Yep, Beath is a nutjob who always starts out calm and then resembles a manic policeman after about 60 mins. Totally lost control - again. The young liney on Nestor's side didn't help.Yes Chris Beath was Chris Beath, it's not why we lost though.Is it just me, or did the ref just let CCM do their shithousery from the first minute to the last?
Time wasting, kicking the ball away, blocking the ball being played from free kicks? Ref does nothing. Walk slowly to get the ball for a goal kick and then stand there ball in hand chatting to the fullback. Ref does nothing.
The first three times Irankunda goes to run past his full back without the ball, he gets knocked over by the same player. Ref does nothing. And then the ref is surprised when Irankunda barges that same player late. Stupid ref made it happen.
But, as you say, not his fault we lost. When your wing-backs get caught upfield and your CDM has gone missing it's kind of inevitable. They showed us how to defend tonight. Very tight. First goal we got caught dead to rights. Nice finish.
Second goal a debacle on the left, followed by a decent shot but Gauci was slow to get down. Not blaming him though. That's a keeper's life. He shouldn't have had to make a save.
Third goal we leave a good player in metre of space in a central position right on the D. Great finish but he has time to brush his teeth before he had to chose his spot.
Fourth goal, appalling defence on the left again. Two players get left for dead and it's squared to another CCM player left alone at the top of the box.
You can't play like that and win.
We had good chances and took none until Kitto's nice finish. Glad he got it, because he ran himself ragged again, but it was his side that got exploited too.
Still, that's football. We've got kids on the pitch. Another night it turns the other way. But CCM look the goods. They've recruited well.
Those were the days.
