' Paul Trollope Went to see the Ref '

Paul Trollope in yesterdays interview

Saturday 24th September 2016

I went to see ref after Leeds, it was a penalty. I’m not disputing it was a penalty.

From our viewpoint, it was needless one, as the ref had gone in the corner before to warn players.

It was a bad decision from our defending.

If they’re going to be that strict on it, you could see a lot of penalties like that this season.

Yes. It was a penalty. But so were one or two for us in first half! All over each other.

Ref was right to warn both sets of players. But poor game management in my opinion award them one the first time our defenders did it! I don't think anyone would've screamed about it being a definite pen if he'd have let it go. The half time chatter about the shirt grabbing/climbing would've just continued.
