Another great report.
When the second goal went in it was a mass exodus, I felt sorry for the players, we stayed to the end to clap them off.
Perhaps 'hardcore' rather than 'genuine' fans Paul? - You are probably right. I just get a bit incensed about these things from time to time even though I know I shouldn't.Perhaps 'hardcore' rather than 'genuine' fans Paul?
One of the noticeable things about Bate was that he worked hard to stop Will Hughes controlling the middle of the pitch and when he left, Hughes has noticeably more impact as the game broke up.
Also, it was typical set of Robinson substitutions that meant we lost our shape.
There were definitely some 'different' fans there - a group of young guys came in late and sat next to us, with that shifty look lads together can have. I had them down as Palace fans but they showed little emotion either way, and had a nice long half time break. I guess we'll have to get used to a lot more of this when/if we move to the new ground. Really they were fine, it's just that I didn't recognize them!
You missed a great chance to photoshop Matt Tubbs’ face on there.
