We had a breakaway from their corner in the 1st half...........3 or 4 v 1.........all Gray had to do, under no pressure, was slide the ball into the inside left channel and we were through one-on-one v the keeper..........and he shanked it horribly straight down the pitch. Farke's fault, obviously.
If James's shot had been an inch lower, and had bounced down and in a la Geoff Hurst, I'm pretty sure we'd have gone on to win that match. My point is that all the criticism of manager & players is unjust. It was just football (and the Triple Curse we were up against: London/Playoffs/Cup finals!)
