Kiwidoug Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Isn't football frustrating. We've built Paterson up to being twice the player Bale is and now he turns out to be rubbish. Lucky to get a game for Alloa. I'm the biggest offender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattatooi Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Not seen much English championship football but expected the standard to be a lot better than this. Cardiff look particularly awful, and not just for that strip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnasher75 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Paterson actually did OK. Strange seeing him playing as an attacking central midfielder and then up front at the end. Looked better as the game went on. He won a lot of headers including one that was cleared off the line and could have won it in injury time with a good burst of speed to get into the box before shooting wide. The overall quality was poor. Cardiff should have won it and would have but for a shocking refereeing decision. Cardiff player fouled on edge of box, ref plays advantage and then inexplicably blows whistle just as they scored and called it back for the free kick.

The tsunamis of money at the EPL level have inflated everyone's expectations of quality in the EFL but IMO the league setup lends itself to a kind of war of attrition over the course of the season. Be nice if the SPFL had people in charge of it who thought the same... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see in flashes that there is a decent standard of player though, I thought Millwall's goal was really well taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rule was that games could not be televised live at the same time as the CL (we’ve twice played Hibs in cup replays when CL games were on, that’s why they weren’t on tv). No idea if the rule has changed or if their game is live on tv tomorrow night. Was thinking I’ll watch Man City game tomorrow but then remembered it will be on BT.

Not only has Big Arrogant Fallilalliwell and his PA, Dumbcaster not sold Scottish Football, they have denigrated it! "No use without both the Uglies playing each other 4 times a season in the League and," if the balls are warmed up properly, "in both Cup Finals." That's why Regan had to go! There was enough warming of the balls for the Scottish Cup. You can see that the problem has been rectified in the latest Scottish Cup draw.
