Nice to see Rob Gurney back, reporting on the City!

Not really the same for both then was it? Their player moved his head in and made contact. McNulty stood laughing at him.

How's it a yellow for both?

They have had 2 decisions go their way now, the goal and foul on Grimmer and that decision.

Goes in with the head butt doesn’t get a straight red

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

Was never a foul from Biamou then. Hopefully the ref isnt going to start being a dick.

Yeah he is....

 

[The CableGuy]

Dirty Notts. Should be down to 10 men.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Head butted interesting

 

[sw88]

Their player put his head in then to make contact.

Lino bottled it. Too busy wanting to get in between them but thought the officials were supposed to stay out of it and observe for obvious reasons, like this? So they don’t miss what actually goes on

 

[Ring Of Steel]

I’m quite glad that happened- run down the clock to half time

 

[jordan210]

That should have been a red

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Terrible goal to give away there but a great first half. Plenty to crow about

 

[italiahorse]

Goes in with the head butt doesn’t get a straight red

... because McNulty does the same instead of holding his head and walking away.

 

[Nick]

The lino was in the middle, how didnt he see?

 

[sw88]

McNulty saying to officials about their man directing his forehead in his direction

Max also wants a word with the ref. Form a queue people, form a queue

 

[shmmeee]

Well fuck the penalty they’re lucky to have 11 men. Unbelievable refereeing, this game is going to get nasty if he doesn’t get a grip.

 

[Ring Of Steel]

If McNulty had gone down instead of going back at the guy it’s a red, no doubt about it

 

[SkyblueBazza]

That should have been a red

...& I think a yellow was right for McNulty to be fair

Handbags at the end. I actually think the ref has done okay first half.

The lino is saying "I know" to McNulty when he did the head movement to show them.

Infuriating Notts got that goal and are still in the game , we annihilated them there

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Same as Burge did at the home game, had both hands on him holding him away from the ball.

Yes, but I'm happy to be a hypocrite for a game of this magnitude.

 

[The CableGuy]

Its a joke Notts are back in this. Their goal came from their 1st shot on target, scored by a guy who hasn't scored in 3 months.
Apart from that sloppy moment, its been as good a 1st half performance as I'd dared hope for.

 

[Liquid Gold]

You had to say it but if McNulty had fallen down like he'd been shot they'd have 10 men. Electric half from city.

 

[Nick]

Yes, but I'm happy to be a hypocrite for a game of this magnitude.

No I mean they did it to Burge

It's got to be a red for their guy there, that was a head-butt....

Watch him score the equaliser to take it to pens, which they win

They have had the goal returned and an extra one with that decision.

 

[SKYBLUES90]

Mcnulty didn’t go charging towards him looking for it though

 

[Liquid Gold]

Please don't let this get away from us. Need to play the same game 2nd half and get more goals.

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

Gutted it’s 2-1 we deserve 2 goal lead and momentum
But would have taken that first half an hour ago!

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Well erm , I shaking like a pregnant nun

 

[Nick]

We need to rotate people winding up their player, let Bayliss or Biamou get in his face a bit..

 

[jordan210]

Hopefully we go out second half the same as first and just play our game

 

[Liquid Gold]

Is that 3 of their back 4 on a yellow now though? Keep playing physically.

 

[MatthewWallis]

If that was the other way round their player would’ve gone down. McNulty should’ve gone down and I think it would be a different story

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

No I mean they did it to Burge

Oh. I thought you meant when Burge gave their player an almighty shove in the first leg.

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

After a dizzying 45 mins, I have just had the overwhelming wave of depression at inevitable defeat sweep over me. After near perfection, things are starting to go wrong...
