I've seen Edwards do the challenge a few times, its one of those when defender sees a chance to get away with a fly kick, unfortunately Halliday did his cry baby for the benefit of VAR, was a needless or reckless challenge at best. I can't see us winning an appeal. It was certainly not worse than Ryan Jacks as pointed out, the big thing for me was the pen claim before ht, I'm assuming that was looked at, I've not seen a replay, that's what I'd have been asking.
We are so soft poor though. First goal yesterday was very similar to Nisbets late equaliser, loads of Tangerine shirts around him, only one guy going to block, bit unlucky for Niskanen tbf. Second is feeble from Levitt, and the keeper, I was wondering if I was being too harsh, it's a decent finish, and certainly not a goalkeeping howler, but I just think a better quality keeper saves that, our keeper is average. Third goal, Djoum efforts at fouling/tackling feeble, keeper makes a t1t of himself, great finish tbf. I wonder if a defensive sitting midfielder would have stopped those goals, prevented the space, or got the fouls in. You can also add on top of that our misses at just before ht to give us a 2-0 lead.
You can add to that we have at team of ageing, injury prone and unfit players who struggle to last 90 mins - Djoum, Sibbald, Middleton, Fletcher, Pawlett, but we don't seem to have a great plan for that beyond swapping Sibbald and Djoum. You can almost replace your whole midfield and attack with 5 subs!
