Motherwell and Aberdeen play out a draw

[sword_of_truth]

Overall a draw was the right result although it was sickening to lose a late goal in such an unsatisfactory manner. By my reckoning, in our games against the Dons this season, we've been on the receiving end of 3 bad penalty decisions in the first home game; had a perfectly good goal chalked off in the CIS Cup game; been denied a stonewall penalty at Pittodrie, and lost an illegal goal yesterday. Surely that run of luck can't continue?

Yesterday the ref spoiled the game. I thought Hutchinson was unlucky to be yellow carded in that he plainly went for the ball and got it. His momentum carried him through. Why the BBC made so much of it I don't know. By comparison Peter Pawlett's tackle was a shocker and he deliberately went for our man. A correct yellow card bordering on a red. Keith Lasley committed a stupid foul and was rightly booked for it. Flood committed exactly the same foul and got off with it.

He never got the bal

Thought Lasley was fortunate not to go for second bookable when he wiped out Flood near the end.

I know the incident to which you're referring and thought Las was pushing his luck although a yellow card would have been a tad harsh. By the same token, Rooney could easily have picked up a second yellow card for leaving the field to celebrate with the away fans.

C'est la vie, its all history now.

Always angers me when you see a player being booked for celebrating a goal, imagine that?

Or Refs are up their with the most inept in Europe

Thems are the rules although I personally don't agree with them.
