitter, insta etc (apart from being an old git) is exactly what you have stated as the actions of the plebs that think having a passing interest gives them the right to spout off directly in such excessive and abusive terms
I'm sticking to pub chat and this place | | | |

The fan votes on here only match your ratings in two cases - Dunne with 7 and Dykes with 6.
Can you not introduce decimal points to be more accurate? In my opinion Ball was a clear 6.3 on Tuesday and Austin a 5.8. |  |
