They’re online with Virgin Media – it’s basically the Robert Earnshaw show. I still can’t make my mind up about the goal conceded – clearly someone the size of Parkin shouldn’t be able to go quite so unnoticed in the area from a corner, whether or not Smith should have come for it is unclear.
Earnie’s first goal was thanks to a great cross from Lynch, but also some decidedly questionable marking given the stature of him – a good run from him to get himself some space, the header itself looked scrappy – but it was enough, I can see why their ‘keeper wasn’t happy. If we had conceded that our fans would’ve been shouting for Smith to be claiming it, or at least some of them.
The second goal for Earnie showed his instinct for a chance in action – of course, it was a woeful backpass, but having him on hand to be chasing down made them pay for it! Anderson’s headed chance at the end could have made the game a comfortable and deserved scoreline – it was a cracking save from Lonergan .
