| Presser on 14:25 - Mar 12 with 2125 views | PhilTWTD | Early start! Tuesday harder to deal with than most. First time we've conceded a late goal that's cost us points this season, especially the way the game panned out. Could have done some things differently, but confirmed again penalty was wrong decision. Trained well, recovered well on got on with it. Always get together and speak as a group, focus on what we can control. Normal process for us, more important when games finish like they did the other night. Boys who played will have their first proper session tomorrow. |  | |  |

Really tough question, how to improve it and tough to ask it given last two games, but think most of us have been happier without VAR. But when decisions cost four points, you can make a case for it. Leicester decision is in a different category, no excuse. Tuesday, incorrect decision, but I think Tom Kirk is one of the better referees coming through, saw a pull but made an incorrect decision. Two in such short time, bad look for the league. Everyone wants to improve the level of everything and only way for any of us to move forward is to try and improve. Is what it is, move on and focus on the next game. Would like to be on more points and with better feelings, but concentrate on next game. |  | |  |

Marcelino, Jaden and Azor to be assessed. Jaden has trained with the group today, not sure whether ready yet. Azor and others not sure where we're at with them at the moment.

Nine yellows, not speaking regularly about it with players, will take into consideration along wth fitness, freshness etc. You do consider yellow and red cards when you're selecting but overriding aim is to pick a team to win the game, deliver a performance to get the result. After that we look at run of games, injuries and other fixtures. |  | |  |

Henrik Pedersen desling with difficult situation well, competing in every game. Group of players who haven't given up, good point the other night, rarely well beaten. Got good experienced Championship players, strong players. Henrik's doing well managing a really difficult situation. Credit to them and makes us aware of the challenge we're going to face. |  | |  |

No point in risking Jaden. Keep him fresh for Millwall. |  |

Ashley Young not back until after the international break. Marcelino, difficult to make it back before the international break. Would be disappointed if we don't see him before then. |  | |  |

Marcelino injury, kick in the ankle, spasm which wasn't much. Didn't report anything at half-time and wasn't subbed due to injury. Sometimes as a professional you don't feel it on the pitch. If he had, we wouldn't have had him continue. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Been to Wednesday a few times over the years, stadium which can get behind them. See a team which is fighting every week. |  | |  |

All in our hands, going to make for an exciting end to the season. Quite often it is like that in the Championship. Great chance of it going right to the end of the season. |  | |  |

Is he saying that it's his view that the penalty was the wrong decision, or PGMOL have confirmed it was the wrong decision? |  | |  |

There have been a number of times over the last few years, where a key player has looked like he has been injured, or taken quite a heavy knock, where we haven't taken him off & let him play on for a while or even for the rest of the game. This has surprised me, and others too judging by some comments on here at the time, and has probably led to additional time off injured; Nunez was one of those times when I was surprised to see him continue to play on. |  |

All discussions after a match make zero difference to the outcome bit this is primarily a forum where Town fans discuss stuff so many will he interested in that point. |  | |  |

Reading between the lines, he's saying Busby is just pure shit as a ref. Hard to argue really. |  |

Of course it does. If PGMOL have admitted it then you would like to think that has some form of consequence or lessons learned for the individuals involved. Yes, it doesn't help us in this moment but you would hope it might make things better in the future. |  | |  |

Does it matter about anything said before/after a game? Why bother with a pre/post match press conference? Let’s just not discuss anything whatsoever. |  |

You're right, why do we always have to complicate things? Just play the match and then TWTD can publish the score and link to a highlights video. Job done. |  |

Keith Hackett has said it shouldn't have been a penalty and the Stoke player should have been yellow carded for simulation. |  |

If I thought admitting theyd made a mistake would change anything , Id beintertesed in who admitted it was wromg. But unfortunately we all know , nothing will change. So as bad as it is ( its certainly bloody frustrating) it wont change a thing . The EFL / PL cant even bring punishment against clubs that cheat for years and years. .... so what chance a penalty decision? I GET IT people might want to talk about it ...but as things currently stand its wasted effort surely ... because nothing will change . |  |
