At the time I thought Morrison handled it, but theref didn't blow then played on fur a bit then gave a pen. Having watched it on football league show it seems it may have been for a foul by gunnarson. What were all your thoughts at the time?

Also great save from Moore, how many times has a city keeper saved a pen at home in recent times? Was Moore the first to do so at the new stadium? (Not including penalty shoot outs)

It was a definite penalty. Can't remember the City (looks like it might be Gunnarson) hacked down Chris Martin. It was a daft challenge but couldn't fault the ref's decision. The rest of the referee's performance...........lets say no more about that.

Does it matter at all that the ball was travelling in the opposite direction from our goal and went straight to one of our players? It was hardly a hack at the player, they both tried to do the same (defensive) job and Gunnar was ever so slightly slower.
