Well there ain't many positives after that result and performance, but talk about a bad day at the office. But firstly let's not take anything away from beaconsfield who were far superior, hungrier and wanted it more.. They were superb and dominated from start to finish from the off.
Really can't see how beaconsfield are a team that the lads should be "taking points off" as their home record before today's game was impressive. But they showed that..
I think the boys mustered maybe 2 attempts towards goal and even they wasn't enough to get the keepers shorts dirty. Should tom Lorraine have had a penalty in the first half? I was down the opposite end and it seemed yes, would it have been a game changer? Probably not but that's the way it goes sometimes not every game is winnable..
It would be unfair to start picking out poor performances because I really can't put my finger on one player who had a half decent game. They all played to a similar standard and what's important is Tuesday they bounce back and perform to reach a final...
What I do know is speaking to Brad after the game he looked utterly deflated and he could easily have seen red today for an over reaction in the middle, top lad who has passion for the club!!
One more word on the ref who I thought was poor.. I thought on a few occasions he showed a lack of respect in telling players constantly to shut up, but too quick to flash a yellow for what he received back.. And I'm not sure I've heard a vocal ref in constantly saying no foul and giving players instructions? Do prem referees do that or do I need a higher education in lip reading on match of the day
On to Tuesday lads.. It's a new day!!!
