How was the foul on Dylan not a red card? he was away 1 on 1 , joke of a decision from the officials! Would have taken a point before the game, so more than happy overall, although I do feel like on another day we could have won it.
I don't think it should have been a red card due to 'stopping a goal scoring opportunity' as there was another defender (not that he'd have caught Connolly 'cause he's so fast). But, it surely should have been a red for dangerous play/excessive force? If he'd grabbed a handful of shirt, then a yellow, but flying in on a player who is sprinting, was a red card all day long.
As for our penalty shout, I
*THINK* there is something in the law now about if the ball comes on to the arm, off the player's own body, it isn't an offence? In that case, it was correct. That said, he was a '
ref of two halves', excellent first, awful second.
another example of an official giving decisions to a 'bigger' club 
Should not have been a foul against Fane, he got the ball first - and not a yellow card
