THINK Bertrand had treatment in injury time - hence more than 4.
BUT they were awarded a foul near their left corner flag but it didn’t look like Redmond fouled anyone to me - and he was heading toward goal too.
THEN the free-kick that they did get was taken 10 yards further forward and 3 yards in field. Ref just let them take it from where Redmond had kicked it.
HOWEVER, Bertrand should have put that in to touch. Amateur hour.
GREAT performance and one that gives me a little hope.
A few bad decisions by players and officials cost us three, but we got one, and it is still in our hands.
Swansea are struggling to find the net, Yoshi will be a miss, bit with Stephens hungry to come back and prove a point, I think that can work in our favour
Gutted, but more hopeful than I have been before in this season.
I said I’d be happy with a point but i can’t be happy with that ending. I’m am emotional wreck and lost for words. I’ve had to aggressively finish mowing the lawn and open a bottle of red.
Back from the game. Deeply disappointing to not get all three of those points. The draw felt like a loss. The reality is that we are out of the relegation zone, our survival is in our own hands and can be all but assured if we beat Swansea midweek. Hughes’s Saints can score goals. Swansea can’t buy a goal at the moment.
Much respect to Red Sonja and her firm of middle aged maidens. Their attendance record has been fantastic this year, of all fucking years! They’ve done nearly every game, home and away. Barry, take note, and learn to spot the only man in the Sir Thomas Frost that looks like a vagrant washed and dressed for a job interview
Everton fans were top as well, most commiserating with us, saying they deserved nothing from the game. Pretty quiet, once again, at Goodison. Put your money on Allardici getting the bootski. The ground was toxic in Martinez’ second season. It’s indifferent at the moment. That’s probably worse.
At the end of the day if the 3rd official holds the board up saying 4 minutes of extra time it should be 4 minutes. if it was 5 minutes it should be 5 minutes. Not rocket science. We were fucking robbed. The referee is a cunt. That is not rocket science.
And if stuff happens in the added time,i.e Cedric spends 90 seconds on the floor getting treatment, than that is to be added to the added time. That too is not rocket science.
More disappointing is the failure to position the ball correctly for a free kick.
Is Bertrands moment away to Everton this years version of Crouchies at home to Everton in 2005?
Mind you a restless night riven by nightmares of things being lost or disappearing and helplessness.
A positive note is I will be totally off the grid Tuesday at an industry event. No streams, no txt updates just interminable explanations of nominations by some chick in a ball home, handshakes, trophies, photos.
And 4 hours of free booze.
Fair play to Bertrand for his Instagram post last night admitting he was a twat
I’m at a stage of wanting to lash out at the man whose incompetence led to that final gut-wrenching goal and that’s referee J. Moss. As Hughes said it was Moss who struggled to keep up with play throughout the match, it was he who decided to rule (from 30yds behind the play) that Redmond had fouled the defender whilst the linesman 3 yards away thought it was a fair challenge. To compound said felony he allowed Everton to take the free kick 15 yards from the supposed foul.
We equally all know that Yaya Toure will inexplicably volley an injury time winner into his own net for us a week today to set off insane and wild celebrations.
(Because obviously Pep wants to sign Nathan and we’ve made this scenario a condition of the deal)
