It’s pretty pointless blaming officials but today they hit a new low. I’m asking myself if this was the ref’s first game.
He got so many calls wrong he clearly had no confidence in his decisions. He was so erratic at playing advantage yet pedantic about a moving ball or taking a free from the wrong place.
Everyone seems to get a free hit at us for twenty minutes with all manner of infringements going unpunished, yet we usually get the first card.
Having said that, we were completely bullied for the first half with their centre halves absolutely owning Solanke. I have to ask why we can’t find defenders like that, you know, defenders that scare opponents.
The second half was almost proper Spurs but we couldn’t get passed their central defenders. Positives were mostly the effort and appetite and the keeper’s assured performance, and Reggie making the back line more balanced. Regillon ffs!
We probably deserved a point but were out thought, and out muscled.
I shall, of course be back on Wednesday. COYL!
