    The cameras didn't get a good view of it but it looked like the defender turned him upside down a split second after he had got the shot away. It was a fantastic goal in the circumstances. The Sky commentator suggested it would have been a penalty had it not gone in. Yeah, right.....like all the other ones we got last night :)

    If it was as bad as it looked then that was terrific work from Conor. His tackling and general get stuck in play has come a long way in the last few months. Multi-million pound player by the summer, no doubt at all

    Ive seen red cards given for tackles like that - definitely should have had at least a yellow goal scored or not - I didnt think there was a rule that said you treat a late, out of control tackle differently if the ball goes into the net to out of play.
    The guy that Scythed down long from behind wasnt even blown up for a foul either, but Brownhill a bit late and straight in the book
