the pitch was very hard and they had left wedges of cut grbutt in the areas where rugby players had rutted the turf, so there was a looseness under foot, the whole week the pitch had been baked, it was really hot all week, so it was far from a great surface.

the first 10 mins was all us, as you say, gerrard bursting down the wing in the opening seconds and fouled by konchesky in the first minute, i thought he should have been given a yellow straight off.
well WHU were great on the break, played some decent football and thankfully were really up for a battle but this idea that they played us off the park is BS. I watched the game again last night, they were in it alright but mostly benefitted from our mistakes. I don't think we did ourselves justice in pure footballing terms but we didn't do badly. It was 2-1 at HT. The way some people post you'd think it was 4-0 to WHU at HT and we'd been asleep all the first half and most of the second, gifted 3 OG's and to be rescued in the final seconds by an act of god.
