bcubed John Smith Ian Royal On the pen, I've got to say weds showed a masterclass in how to put off a striker.
Defender who gave it away stayed down pretending injury to make Vydra wait.
Another player gets in Vydra's ear, doubtless psyching him out
Keeper takes his time drying his hands just when Vydra thought it was go time to sap the moment from him.
Ref failed to stamp his authority on them all game.
+1000
I was watching the saga unfold knowing deep down he'd miss, no confidence. Should have been someone else taking.
I'm glad we didn't lose this, they really are full of themselves as a club and supporters. That "we're on our way back" chant - they were in oxf*rd League 1 3 years ago and have been mid table ever since they came back up!!
Indeed
I dont think he helped himself by picking up the ball and waiting at the penalty spot the whole time this was going on
Yep. As soon as it became apparent there was an 'injury' he should have picked it up, wandered over to our other players and done something to take his mind off, until he got called back to it. But hindsight is golden, and it wasn't a weak penalty, just 3-4 inches off perfect.
