Good write up REPD. Everyone seems a bit too exited considering Goodman was mom and we got lucky multiple times. Our goal came from their poor defending not us tearing them apart and creating loads of chances. They will have to attack us at plough lane which plays to our strengths but this tie definitely isn’t over.

REPD is definitely right that the second leg is going to be tense, one goal and the advantage is gone, let’s hope Mcgoldrick is injured as he looked the best player on the pitch last night.

Prem refs don’t understand League 2, so that could work against us…. 🙄

If that red is rescinded, there’s no justice - is it the same ref for the second leg…?

TBF the normally card happy ref let a lot of tackles go unpunished till about the 40th minute when hippo got booked for a tackle that was not as bad as probably 7 or 8 previous tackles in the game.

Also think we got away with 7+2 mins in added time as the added time in added time was more like 4. But doubt it mattered, unless you are of a nervous disposition

JJ said after the match that Smith had come back into the changing room with a cut down his leg, which presumably indicates that there was contact. On the taking-the-ball-to-the-corner thing, I wonder whether that was a JJ tactic or the players' own instincts.

Violent conduct, regardless of a foul or not won't see the card rescinded, other than the original offence happening, and a verdict being issued, then I'd suggest whilst in May have merit ( think it was the correct decision btw) what happened afterwards should appear in the Refs report also and will judged in the round in my view.

If our skipper was give 3 matches for his foul, a 2 footed lunge won't escape punishment either.
Rode our luck at times yesterday but a really solid away performance. Proactive subs as well which was excellent to see. Tend to agree that we could have been a little more positive rather than heading for the corner at the end of the game but can't blame Jackson for being cautious and resulted in the red card. Goodman had an unbelievable game and Harbottle looks like a different player since he came back from injury. County still have quality so have to be careful, an early goal next Saturday would be welcome.

Were the red card to be incorrectly rescinded, what is the position on the two 'cards' he should have got for grabbing Neufville's face and then flicking at Smith as he left? I assume you can't give exrtra cards after a red.

Dundonald - re that late free kick, I agree that it was a great chance to launch the ball into the area for a potential second goal, and instead we took it to the corner and immediately lost possession - however, sending it into the box also risks having the keeper catch it and punt it long for a quick counterattack, so you’re kind of damned if you do/don’t, etc… Luckily we didn’t suffer any negative impact from the decision last night… ☺️

Taking the ball to the corner is something we don't do often enough and dropped points in the season through trying to play football from the oppo's corner in the dying minutes.

From what I saw Smith's ankle "gave way" as he landed and that's probably why he fell.

I think it's psychological since County now have a week to stew over a home loss, albeit by just one goal

Complete performance that. How good has Harbottle been since coming back from injury. One of those who will handle the step up if we make it imo. Would love to keep the backbone of this side together for next season.

A win on Saturday to make it 3 in a row and you have to fancy us against anyone in the final.
Ha! Well maybe Kelly will get his 4 in the second leg :-)

Exactly - and it might have got us closer to your 4 - 0 score prediction :-)

DunDonald, i thought that too. I guess there is a psychological advantage going into a second leg a goal up but ultimately not much. I mean it is only a goal with 90+ minutes to play. I'd have expected us to go for a second in that situation
