Lets move on from this anyway. Poor referee. Robbed of 2 points. Little old Forest got the best result of their season in their big day out. Lets hope for wins agaits Bury and then Southampton.

Agreed. We move on, bloodied but unbowed..

"But he aint a Leeds fan, he can't stand Leeds."

He's not all bad then.

So the ref made Kasper make him book him ans then throw the ball out? then make Weale miss his catch and stopped us from scoring in the other 89 mins? Also in the first half when we where on top?

He gave a penalty we will get a dodgy penno later this season will we bellowing about the injustice of that?

Rant over! A good point and we are getting better.

Nev, is was never a pen. Clearly ball to hand and no clear goal scoring opportunity. Mills didn't even know where the ball was when it rolled forward underneath him and brushed his hand.

Re Kasper getting the second yellow, one of the Forest players (think it was Boeteng) roosted the ball into the STAND when Nugent scored the first and he wasn't booked.

Also, Boeteng comitted a foul at the far post for the winner.

I don't mind losing or drawing when we haven't been good enough to win, but to lose points solely on the incompetence of the officials is hard to take. There's no way Forest were as good as us on the day and they still got a point - thanks to the men in black.

I don't think it was a pen either unfortunatly the Ref did.

Boatang did what every striker would of done im sure the Ref did not spot it because he was watching Weale flapping in the wind.

Kasper is responciable for us losing not the Ref if he had not been so petulant we would of had 11 men on the pitch (enough to Mark Boatang) and would still of been winning 1v2.
But its only my opinion its to easy to blame the ref for the defeat rather than just giving a pen that never was.

But why was throwing the ball up the pitch after the goal had been scored deemed a yellow card offence?

It can't have been dissent as Kasper had already been booked for that after the pen had been given.

It can't have been time wasting as it was our possession. We had kick off.

The ref was still smarting from Kasper's initial reaction for which he had already been booked. The ref lost it, lost control of the game and control of himself. If he was put in that position another hundred times, I bet you he would not give the second yellow again.
