Joe: Penalty Harsh Sat 11th Feb 2006 19:23 Boss Joe Royle felt his side thoroughly deserved their 2-1 victory over Burnley. However, the Town manager admitted that the award of the 80th minute penalty which led to the winning goal was harsh. |
Town 2-1 Burnley Sat 11th Feb 2006 18:55 Town came from a goal down to beat a niggly and tedious 10-man Burnley side 2-1. The Clarets went ahead against the run of play just before the break through Michael Ricketts but a second half goal from Alan Lee and a Matt Richards penalty 10 minutes from time gave the Blues the points. |
