Johnson complained in his post match interview about the validity of our two penalty decisions. I thought they were both correct decisions by the referee. But amazingly (?) GJ did not mention the clearest of them all that was not given before the first penalty. Aden Flint was clearly pushed in the back when chasing a ball along the goal line, going in the direction of the corner flag. He tried to stay on his feet but could not, yet the referee, perfectly placed, did not give it. Yeovil got their just desserts, they did what a lot of teams have and will do to us. Niggly little fouls all over the pitch to break the flow of the game. Very few of them to warrant yellow cards but very frustrating for a side that wants to play football. I thought we handled it all very well, not reacting but even when not on top form, still looking clearly the better side.
Don't like our approach to penalties the keeper called our bluff on Agards and JETs was nerving as well Should be a blast left or right of keeper.
Losing managers always blame the decisions that they claim were a vendetta by each and every referee they meet in a losing encounter and GJ is no different. Allardyce, Wenger and sundry are all tarred with the same brush and can never accept defeat gracefully and that is a blight on the game.
