From my recollection Tomkins had a right go at Noble because as the ball was pumped forward when it was 2 - 2 Noble who was meant to be sitting in front of the back 3, was nowhere to be seen as the ball landed in the midfield area and Lukaku nearly got in for another crack at goal - Noble took affront to the dispersion and it all kicked off limbo style.

Ginge was immense last night but when he makes a rickett it tends to cost us ... and it did with the free kick.

Old Martinez Bianca was moaning about the 'penalty' not given despite agreeing we should have had one for the hand ball, plus the fact he dived over Tomkins leg ... hilarious play acting again not seen by the ref but clearly seen by the spacko lino.

My best men last night were Collins despite the rickett, Tomkins, Cresswell and Carroll. Song was definitely feeling the effects still of the virus and shouldn't have played and Noble and Jenkinson were not up to their usual standards, but Jarvis was indeed shit and I was gobsmacked he wasn't yanked at half time.

Amilfatano is desperately unlucky not to playing in this side, he seems to be the fall guy who despite being effective gives way to shit like Jarvis. Jarvis I feel a bit for as last year he was one of the decent players despite little end product, but due to the vast upgrade in the squad he now looks a hugely ineffective bottler who really only gives you an out ball ... which was one of the reasons BFS signed him, but he's not suited to a side that now plays as we do, where we don't sit back any more, and therefore the out ball is not nearly as regularly required.

Defoe I'm hearing guys ...... what do ya fink?
