Quotation Marks.png

MATCHDAY QUOTES

"It was a blatant penalty. He pushed it away with his hand. I was horrified the referee [Alan Saunders] didn't give it.

“He was badly positioned and when I protested he said he honestly didn't see it."

Gary Shaw.


"It was there for everybody to see. It's sickening.

“Their lad [Kevin Richardson] definitely pushed it out with his hand.

"Two goals is a big target to pall hack but it is not beyond us. Looking tonight I never saw anything in the Everton side to make us fear the second leg."

Tony Barton.
