Abdulai gives away a penalty.
Lazy leg as Gary Neville would always say

 

[lidojack]

How on earth is that a penalty?

 

[Swanjaxs]

Got what we deserve

 

[A4Jack]

Well this is going well

 

[Muteswan]

It’s going to be a long season if this is the best we have.

 

[sainthelens]

And so it begins....gifting fckn goals.

 

[bakajack]

How on earth is that a penalty?

Defo a penalty.
Daft from Abdulai to stick a leg out like that

 

[Swansea93]

New season same shit hip hip hoooray.

 

[Ronald Parp]

We’re playing the ref a little bit too mind.

 

[Birchgrovejack]

Soft pen, but this ref has given loads of soft free kicks

 

[SwanseaJack]

This ref is soft af, so many weak free kicks etc given

 

[Tomsyard]

Grimes does it all the time, he's often standing between or behind the defenders as the deepest outfield player.

All it does is create a big hole in the midfield, it does enable him to get his touches stats up though

That’s up to other midfield players to take advantage of the the space created to move into the attacking third. It’s not Grimes fault players aren’t thinking

 

[Smurph]

Would rather start with 10 men than have Fulton in the team.

It was his half arse attempt to win the ball in the centre circle that led to break for the penalty.

 

[magicdaps10]

Deserve to be losing.
Agreed the ref is giving Boro the little things.

 

[monmouth]

I enjoyed the close season.
