    I can't recall many of those incidents, the only one I think I might remember was the Hobbs one. Do you mean in the South-West corner in the first half on the edge of our box? That was a very good tackle but the attacker made a bit of an unecessary fuss of it.

    I've moaned plenty of times about stupid cards but they were pretty sensible yesterday. He was right to let Chester off the first time but couldn't let him get away with two fouls in that position. I can't remember the card that BC got but I remember thinking it made sense at the time.

    Yeah the one with Hobbs was the South West corner. From where we were it looked no different to the two Chester fouls. (in terms of freekick giving, card wise the position was less critical so it probably wouldn't be given). The Bristol City booking was pretty similar to the Chester one as well.

    The Koren incident was when he got the ball on the touchline infront of the steps between E4 and E5 in the first half. He knocked the ball round the left (Koren's left) side of the defender with spin to the right and went to go round the right of the defender to get on the end but the defender making a challenge got in the way. Again it was similar to the Chester tackles, just without Koren having momentum to start with. Like I say, you appeal for it at the time, but you're not particularly bothered if you don't get it because it's 50:50 really. With Chester having just been booked for something similar you use it to try and influence future decisions from the ref by making more of a fuss. That one I was mentioning as a defence of the ref, the crowd were on his back but it wasn't really a bad decision.

    The McKenna one was poor though. We got the freekick so he clearly saw the foul, but it was a kick the the ankle or heel a little too late to be innocent. It just gave the impression there was no attempt to get near the ball. Didn't full on boot him up in the air or anything, but it had McKenna on the floor and he didn't just jump back up and carry on immediately (probably about 10-15 seconds he stayed down). That was just in front of E6 (so south half of the pitch), about midway to the centre circle.

    The other bizarre decisions I can't really remember, they were generally in our favour though because I was laughing about them rather than being annoyed. It'll be things like obvious BC throwins being given to us.
