Big game for Doak I think - all the hype he has to live up to it against lower opposition.
We should win, but NM have gone 10 without a win and 6 without scoring, so we know whats going to happen tonight 🙄

Doak is out of position at wing-back, waste of his ability tbh.

It was a clear penalty, if Doak doesnt take avoiding action he`s taken out and risking an injury. Slow mo replays are absolutely awful in those situations.
Doak started the second half very well.

Doak is very, very clearly a special talent who has maybe been a bit unfortunate with injury and not getting enough game time. I see the typical mean spirited attitudes coming to the fore online though rather than supporting the lad.

Decent performance and should have scored more, but a fairly comfortable win away from home. We’ll take it.
Both penalty decisions spot on from the ref as well. Only mistake was not booking Gannon-Doak for a blatant and poor attempt at cheating.

It wasn’t cheating but neither was it a penalty.
He was going at pace into the box and he has to put his foot somewhere.
It just happened to be on the defenders foot which throws him off balance.

Nah, I’m afraid I don’t agree. He stands on the defender’s foot, throws himself to the ground and then jumps up celebrating “winning” the penalty like he’s just scored a goal. Got caught cheating, should have been booked.

I see it differently. Gannon-Doak has the ball and the defender comes across to challenge him. He doesn’t get the ball and plants his foot directly in Gannon-Doak’s path. Gannon-Doak then steps on that foot and goes down.
The fact that Gannon-Doak’s foot lands on the defender’s makes it any less of a foul. The defender has attempted a challenge, missed the ball and put his leg into the path of an attacker who is in possession.
If the defender had planted his leg there and Gannon-Doak had hit his shin instead, nobody would question it being a penalty. The way it happens is slightly different, but the result is the same: the defender challenges, misses the ball and causes the attacker to fall.

This is how I saw it. If BGD had made an obvious move to stand on the foot that would be different but he was at full tilt and it was planted right in his path. That kind of thing can knacker your ankle (and obviously the defender`s too). I think there might also have been small contact around the thigh or enough proximity that he had to try to avoid it at least

Agree. SP said that because we had four games in a relatively short period that he would need to utilize the squad as much as possible. If his team selection for tomorrow is similar to what it has been then quite a few players will have played a significant part in all four games.
I would be very surprised if we don’t see McPake, Miller and Montgomery getting minutes against Slovenia. It would be easy to introduce these players if we were three or four goals up in a game and that’s unlikely.
What an opportunity we missed in 2014.

Pretty much every governance decision at every level of football benefits the big nations, or the big clubs.
48 team world cup didn`t favour the smaller nations - quite the opposite. It gave the bigger nations far less jeopardy in the tournament. It`s no coincidence that this was the first world cup in history where the top 4 highest ranked teams all made it to the semis.
