As much as I respect Warnie's judgement, I just cannot see how Wood has committed a foul on Juoa - it's completely innocuous but the kind of thing that happens when you're rock bottom. Even more curious is why Rotherham's goal was disallowed. Travesty comes to mind but it's what you expect being a Miller. I wonder if the Red card will be appealed - even if the Ref thought there was an infringement, surely it wasn't a bookable offence?!!!

I think PW is being over generous - I was there behind the goal and both decisions were dreadful - our goal was absolutely fine and god knows why the dimwit disallowed it and as for the penalty - Wednesday were throwing themselves on the floor all afternoon and that was a fairly innocuous challenge that should have resulted in nothing. Jury is out on that keeper for me too - he should have been out and snaffled that as soon as he saw them hit the ball over the top, and he'd just booted it to them instead of Blackstock. He wasn't brilliant on Tuesday and kept kicking it out of play or to their keeper. Bring back Camp.

If there is an appeal against the Red card, Warnie's statement that it was a penalty won't help.

Yes it will. Warne is going on the double jeopardy rule. If he admits the penalty, which the ref gave, Wood can't be sent off.

Warney was spot on. Would we be happy if Danny Ward had done that at the end? - yes we would. And it was a case of the player 'winning' the penalty, 99 times out of 100 you would no way see a ref give that - it's too fickle - but to the letter of the law - there is contact albeit ever so slight. I've not seen it back properly but like everyone I can't see what on earth the ref saw before disallowing our goal. However if there is some contact there, the ref has been consistent in both cases. It's a hard luck story, but one which goes with every struggling team at the bottom of every league up and down the country, every season. The back end of last season, we'd have been awarded a goal, and their penalty wouldn't have been awarded - that's how it goes.

We need to brush it off, we need to take heart that Wednesday didn't score an open play goal against us, and is technically a clean sheet - that for me is a BIG plus. If we can start to be that resilient we're always going to be in with a chance of getting some points. Beating Burton & Wigan and the table will start to look much better as January looks very difficult we need as much confidence going into that month as we can muster.

While some of the banter may be sore this week for people working with Wednesday fans, we have to remember - it's not about anyone else, the predicament we're in - its about us, Wednesday are just another opponent
