Couldnt make head nor tail of it. Kept calling us a good side and words to that effect, but implied that we're lumpers, moaned about the referee and that they need to be more 'streetwise' in these kinds of games. I'd heed lessons from it, Joe.
Moaned about the ref? He gave them every soft free kick going, was very card shy over their relentless fouling on Moore and let their keeper off the hook for picking up the clearest back pass you'll ever see!
Barton seems of the opinion that they were the better team on the day, and all we did was break away and score. As much as I agree that they had a real go at it and had plenty of the ball, we still bettered them statistically. It's all about expectation. If he thinks that was a great performance by them, then fair enough. Had we huffed and puffed without creating much, we'd be disappointed.
All that doesnt count though cos Victor stood his ground in the build up to our 3rd. The way Fleetwood went on though youd think he'd chopped their defenders knee caps off or summat
