….Ipswich start losing, and you suddenly reappear.

A strange and yet blindingly obvious coincidence.


It's just an incredible coincidence.

Would be like the Wolves thing with their goal against Liverpool in the FA Cup wrongly ruled offside. All they can do is say 'yeah, sorry ref made an error there' and move on. Can see why the club would want the confusion cleared up but not going to get anything out of it.


I don't think it's the same at all.

One is an error of judgement and we all accept that these things happen and can cancel each other out. The other was if you like a point of law.

I see no similarities whatsoever.

Circumstances different obviously but think it's the same in terms of likely outcome. We can march into their office (so to speak) armed with as much evidence as we like and I doubt they'd say much more than 'sorry but you played on and lost'.

Might have more of a case if the match ended in a draw as both teams could say they were denied a fair chance of winning but Oxford obviously aren't going to agree to a replay now and will counter argue that an agreement to play on was met at the time and that's that.

I have to say though the more I think about it the more a ridiculous situation I find it - bizarre that if the ref thought this rule existed he didn't warn the managers some time beforehand.

Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.

'sorry but you played on and lost'.

But that's the whole point, we didn't want to play on but were incorrectly told that the rules would then state that the result was final.

It wasn't a missed offside or penalty, it was an incorrect point of law by the judge on the pitch and I demand a retrial baby!

Clearly there is some kind of black magic curse upon us.


Tis a gypsey's curse, not voodoo.

For real.
