Barrow

Yes, seeing it on the telly Thibaut was a good couple of yards outside the box. Surprised Barrow didn't make that point.
Another great game from our new winger, Tabiner😉. Agius also showed himself in a better light playing wide right. Is this the new way to improve performances, shove midfielders out to the wing? Long may it continue - I've always liked good ball-playing wingers.

Not a couple of yards surely, just watched and it was closer than I'd expected, may or may not have been about on the line at edge of box by the time he clipped him, hard to say. OTOH the defender clearly was the last man, which was what we were debating at the time in the ground, the other gut racing back wasn't level with him and Thibaut yet. Maybe the ref (who by and large was about the best we've had so far) was thinking it was close for the pen or a free kick, and didn't want to send off/book a man who might be shown not to have been in the box when he watched it later!

Double jeopardy rule. No sending off for “last man” AND a penalty.
That’s why KLB shouldn’t have been sent off.

Indeed but JKL a yellow would have been OK, and similarly on Saturday.

With regards to the penalty, 'All Access Alex' were filming on Saturday, and had a very good view of the incident from the Gresty End.

Fully recommend watching it on YouTube - really good angles on all 3 goals.

Just as an aside, O'Riordan and Lowery look really happy and relaxed in the Video (IMO)
