Forest were given a 'free goal' after the last game was abandoned due to leicester player Clive Clarke collapsing.

leicester still had an extra 45 mins to claw back though.
i think the game should have been played for 45 mins ie just the second half

I think it's shite!

The original game was abandoned and a decision made to reply the whole game, why the need to give a goal headstart?

The decision is either made to play the remainder of the game with the players that would have started the 2nd half (without the obvious) from 1-0 (like they did in Spain a few years back) or abandon the match and completely replay it.

The 2nd option was taken so Leicester should have felt no need to do what they did.

It's just Mandaric publicity seeking.

If they had lost and I was a Leicester fan I wouldn't have been happy.

Like I said, a replay of the whole match was ordered not playing the remainder of the original match.
