" TOM HEATON HAS LAST LAUGH "

Undeserved blast for Tom Heaton
by Terry Phillips, South Wales EchoJan 28 2012



CARLING Cup idol Tom Heaton was the target for an unfair and unnecessary tongue-lashing as he walked from the Cardiff City Stadium car park towards the players entrance this week.

“You’ve cost us a place at Wembley thanks to your mistake in the first leg,” yelled the fan towards a shocked Heaton.

The verbal assault was unfair because Heaton had already played a huge role in helping the Bluebirds through major Carling Cup tests earlier in the competition.

But Heaton had the last laugh, with a clean sheet against Crystal Palace in the second leg and those penalty stops in the shoot-out.


I’m banking on a written apology being delivered to the stadium – or maybe it has already arrived.

Heaton deserves it.

Apology? do you think he will get one?

Dai Hunt has since written a letter to Heaton and Wayne Nash, apologising .

Dai sent one, but told us all in the Ninian Pub on Tuesday night that Heaton had apologised to him.

only in Dai's mind

Heaton is lucky it wasn't Harry Redknapp who insulted him because he would never get a written apology from him!
