You say that about Andrews, and yet if you watch him in the aftermath of the first goal he slaps the face of an injured Slough player on his way past.



Given that the ref gave a red to Harris that's probably worth at least a yellow if he sees it, and so is a little bit stupid. Having said that he got away with it, and I quite like the way we wind up the opposition at the moment; everyone else tries it on us. Plainmoor has definitely become a horrible place to come under Johnson, long may that be the case!

I’m really glad that Plainmoor has become a hostile place for opposing teams to come and play. We’ve been too nice for a long time. They don’t like it up em.

I see what you mean regarding Jake Andrews, that was a bit silly (although I suppose at least he didn’t kick him!!).
Mind you it is silly season, I have just cut the grass as it was getting so long, and I live way up north in Exeter!!

Only because Exeter and Plymouth didn't play and they had a spare 10 seconds

Just listened to a 12 minute interview with Neil Baker Slough Manager on the Slough Official Website.
Very complimentary about United. Gives a very detailed assessment of the Red Card for Ben Harris.
Worth a listen.

The bloke is in denial, they rode their luck with eleven on the pitch in the first half and he spends nearly all the interview talking about the idiot player. He defends the player but their commentary team knew that something would happen with him and, initially, laughed their heads off as he got booked.
