So not passed back 20 yards then as suggested.

Hard to gauge, but don't see how the ref can change it.

Seeing Clarke's body shape, he was definitely passing it back to keeper, not just re-positioning the freekick. Besides, how many times have you seen defenders leave the ball entirely in that position for the keeper to take the freekick ? Grimsby got found out and they're pissed about it :) Regardless, Grimmer's goal makes the lead justified anyway :p

Good reffing for the goal from mcnulty. As has been said he had gone to take the free kick already, but changed his mind when nothing was on, so it was his own fault for passing it back. Good reaction by Mcnulty.
Good ball in for the corner as will for Grimmers goal.

Yeah, agree. Watched 4 times now and that looks like a pass back from the free kick, not a leave for the keeper.
