Re: REPORT: Winning run ends with no complaints

We were beaten by the better team on the night. The two goals they got were not world class, fortunate goals in many ways I thought. So we were second best but hell fire and buckets of coal they were last years Champions and we lost by a single goal to the likes of Coutois, Cahill, Azpellasomething...

Re: Heaton back in goal v Stoke?

There's a sudden rush to drop the GK who's consistently performed well all season and kept us in 7th, so Heaton can get a couple of games.

If it was the other way round there would be no demands for Heaton to be dropped to allow Pope some games, there wasn't last season.
