Overcompensating
Forest got a 1-1 draw away at Sheffield United Tuesday night.
United are a difficult team, tough and it hurts to say, reasonably good.
The referee sent off a Sheffield player late in the first half after retaliating to a late tackle by our defender. Despite the one man advantage we struggled to get an equaliser. It came though. Then in the last minute Kris Commons was upended in the penalty box. Amazingly the referee booked Commons for "diving". Commons had 6 stitches in an ankle wound. Some dive!
The referee seemed to over compensate for what was a stupid decision to send off the Sheffield player.
Well, we ended up 1-1 and are still in the bottom 4. Amazingly we are still only 9 points off the play off spots. There is still hope.
I shall be back to poker in my next posting, looking ar how to build an online bankroll.
