- We have 10 points from our last eight games. (NCFC) - norwaay, Dec 1, 10:23:16

- Always talking about a DCM since tettey left.... (NCFC) - KetteringRyu, Dec 1, 09:51:08

- Williams is fine (NCFC) - CWC, Dec 1, 08:59:52
  - I think overall he is decent (NCFC) - AstroCanary, Dec 1, 09:13:32
    - Gilmour has had two 6.5/10 games for which he weirdly got MOTM (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 1, 09:32:52
      - Sorry I wasn't clear - was talking about Williams. (NCFC) - AstroCanary, Dec 1, 09:39:28
        
        Ah, yeah, Williams has been really good in some games (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 1, 09:42:01
- I think Williams has done really well (NCFC) - Munich93, Dec 1, 08:52:51
  - He’s a very good player but we were noticeably … (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 08:54:52
    - But it’s horses for courses….Williams is a much better defender than DG. (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Dec 1, 09:03:51
      - Yea that’s fair (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 09:29:07
I know we weren’t great but those two penalty shouts still winding me up (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 08:03:04
- These pitchside monitors put huge pressure on refs to give home teams the benefit (NCFC) - Munich93, Dec 1, 08:20:19
  - Once they are told to go there and shown the slowest possible, cherry picked image the (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 08:21:36
    - Agree when they look at pitch side it’s inevitable (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 08:29:20
- The first one looked a pen to me (NCFC) - 51eve, Dec 1, 08:08:10
  - They said they were reviewing it which makes it even more frustrating (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 08:20:24
  - The second one I didn’t think was a pen (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 1, 08:12:49
    - I guess arm over head is always clear & obvious error (NCFC) - CWC, Dec 1, 08:30:03
      - Arm over head is considered an unnatural way to jump. (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Dec 1, 09:35:40
      - genuine question - can i ask why you think its not a pen when a defender dives in front (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 09:03:13
        
        Was that the 2nd one? (NCFC) - CWC, Dec 1, 09:13:26
        
        Yes - see the link below posted by Declan (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 09:14:20
        
        That little video clip is fairly damning for me (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Dec 1, 09:21:08
        
        Isn’t it Idah’s contact that pushes his arm into the ball? (NCFC) - CWC, Dec 1, 09:35:03
        
        I wouldn’t. Both were blatant handballs. Idah doesn’t barge him he throws himself in front (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 10:03:11
        
        They will say its because his arms are not in an unnatural position given his movement (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 09:25:43
    - Second one possibly more of a pen. Don’t know how to post a link to it though (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 08:19:43
      - Link here... (NCFC) - Declan, Dec 1, 08:21:37

        Well that's a nailed on pen. He's made a movement with his arm (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 1, 08:34:28
        
        Didn't even get a corner out of it, ref gave a goal kick! (n/m) (NCFC) - Declan, Dec 1, 08:35:49
        
        Cheers. Have you got the first as well? (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 08:22:22
        
        First one here...'there is a VAR check'...maybe the monitor was broken?! (NCFC) - Declan, Dec 1, 08:31:37
        
        What that means is Mason told him he didn't need to look at it again. (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 1, 09:20:18
        
        That's even worse than I remember. (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Dec 1, 08:43:18
        
        I think what in the refs eye stop that being given (NCFC) - Whyohwhy, Dec 1, 08:37:16

  - I don't rate him, but I agree, he wasn't much worse than most of the rest of the team (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Dec 1, 07:53:16
  - Flak Quack (n/m) (NCFC) - Augustus Pablo, Dec 1, 07:51:08
  - I’d be ok with dropping him if we had someone better to bring in (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 1, 07:44:05
    - Onel Hernandez (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 1, 08:01:12
      - Not doing much at Boro in the division below (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 08:19:58

        They were a man down with an unfamiliar match up (NCFC) - Munich93, Dec 1, 08:22:52
        
        Yes - there was no space in behind to thread a through ball (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 1, 09:24:25
        
        Yes they sat in and defended deep not sure what your point is (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 08:26:32
        
        My point is that decision making around marking Pukki becomes fudged (NCFC) - Munich93, Dec 1, 08:36:28
        
        Do you even believe what you type? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 1, 09:25:52
        
        We only really had that when idah came on as … (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 08:38:45
        
        I think Idah could do with a spell on loan (NCFC) - Munich93, Dec 1, 08:50:24
        
        I think that’s right but not without us getting in a replacement (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 1, 09:47:36
        
        Quite. He'd be marking the fucking keeper. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Dec 1, 08:16:09
        
        Problem was that Tzolis and Sargent weren’t offering (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 1, 08:23:27
        
        Sargent seems happy to work but in non threatening areas (NCFC) - Munich93, Dec 1, 08:27:25
        
        In the interests of balance... (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 1, 09:46:37
        
        Again not sure why Sargent being singled out the whole … (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 08:30:37
        
        It was both "wide" players that tucked in and offered no option (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 1, 09:39:56
- Why is he getting so much flak?… (NCFC) - loz, Dec 1, 07:40:39
  - Why is he getting so much quack? (n/m) (NCFC) - Graham Nine, Dec 1, 08:48:00

- Maybe so, but still a lot better than placheta for example (n/m) (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Dec 1, 07:45:00
- Lol, I think you’ve nailed it there MICHAEL (Other Football) - Under soil heating, Dec 1, 07:40:23
