When Neil went in with his feet, was your heart in your mouth ? A championship ref may:------

[BLUETIT]

A Championship referee, may have given a pelanty.

Two great stops again last night though.

No

[Seabird]

With the standard of refereeing these days nothing would surprise me. Thought he was kind to us last night, generally speaking.

[Former Labour leader]

My immediate thought was a pelanty.
Could have easily been given IMO.

[J R Hartley]

Thought it was great tackle myself. He gets off his line very quickly, I like that about him. Id like to see some of Etheridges critics hold their hands up as hes been fantastic and getting better as the season goes on.

I also though the ref was decent last night. I did worry he would send someone off, Bennett in particular after his early booking, but in the main let it go. Perhaps a bit too much on times as both sides were getting stuck in, but he let it flow.

Lets not forget they could / should have had a pen for Bambas fould on the edge of the box which they didnt even give a free kick for!

It was outside the box and not a foul.

Never a pelanty. It was a clean tackle with feet on the ground and no studs showing. He clearly got the ball and then the Sheff Utd player went over his legs afterwards. I will admit that watching on tv at first glance from a distance, I was concerned but when they showed the close up and slow mo it was obvious that the ref got it spot on and the studio analysts agreed it was a 'great tackle'.

Second half yes he was kinder to us.
Ref and lino both missed what should have been a pelanty to them, albeit very difficult to be sure of, when Bamba took their man out on the edge of the box right in front of the lino.

That was a fantastic professional foul by Bennett last night, which was well worth the booking!

[Nick]

It was outside the box and not a foul.

Correct on both counts.

I doubted him early in the season due to his distribution.

However, he has performed consistently to a high standard since November and in many games his point blank saves have been as good as I've seen from any keeper in a Cardiff shirt.
