Nice, Chesterfield play extra time - good news with Saturday in mind.
Slavetraders get to play another game. Hopefully they will be distracted by playing Everton or West Ham next week.

Hopefully Gary Roberts will pick up a knock or strain....think he'd like to perform at the CG. |

Just as a matter of interest, question to those who have managed to get to more games than me: is there any substance to the accusation of our players falling over too easily? I heard that Swift had been accused last week at Fleetwood...but he has just come from Chelsea... I saw nothing last night to suggest anything untoward; in fact, quite the opposite, as others have noted - a couple of occasions when it would have been easy to try to call a penalty, but they stayed on their feet.

Swift is a bit of a lightweight and has probably been taught the dark arts at Chelsea.
As for the rest, they are no better or worse than all the other namby pambys

Just saw the goals on Points West and one of the shitty supporters claimed it was inevitable that they would win - arrogant prick!!

If we did you'd have thought we'd have had a player booked for diving at least once over the last year or two and I can't think of a single one. |

Thompson pretty much said in the post match interview he went down for the penalty when he felt contact but 99% of players would have done the same.
On the flip side Williams could have easily gone down when he had that chance for his hat trick but he stayed on his feet

Looked like he deliberately crossed in front of the defender then went down when there was contact. Nothing wrong with that, doubt many complained when Owen did similar against Argentina in the WC.
It is a fine line though.

The only real issue there was why the referee failed to issue 2 red cards...one to Nouble for denying a clear goal scoring opportunity, and one to the donkey centre half for stamping on Louis? |

Nathan Thompson at Yeovil this season? Or was that for deliberate handball? But yeah, few and far between really. |

The only question in that incident was how the Coventry player has escaped any sanctions after deliberately standing on Louis' nuts. I can accept the officials missing it, but in retrospect . . . |

I still haven't really got any idea why he was sent off. Pretty sure it wasn't diving but who knows?! |

Wasn't it the old Nat getting fouled, grabbing the ball and then getting sent off for a 2nd bookable?

That was for handball. Though how he could avoid handling the ball after being pushed over onto the ball is another question.
