In open play I would argue that Pukki's second chance was the best unscored chance...

...of the game.

Look I get where you are coming from and I am not going to argue that we were the stronger team. We weren't. All I am saying is that the first 30 mins showed us that we aren't actually light years away and it is not beyond the realms of imagination that we could have won that on another day. We would definitely find it easier with more investment and with more strength and presence, no doubt.

    - When were they last relegated? (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Feb 9, 21:53:27
      - They've been in the prem since 2013 ... (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 9, 21:57:25
        
        Yep. Definition of an established side. (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Feb 9, 22:00:27
        
        My point was it’s not they are established that means they have the squad they have (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Feb 9, 22:02:07
        
        Surely it's exactly why? (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 9, 22:08:08
        
        They got rid of half their squad. It’s wages. They pay better wages. (NCFC) - Jim, Feb 9, 22:14:21
        
        Of course it is - they're richer (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 9, 22:20:01
        
        the problem isn’t that we are up against established sides (NCFC) - CWC, Feb 9, 22:10:59
