I understand where youre coming from mate, it was my first *real* big disappointment because previous to that I was a little young to fully grasp, and obviously the last thing we had that big we won promotion from league one. I hated Cardiff for years after that. Especially Joe Ledley!
The Wednesday one just baffles me. How that referee not only carried on officiating, but to be promoted after that debacle, goes down as the most surreal turn of events regarding football, personally.
I thought Phillips was reckless and gave the ref a decision to make. It was the wrong decision but he gave him the decision to make. I called it in real time and stand by that. I said to bloke at side of me, " f cuking hell, silly bas t ard he,s off". Then the red came out.
But that is why VAR is there mate. To make sure the referee gets the correct decision - it didn't happen, nor did it with our penalty shout. I particularly loved Jeff Stelling's rant about it all lol
