ALL THE WAY WITH EVERY MANJACK PUUTING IN A SHIFT AND JOE STEPHENS PLAYING BRILLIANTLY IN THE CENTRE OF DEFENCE AND HAD DONE THEMSELVES AND THE CLUB PROUD.

IF THE WRETCHED OFFICIAL HAD DONE HIS JOB IT COULD HAVE WEJJ BEEN 3 1 TO BRNESC AT HALF TIME AND WHAT A DIFFERENT SECOND HALF COULD HAVE UNFOLDED WITH THAT SCORELINE TO DEFEND!!!

THEIR WERE 3 STONEWALL PENS FOR BRNESC AND HE ONLY GAVE ONE OF THEM!!!HE SHOULD STICK TO GARDENING ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON!!!
