    No it doesn't , he walks straight off instead of wasting 2/3 minutes using both sides of the pitch and that time wouldn't have existed.

    Different times, different possession, different set ups.

    Yes it does. The maths really aren't that difficult. The amount of time played would be exactly the same. The different this that and the other is another argument and could work either way.

    We'll have to agree to disagree pal.

    Like the most of us I thought that Burnley would be out of site.
    It looked like they’d won the league, FA cup and the lottery at the end and that’s credit to us.

    Our comms had it dead right regarding the yellow cards and what the ref was going to do.

    You have to be resigned to the fact that the big clubs will get the decisions.

    Don’t go singling any of our players out for any mistakes or try and find reasons why they lost us the game. It wouldn’t be fair and they don’t deserve it.

One thing it has shown though, we might be on the ropes at the moment but we have a team capable of holding their own in this league when they want to.

    Thoughts?
    Gutted is right but what a heroic performance from the lads. I expected us to get hammered but we might even have nicked it without the red card - second booking looked very harsh. The character of the team bodes well for the rest of the season.

    Gutted indeed. The sending off was the turning point. It wasn't even a foul. He pulled out of the challenge. Fantastic performance but no points and likely to be absolutely knackered for Saturday.

    We have to make our own luck because we play against more than 11 men sometimes.
    Absolute bullschite mate,we aren't a big club just like yourselves. You lost that game due to a man being sent off and absolutely scandalous time wasting by your goalie and players feigning injuries. You got everything you deserve for your time wasting. By the way I like Rotherham and wish you the best for the rest of the season. UTC

    The time wasting was rather excessive by us but again, we come across a homer ref. Why was bramall booked for that first tackle when he made no contact, Kompany got him booked the tool! Ref bought it.

    Thanks for the best wishes and same to you.
