You’ve never even played tenth division Sunday league football if you think that’s a handball. You’d be embarrassed as a defender to claim it.

After the ref’s performance against Fulham, has there ever been more of a β€œhold my beer moment”?

While hard to say a draw wasn’t a fair result on balance of play, an unacceptable refereeing performance denies as clear a penalty as you’ll see, and a red card.

It’s the sort of team we’d have started the season with so can’t feel too sorry for ourselves. Be great to get a result down there today #SAFC

Well we had a good run with the glorious #SAFC retro stuff.

Black Lonsdale kit hands down WORST we’ve ever had. Remember how disgusted Keane was we had Lonsdale kits?

The ref needs to compose himself here and not react to this nonsense. It’s a stonewall penalty.

McLean in co comms was desperate to try and persuade himself it wasn’t a foul. Every decision we get he’s making it seem like a controversy of some sort.

Need an attacking player to step up here and show everyone their quality #SAFC

Be good to see him at champ level, see if the hype is real

What a very clear yellow card challenge that was

What a great clearly onside goal that was.

Yeah the reality we need to start facing

I also think this Hume thing needs to be put to bed now. I don’t know what’s happening on the training ground (obviously) but it’s not working and limiting us at that end of the pitch.

I thought #SAFC played with a fear I’ve not seen all season at home. As soon as Liverpool scored, they relaxed and started to play a bit, almost like a weight had been lifted. The crowd could sense it all too, really odd.

You should do a video mooching around trying to find them doing their videos, so you can tell them to stop.

Would watch.

Doing some podding this evening, a little bit wrapping up of the Arsenal game and looking ahead to Liverpool.

Any questions, thoughts #SAFC lot?

As much as I’ve ever wanted wanted a #SAFC outgoing loanee to do well.

I also despise us wearing black and our performances in this kit aren’t changing my mind.

Absolute shocker by #SAFC.

Felt like a no brainer to start Geertruida in midfield and that shambolic performance by Hume just makes the call even more bizarre.
