| Well I�ve just got home from the most bonkers of games at the | |
| County Ground and it�s fair to say we didn�t get the rub of the | |
| green from Tom Kirk today. The red card is correct, no arguments | |
| there and Smallwood should lose the armband for that. And the | |
| referee didn�t decide to play 7-1-1 in the second half. But all | |
| the little calls went against us, including a clear YC for SPA | |
| not given to Will Wright for a foul on our full back down the | |
| left wing midway through the 2nd half. | |
| A couple of corners were also incorrectly awarded to Swindon and | |
| I don�t think the reaction from their players towards our centre | |
| half after the winning goal is very sporting. Our players | |
| certainly wouldn�t react that way. | |
| Our captain cost us the game but in my opinion Mr Kirk cost us a | |
| point by failing to send Harry Smith off at 4-4 for a blatant | |
| non footballing action, forcefully barging Shepherd in the back | |
| off the ball. He played a part in the winning goal. | |
| It wasn�t a disastrous day at the office but he�s certainly had | |
| better, the fact a game has ended 5-4 and people are talking | |
| about the ref shows it wasn�t his finest hour. | |

| I�d agree with most of your assessment from the highlights that | |
| I�ve seen. The RC looked pretty clear cut. But the actions of | |
| Swindon players at the end towards your centre back was very | |
| unsportsmanlike. Did anyone get a card for that per chance? | |
| Harry Smith is known for being a nasty piece of work in the | |
| league anyway. There often seems to be some controversy | |
| surrounding him one way or the other | |

| Apologies, misclick! I definitely agree Harry Smith has a nasty | |
| streak in him. See his red at Barrow earlier in the season. | |
