Well, no replays but to me there looked to be fouls for both their goals... (NCFC) - Pixelman, Aug 13, 20:40:32
- Sky Sports is showing replays. Both their goals arguably a result of professional fouls. (NCFC) - The Gaffer, Aug 13, 20:47:30

    - Yep! That was a foul for sure (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Aug 13, 20:47:13
This is the worst squad we’ve had since 2009, isn’t it? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Aug 13, 20:36:27
- We’ve not been that bad. Just two bits of bad marking/possible fouls not given (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Aug 13, 20:42:52

    - Hanley: hold my beer (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Aug 13, 20:48:59
- Or not seen, as the case may be, given we just seemed to watch the ball drift slowly in (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Aug 13, 20:33:48
