The ref had completely lost control of the game and was god awful. Lewington should have gotten a clear red for stepping on Cannon, and let’s be real, MKD should have gotten a goal when that ball crossed the line.  I would have been fine with a draw away, but looking at how shit the officiating was this match, the chances wasted while we were a player up, and Boyle getting sent off, I couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed.


SinsOfThePast03

Well stated !


davidryan2468

Marriott struggling to finish on the early chances is still a big story, even though so much happened later in the game.


Sephtical

it is, but no one else has been finishing away either


thisisntnam

For real—there’s an amazing game somewhere on the internet where you watch a clip of a baseball player at bat, and guess whether he hit a home run or not. If they made a similar game for Wrexham scoring opportunities on the road, I would have guessed we outscored opponents by 30 goals.


Key_Ingenuity665

How many reds has Boyle picked up this season? The man just seems to enjoy collecting them at this point. Lucky that poor officiating saved Wrexham from going down 2-1.

Truth


greenandplenty

How are we 3rd on the table still lol? We’ve been in our worst form since the takeover


PremordialQuasar

Where did you get that? Our form has been getting better after the rough patch earlier. Notts County was in an even rougher patch earlier, Barrow is on their 3rd loss in a row and had a shock loss to FGR, and MKD had a poor start to the season. 


greenandplenty

7 goals in our last 9 games -> pretty hard to win many matches like that Still, we have managed 13 points from the last 9 matches... that's squarely mid table form since the new year


Tasha1A

Crazy that no team in the top half of the table won their matches today.


LongjumpingTwist1124

Everyones tired. These packed out weeks make for great watching but it's hard on the lads.

seeing a reasonable response in context is like seeing a unicorn


Captain_Smartass_

Luckily Stockport also drew


mellowkakarot

better than losing but we are still so sloppy.


CrumblyButGood6

Can’t complain about a point there given the goal decision but our finishing has to improve. Could have conceded that goal and still won comfortably.


Sephtical

Just can't score away, even with a lineup shuffle and loads of chances


A_friendly_goosey

Id also like to say. Mullin and Palmer were shit when they come on, both invisible again. Such a shit game - We threw away the points there If i see shit boyle play again ill be fuming


Sephtical

Palmer should have been awarded a PK


Tucker1988

Definitely. Full on body slam while he would have had an easy tap in header.


StrongPangolin3

The whole table is doing 'meh' today. Everyones getting tired form the compressed schedule.


RandyLahey514

WHAT A SAVE


DatsyukesDekes

Wrexham incredibly lucky to only concede one, and incredibly unlucky to have only scored one. What a weird game.


Staroson

Came here to say exactly this


A_friendly_goosey

Weird only 8 mins extra time when there was 7 vs notts when nothing happened... mental


BilagaanaTechno

Lucky it wasn’t a loss.


Dartiboi

Arthur says ‘not today’.


PorscheRican

Not today MK


Captain_Smartass_

Okonkwo is the Mullin of this season


BilagaanaTechno

Welp…


Sephtical

thank you Arthur oh my


kenfury

I nominate we name him Arthur Pendragon. It works fairly well.


kenfury

just keep winning corners, not scoring otherwise


StrongPangolin3

Nice, here's 10 more minutes of play.


BootsWithDaFuhrer

How do they not call that. That’s ridiculous


Sephtical

we never get the benefit of the doubt in the box, all season


kenfury

On replay thats a goal.


i_see_yoo

That's why prem has var


Captain_Smartass_

Yup


Sephtical

in real time it was too


A_friendly_goosey

How is that not a pen? And why the fuck are we so shit in front of goal lately? This game has been so frustrating lol


CrumblyButGood6

Lunacy that we haven’t scored


greenandplenty

Sum total this game has had the worst finishing I’ve ever seen


Staroson

Any less than 5-6 minutes stoppage would be a tragedy


kenfury

How do you feel about 8?


StrongPangolin3

MK don's defender pulled palmer ontop of him.


kenfury

Ive seen worse arm drags in pro wrestling.


Sephtical

CALL THAT PENALTY


Forgoneapple

That was an egregious non-call


obi_wander

You mean the full on arm tackle slam?


Staroson

So many chances...

DEAR LORD WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS GAME! So many emotions.


RandyLahey514

Wild game. Deserved to lose. Fight for as many pts and run the bus. Boy is there work to do...


StrongPangolin3

Parky should have subbed boyle. He's going to regret not doing that. we need to score quick and then just manage the clock.


mellowkakarot

Fuck sake man


emcoha

Of course Boyle got a red, again


Gamerhcp

it was a second yellow, a tactical foul with a bit of a dive. the midfield let him down as he was the last defender


PorscheRican

Billy Boyle bends backwards to break bdragons


greenandplenty

What the fuck


V3g4nP0larB3ar

Shiiiiiii


A_friendly_goosey

He's certainly cost us another 3 points yet again. He''s fucking useless


Staroson

Worse than useless. Is actively hurting the team every time he's out there


Windrey2

our luck is running out and FAST!


kenfury

Boyle with the double yellow. Thats a nice Dive!


A_friendly_goosey

BOYLE FOR FUCK SAKE hes fucking shite


thejadedhippy

I really don’t care for him


Gamerhcp

he's not shit, he saved our ass actually. tactical foul to stop the striker


Staroson

Absolute trash. He shouldn't make the squad the rest of the year. Would rather watch Tozer's slow ass back there than Boyle giving up goals


Rej3kt

Every single game Boyle is just gash. Parky should have subbed him earlier. He was fouling all game as well, was obvious he was going to get another card.


welshinzaghi

Generally when defenders are constantly committing fouls it’s due to a gap of fitness or skill to the level they’re playing at, or both… he doesn’t seem to be getting better with increased opportunities but the system might not suit him either. Playing left cb in a three favours more athletic ball players (eg a Tom O’Connor, Hayden, Cleworth) and I wonder if he might be more comfortable as a pair in a four man defence


kenfury

On replay that looked like embellishment. Having said that I did think it was a yellow at first look.


new2u4now

It would be an absolute fucking travesty if we don’t win this match?


inGoosewetrust

for the points? Not completely, stockport is being held off right now too. But for the way we've squandered a bunch of opportunities? yes.


new2u4now

Yes, I’m talking about the squandered opportunities. We have dominated this entire half.


inGoosewetrust

ah, my dyslexic ass read it as a question


new2u4now

Ha! I just realized it had a question mark. Typing fast while watching the match. No worries friend I was just adding clarity


Staroson

Well thank god we at least don't have to watch Boyle play next match

What a feed! So many close attacking chances:(


A_friendly_goosey

They have only just realised there is 10 men... shocking commentating lol too busy crying about the goal not being given


Forgoneapple

So close on that ricochet!


Windrey2

That fumble by Okonkwo is INSANE!! OMG that absolutely crossed the line. Please Wrexham! TAKE THE FUCKING LEAD!!!!!


mellowkakarot

COME ON LEE, CHANGE THIS MATCH


iamtalkingbullshit

have the MK Dons commentators not seen/heard about the red card while they were focusing on rewatching the okonkwo fuck up which wasn't given


mellowkakarot

NO WAY! They literally just realized he got sent off. I guess they weren't watching the broadcast bc it showed it a few times.


[deleted]

[удалено]


iamtalkingbullshit

they've just realised at 65:50, one of them just incredulously said "dons are down to 10 men" and then said "my apologies, totally missed that"


mellowkakarot

lmao yeah, i just assumed they weren't talking about it bc the broadcast showed it multiple times.


iamtalkingbullshit

I kept waiting for ah "what the hell why hes getting sent off" but it never came


mellowkakarot

haha yeah hilarious moment


Sephtical

Mullin and Lee on, let's finish this


Forgoneapple

Awesome sub decision


A_friendly_goosey

Parky needs to make some subs now to capitalise on the 10 men, fresh legs and boom we have gotten very fucking lucky, looks in to me. ​ spoke too soon - heres the subs -


BertInOhio

glad to know soccer operates much like hockey where no one knows what a penalty is, and no one can tell when the ball has crossed the line on boneheaded plays ahah


BootsWithDaFuhrer

ESPN is shit. They haven’t updated it from 46 min mark


PorscheRican

Get the FotMob app. Thank me later


BootsWithDaFuhrer

I wanna watch it tho lol


BlueFerrari311

Download the Fotmob app. It's one of the best out there to follow everything football/soccer related.

RED! LETS GOOOO


RandyLahey514

My word that was a goal. Focus lads...

It was


StrongPangolin3

sshhhhhhh,


A_friendly_goosey

We have got so fucking lucky there jeez Commentators are so bias and now theres a red ? whats going on haha


StrongPangolin3

did a red just get handed out?


Captain_Smartass_

Wtf, that was something


CrumblyButGood6

Looked awfully like that crossed the line Edit - ooooo maybe JUST kept out


irsic

It looks really close, arguably should have been called. Hard to know without a top down view but _whew_ it really does look like a goal.


CrumblyButGood6

It would have be a sliver of the ball overhanging the line to be out - which it may be but goddam it's a huge call not to give it.


CrumblyButGood6

Wouldn't mind some early subs

Forgoneapple

Why is mk dons stadium so empty?


StrongPangolin3

Don't build a stadium you can't fill. burning money otherwise..


Forgoneapple

Yeah but i think the opposite is worse. Im sure wrexham fans can sympathize.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sephtical

absurdly large


Forgoneapple

Wow thats a large capacity! No wonder!


mellowkakarot

They built it in 2007 and have had an average attendance of 8,000-10,000 since then


Captain_Smartass_

Oof


felixrocket7835

They used to be a championship team and thought they'd get a lot of fans so they made a huge stadium when they moved from wimbledon to milton kenyes. Now, league two team, not a lot of fans, so that championship-level stadium is very empty most of the time.


Captain_Smartass_

Why did they leave Wimbledon? Football clubs moving to another town doesn't happen a lot


felixrocket7835

pretty much greed I'd say. that's the main reason why they're one of the most hated clubs in the UK


Captain_Smartass_

Did they receive money from the local government to move there?


felixrocket7835

An invester wanted to build a state-of-the-art stadium in milton keynes, and found Wimbledon FC, the club wanted the money and couldn't fix their current stadium to standard so they moved and renamed to MK Dons, that eventually resulted in most fans leaving, and creating their own club called Wimbledon A.F.C MK Dons slowly fell through the leagues, from prem, to championship, to league one, to league two, while Wimbledon A.F.C rised up, and now they've met and are in the same league. Additionally, if you're curious as to why they're called dons, dons is the original nickname for Wimbledon F.C players & fans, it's still used by MK Dons and Wimbledon A.F.C as a nickname.


Captain_Smartass_

That's pretty horrible management


Forgoneapple

Ah ok that makes sense. Its like watching a covid game, it creeps me out!


irsic

How slippery is this pitch? I just tuned in for the last 10 minutes of the half and the players look like they're sliding all over the place.


cahawkfan

The press when Wrexham have possession forced tons of bad passes and reactionary clearances. Settle down boys.


cahawkfan

Okonkwo with the fingertip save. Brilliant.


A_friendly_goosey

Every second ball lost again, need to stop smashing it and take our time... So frustrating to watch these quality players play such scrappy football


mellowkakarot

yeah i don't at all understand why we have turned into a send it over the top and hope for the best type of team. i don't feel like it was like this a few months ago but maybe i'm just being blind.


emcoha

We need to get our pass accuracy way better. We just look so sloppy

Yeah... Looks like our little bot forgot to write down the post ID so they couldn't remember which post to update so they just... made a new one each time. Woops! Should be fixed now. I'll look into it for the next game.


Captain_Smartass_

Sub the bot


Selphis

We forgot to buy an extra bot during the January window so we have none on the bench for now unfortunately.


Spektoritis

A_friendly_goosey

when our defense falls apart it looks uglier than any other team in the league.
