For all the criticism he has received our equaliser was down to him.

He didnt give up!

The only thing I will say about today is two players on the subs bench saywers and Romeo only came from international duty last night, two very important players Etete and Robinson injured

And finaly a ref who does not know the rules, jack in the first half kicking the ball away, rules state an auto yellow, he got booked in the second half if Stroud had done his job it should have been a second yellow. and the shirt pull on Kaba how was that not a penalty.

They say that luck evens itself out over a season not with city it does not, we never get any, and without being paranoid refs also favour english clubs with contensious decisions, I really do dispair :banghead:

While I'm not a fan of Colwill ( far too much hype) he was part of a good build up and put a decent cross in for the equaliser.

Putting this to one side, he didnt take the game by the scruff of the neck and either take control, or swing the pattern of play to our favour.

To avoid doubt however, neither was he the worst player of the day.

Not an excuse for our defeat because we were poor anyway but have to agree with the refereeing regarding the yellow card and the pull on Kaba. And he made a point of sending the Jack player back 7 or 8 yards to the corner flag on a throw but then ignored him run back to same position before releasing the ball. Very poor referee.

It’s simple the squad we have isn’t good enough for this league let’s hope lamouchi can perform a miracle and keep us in it and then build a squad capable of competing against the better teams in this league .

Agree Barclay.

I am a RC believer and thought he was letting another game pass him by, but that was a moment of quality and he knew exactly what he was doing

We need a real manager who has a plan for Rubes, I reckon we have the real manager, but if he stays around is another issue.

Colwill has talent that can only be measured in goals and assists, not yards run or tackles made. He would be a lot better (as would most) with better players around him, but he is in the championship in a team that's probably L1 which hasn't aided his development.

Didn’t give up? He was a late sub and simply ran to a ball played through for him. It was a decent cross back but I really can’t see where the “didn’t give up” bit is about?
