And some more... Foxy has the controversial incidents on video so you'll have to wait for them.

Not only did we get as little time as possible again on the championship, the camera angles were diabolical!

I didn't realise how blatant the push on Naughts was for their goal too, saw it at the time, but didn't think it was as clear!

Not too bad a ground but the delapidated west stand lets it down badly.

19000 attendance 7k being Blades mirrors the attendance in the other local derby played yesterday. It would seem that the North Sheffield / South Barnsley fan base was split down the middle.

We sat in there to watch the reserves the other season, dilapidated doesn't even begin to describe it...

well the virgin media highlights are slightly better than the championship.

Erm yeah... just slightly.

Da Silva definitely headbutted Ugo as well... definite penalty... definite foul on Naughton for their goal.

What was SJH doing laying on the floor after a tackle from Kozzy just before the penalty? Slightly theatrical.

 

[Bladesman]

Thought Sun caught one in the face.

Why was Da Silva down on his knee's crying?

How the feck can Davey complain about the Penalty decision?

And why the heck did Kenny get booked for time wasting when they had just scored???

 

[Foxy]

Why was Da Silva down on his knee's crying?

I assume in an attempt to not get punished for his part and play up as the victim.

How the feck can Davey complain about the Penalty decision?

He can't really, at most he can complain that the Ref was too inept to see it himself.

And why the heck did Kenny get booked for time wasting when they had just scored???

Booted the ball away, most get away with it, in this instance the referee was watching ready for it.

To be honest, Kenny always time wastes, I hate it when it happens against us so I hate for our players to do it.

Like the other week when the sub hadn't even got into position and kenny got booked for not taking the goal kick? haha!

That was harsh yeah

But he always takes his time and runs to other side of box when he doesn't need to

Which a goalkeeper is fully entitled to do.

Paddy got booked for kicking the ball into the crowd once they'd scored... to ensure they didn't get the ball straight back to the middle. I think the booking was called "taking one for the team"

Plenty of goalkeepers do it. Watch them at the next match. Right footed keepers often go to the right, left footed to the left. It also depends on which side their manager would rather they kicked to, depending on tactics.
Also if they are wasting time it's a useful cover for tossing it off.
