v Millwall

Just saw the highlights. Can someone explain the Hanley penalty and red card? I watched the replay 7 times and I can't see where there was a foul by Hanley let alone a red card. Seems like the ref had it in for us or bet on the game!!

Baffled me too Pooch, It was one of them were it was such an absurd decision I didn't even get mad it just left me speechless and shaking my head in fact I shook my head that much I have a sore neck now.

The worst thing about it is you can't appeal a straight red :/

Yes you can.

Thank heavens this site seems to have speded up. The bosses must have listened to everyone threatening to jump ship..

Anyway I always thought the sign of a good team was the ability to score late goals, and the sign of a poor team was the habit of conceding late goals.
Right now Rovers are bang in the habit of doing both, but because our late goals are later than the ones we concede that means we are slightly better than we are crap..

Does anyone agree?

+ More decent play without Lowe in midfield - co-incidence? I think not..

Having looked at the 2 penalties a few time, I'd say Hanley's wasn't and the 2nd was very harsh. 2 points robbed by poor refereeing on Saturday.

And yes Kenny, the site is less dogsh1t. But is it too little too late?

The two penalties were absolute bobbins, as for the red card. Not for me, it should be rescinded. Some of the refereeing in this league is absolutely shocking.
