The
game was truly a non eventful, non-descript affair with no memorable
instances at all.
Coming
away thinking what to write in the report everyone came up with
the one phrase, "oh Concorde went over near the end didn't
it?". What a boring drab non-game.
Neither
keeper had anything to do all game. Only Mad Frank nearly had a
shot on target (yes, at his own end of course) and for some totally
inexplicable reason Mr Pugh (standing in for Mr Foy for some reason)
decided he had to get his yellow card tally up before the end of
the season.
Gary
Rowett kind of deserved his. He walked off and threw the ball away
rather than letting Fulham take a free kick. A booking and an extra
10 yards. Poor discipline.
Legwinski
deserved his too, taking Callum Davidson out badly, meaning another
pinged hamstring and Callum out for the rest of the season (again).
But
the rest? Another 6 yellows? Nonsense. It was never a dirty game.
It was too boring and neither team could tackle to save themselves
for it to be dirty.
Sav
was at the centre of two yellow card incidents as usual. As a victim
of one of the few tackles in the game, he flew ten yards up in the
air twirling round and landed like a ton of bricks and didn't move.
Got the Fulham guy booked.
Unfortunately
though he was also booked himself for a "late " tackle.
Never was. As with so many of his cards this season, it was just
because it was Sav. The result? His 15th card, a 3 match automatic
ban, and maybe us never seeing him play for Leicester again.
I'm
sure away fans would think it most ironic and laughable. For City
fans it may be a miserable end to the Leicester career of someone
who has been a great character and a great player for us.
Fulham
wheeled out many a "Fulham legend" before during and after
the game, and Micky Adams got a rousing reception from his old fans.
Other
than that, their fans were embarrassingly quiet. How could you be
like that on terraces for the last game at your stadium??? We were
all just speechless. Pathetic.
Roll
on the spurs game so we can show them how to do it.
