Just can't see Bath matching our results for the rest of the season but who knows.

We might not have played that well yesterday but we were actually winning 2-1 with ten or so minutes to go and but for one of our players having a serious brainfade and trying to smash a penalty to Nagasaki and back it would have been all over.

If you had played that game another ten times from the position we were in when Andrews took the penalty its unlikely that we would have lost any of them.

Even then Bath needed a debatable penalty to get back into the game, there are enough people saying that their player dived for the penalty (even the chap who does the commentary for radio devon)

Its typical of our luck though - looks like another ref who was stagestruck.

Even then after getting in front Bath still had to rely on us missing another open goal to win the game.

By my reckoning that's two giilt edged chances missed and a penalty. We could quite easily have got FIVE and that was on an off day. Much seems to have been made of how we wouldn't have deserved to win had we managed it but it seems that Bath might have been just as fortunate to win the game even more so.

Can't stand their manager either - he looks like a pikey who hasn't washed for a month.

Unnecessary final commet, however fully agree with the first bit. They gave their best shot, wasn't quite good enough and needed help from us and the ref

Reading their website Woking were lucky to get a point and their goal led a charmed life with St Albans hitting the post twice. Jake Hyde also did his hamstring. I see they play one of their games
in hand on Tues 5th home to Dartford
They also have to go to Bath in a few weeks
Just trying to cheer myself up after yesterday
We can't afford many more giveaways like that

We can't afford anymore refs like that buffoon either.

Just seen the highlights. Brunts dived for their penalty. Farcical decision

Looked weak from all concerned. Brunt falling, Hall appearing tired hanging a leg out, which and the ref giving a decision to make. That said, as a former centre-half, I have been disappointed if it had been given.

As mentioned above the other outstanding game is to be played on 5th February. So going into March we will know exactly what is required of us.

NEWSFLASH: Brucie the self-appointed armchair V.A.R. disagrees with unfavourable refereeing decision.

:goodpost:

banter!! You have 'nailed it' - berating the ref for a split second decision, using match highlights and slowmo to form argument #DUMB

Yes, agree with comments about the pen - Brunt threw himself across Hall who had every right to kick the ball. It even looked like he touched the ball too as he comes away with it. Disgraceful decision - had it been the other way round I would not even had claimed a penalty, never mind expect one to be given.
