...realise that's an emotion based feeling rather than anything based on fact but, you know, what a load of smelly bollocks...
Some bright stuff initially - fluffed shots and deflected efforts but we were finding space. But then Sunderland pushed up instead of sitting deep and it all went kinda tossy...
As a fan in the ground I couldn't work out were we had legitimate reasons for complaining about the ref and where we didn't but it did feel he was making a point - possibly for how easy Naismith went down time and time again...
That said we had some cracking shots, hit the post, had at least one cleared off the line and their keeper made some top saves but still I never felt like we'd score...
It isn't over yet but bugger me despite the efforts on goal it does feel that we're now more than a little f**ked:
- We have no quality centre back pearing as Move Klose is out
- Our second right back is potentially out
- Our only crosser and feeekick specialist inexplicably disappeared presumably because he was injured
- SAN does make some baffling substitutions with hopefully Brady not being of them
However, if we do go down, I think we should be OK as we can get back - he's proved that - whether after that it's enough is another question...
What a load of old arse, who are up next, I believe...
Ramble over...
