Moore pulled a few masterstrokes last night - playing Palmer in midfield, playing James as one of the back three and putting Paterson in. He held off changing things until the 88th minute, it was clear his message was to the starting 11 was run yourselves into the ground because its you lot who have to win this for us, and when Vaulkes came on it added his throw-in as a weapon that got us the 4th goal. Bannan made a couple of vital tackles when they threatened to break and there was one time when they did break and the player that chased the attacker with the ball down the line before making the tackle was Windass!! The shift they all put in and the way they supported each other by covering when needed was spot on.
What's more interesting is reading the player interviews after the game, seems Moore was showing them videos of comebacks by teams constantly, they went through every goal we have scored this season and they practiced penalties for the last three days. It was all designed to instil belief that anything was possible. I also noticed that Moore was talking to Simon Ireland more than Jamie Smith, not seen that before.
Plus 2 subs were made in the 6 mins, one by us and one by them, that in itself adds 1 minute automatically.
Obviously Fergie thinks Fergie time is just for his family!!!

How are you going to start flopping and casually strolling towards the line to take throw ins then complain about added time??
Should we complain about him pulling us up for 23 fouls but only pulling them up for 11?
Should we complain that we had legitimate penalty shouts in both legs ignored?
Tag, you're it Posh. You choked!
When they put the board up it says a minimum not a maximum. If you chose to waste time in that period it will get extended. I don't understand their argument
