Well, it was a thoroughly good game between two footballing sides, and one dodgy penalty aside, it would have been the right result. We both created good chances, your finishing was better than our hopeless efforts, I give you that, but you had the advantage of a good goalkeeper...
On the penalty, if that had been in the other box, you'd want it given for you so you can't moan when it goes against you. And the penalty we had at the CG last season was weak to say the least, so that's balanced out and I don't begrudge you getting that, nor do I think the referee was a wanker (well, I did at the time!).
Your winning goal was absolutely brilliant, I thought our goal was pretty special from a footballing perspective, great move, cross and finish. But your winner was even better, which is a bit disappointing!
Douglas and McGovern were probably the difference, they were both magnificent. Your goalkeeper is much better than Brezovan, who hopefully won't play for us again now Michel Kuipers is fit again. As good as though Douglas was, I honestly thought our Gary Dicker (#18) was atleast as good as he was, if not quite so influential. He was brilliant, second half especially and I know the Don Rogers stand appreciated his tackling and dribbling skills.
Also, I apologise for Adam El-Abd's pathetic "I've been headbutted!" dive midway through the second half, he really is a joke of a footballer if we're being honest and he's our liability, much like Lescinel seems to be yours!
Anyway, it was a good game and Idon't begrudge you the win, I'm genuinely pleased to see you doing well and I wish you all the best for the rest of the season, though you're going DOWN when you come to the Withdean.
Merry Christmas everyone!
