[Alan]

Scunthorpe really regretting not taking advantage of the early dominance.

 

[White Wolf]

Vaulks has played well.

 

[BillyDee]

Oooh... Njie lucky to not get a red there...

 

[Trips]

Arsenal should throw everything they have to get Simeone

The fans would revolt against that style of play. Not to mention it would require 4 new defenders.

And 4 four new midfielders, none of the current lot have any interest in defending. Suppose Aubameyang might do the running required after he played for Klopp at Dortmund doing all that legwork, probably need to sign someone else to go with him though as Welbeck is probably the only one who'd fancy it and he's a bit shit.

 

[BillyDee]

I suspect Simeone would rather stay at the second best team in Spain and playing in the CL than taking over what is bound to be a poisoned chalice of rebuilding post Wenger Arsenal...

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Lincoln City aggrieved at having what appeared an equaliser ruled out for handball. A big call by the assistant, not sure about it myself, but a brave call particularly as the referee appeared to award the goal.

I think he gets it right Frank. Slight nudge but Rhead throws his arms up theatrically and once it hits his hand he has to give a free kick and not the goal.

 

[Alan]

Thought it was an obvious handball from what they showed.

How much do players at this level get paid? I wasn't expecting Exeter's "stadium" to be so small.

Had the referee gave the free kick then I would agree with you, but the assistant gave it from 60 yards away. I would question why the referee who was much closer didn't pick up the nudge or the handball, deliberate or otherwise.

Well obviously i'd have to agree with you that he should be spotting it but fair play to the assistant who did spot it. As long as they get the right decision in that situation i think it's a good thing but yes the referee should be giving the free kick.

 

[Alan]

Hell of a goal by Boateng and Lincoln have a lot of work to do now.

 

[White Wolf]

Nice goal and game well and truly over.

 

[Alan]

Rhead looks like a lazy Akinfenwa.

 

[James]

Been a really good game shame its turning nasty

Tbf it's clearly having two stands rebuilt.

No just half of the of the pitchside. Normally away fans on the terrace behind the goal

Theyre a league 2 side they wont and dont have a massive fan base. Blackpool were in the Championship with 2 stands and uncovered horrific temp stand for the away fans

 

[east-coast-wolves]

The stadium isn't big, but the stand opposite the camera is being rebuilt currently (bloody loudly too) so it looks even smaller than it is.

Good atmosphere in the Big Bank though. Enjoy going. Gutted I have an exam tomorrow or else I've have been in there tonight.
