Oh I do like these away day tours to all the local Wetherspoons,, curry and a pint for £5.98 yesterday.
Anyway, to the football. Nice ground in an odd location on a hill next to the forest. What a noisy place though with those hand clappers issued to all the home fans and the drummers incessant beating throughout.
The game was spoilt as a contest after 10 mins when Ayew was sent off. Both players dived in recklessly to challenge for the ball but Oliver decided only Ayew’s tackle was a red, allowing the other player to go unpunished, and after he writhed on the floor in agony, got up , ran around like a spring chicken, and played the full 90 mins no problem. Yet later in the game Ki was tackled in an even worse challenge and their player received only a yellow. The 4th Official, the horrible and historically biased against us, John Moss, swayed the judgement as seen on tv later, with Oliver going to one side to talk with him.
Anyway desperate and brave defending gave us an unlikely draw with 10 men .
The consequences are that our best forward will be missing for three games, and Oliver could well have decided the fate of the relegation battle with this one action.
