Thread: Millers were best fans

    Millers were best fans

    "The battle of the supporters was won by the 'Small Town In Sheffield' ..." Here's my two-page feature on the Owls v Millers Remembrance derby. There's also a piece in the paper and online with Steve Evans talking about the penalty incident and his frustration at not winning. - view external link

    My brother is a Wendy and he said it looked like a penalty from their side. He said he tugged him.

    I was in the West Stand and I admit it was too far away for me to comment.

    I've seen it on telly and NO WAY was it a penalty.

    MASSIVE SHOUT! MASSIVE DISAPPOINTMENT.

    MASSIVE DROP.

    The article was poignant
    The Owls were pungent
    Their fans were repugnent
    Pringle was pugnacious

    I was in North Stand, looked like a penalty from there but on the TV replay, no way.

    To be fair to my brother, he usually says it like it is so when he said he thought he saw a tug I believed him. TV replays show it was an arm across not a shirt pull, which let's face it - may have been a penalty in the 90s but Skrtel from Liverpool would give 9 penalties a game away if they were given.
