Ha ha! Just saw that now. That's a combination of too much beer and auto-correct on my phone. Let's call it a festive faux-pas!

It seems the general consensus is I've not sufficiently rewarded Stead for his efforts and on reflection agree and think an 8 is warranted. There were a couple of times in the first half where I felt he was looking for cheap free kicks instead of playing to the whistle and so had that in my mind. But, I think that's a bit churlish really considering his overall impact on the game.
