The Ref, Bit of Luck

For a change,

It's a nailed on penalty - that's what it should have been and player getting getting sent off

Not sure about that on the highlights it looks as if both of them were wrestling each other. why would that be a penalty?

Broadfoot gets wrong side of his man

I wasn't there on Saturday.  I was in Sheffield paying lots of money to watch a collection of prima donnas prancing around.  No, not Hillsborough - I took my youngest daughter to watch ballet at the Lyceum.  Anyway, having seen the highlights I get what Ex is saying.  Broadfoot wasn't looking at the ball at all.  It may have been six of one and half a dozen of the other, but the consequence for them getting blown is that they waste a corner and the consequence for us getting blown is that its likely a goal conceded.  Why would you run that risk? 

Great to see Yates get a poachers goal.

Great to see Adeyemi (as his fitness improves) increasingly often getting on the end of stuff in the box.

Not having a go at Broady at all, hes been a great servant, it's one of those you get caught with during the 10 games or so you come back to full match sharpness, just appeared to be a pen (I'm sure we'd have been shouting for one)

I think he got away with it because there was lots of holding for both players and they were pretty static rather than the type when you see a player pulled back..he didnt get that chance to move too much as broady had pretty much nailed him down before he could.

Even if it was a pen it would still have been a sending off. In all the games i went to see the refs were constantly blowing for tussling in the corners. May be its a tactic they are employing.
