    against Wednesday, or god forbid Leeds, I'd be absolutely fuming. I'd be going mad right now.

    I'm all for sportsmanship in football but thats ridiculous. A freak incident occured at half time, and unfortunately the game was abandoned. But there was 45 minutes of football left to play.

    Someone needs to tell the players that Leicester and Forest aint exactly the best of friends. Reality check

    Correct

    As I said on the phone, football players detatched from reality.

    "there was 45 minutes of football left to play"

    And now there's 90 left. Sounds a fair enough compromise to me.

    Having said that, I wouldn't have abandoned the original match . . .

    If Leicester had a man sent off in the original game

    Would they have started tonight with 10 men?

    In fact, why not bring Martin Allen back for one final fling while we're at it

    Why compromise in the first place?

    No need

    I know what you mean. As I say, I'm not even sure why the game got called off anyway. But that was the ref's decision, presumably, and the teams are in a position to compromise on the impact of that decision.
