Alias I would like to see your comments if Mandeville or Marquis had done the same thing, eight yards out,with only the goalkeeper to beat, and no defender near is a sitter to me mate.

Funny how we all see the same things differently. He had to beat a defender to even get the shot away. Marquis has missed about 10 easier chances this season minimum, and Mandeville barely ever gets in to a good position to even have chances like that.Alfie May is not the reason we didn't win today's game.
Perhaps May made the wrong decision and should have hit it low, but his effort was still on target and required a good save from the keeper. What other player on our books would have definitely buried it?
We dried up in midfield the last quarter,

We abandoned it because we were getting over-run in midfield. Today I thought midfield was an area we struggled in throughout.
There is only one fact,Liam Mandeville DID NOT miss THAT chance.
