Cardiff

No way should Gary Breen have been sent off for an alleged 'elbow' on Saturday. What, I hear you cry? Bias towards the men in gold and black? No, look here. If you watched 'The Championship' on ITV1 on Sunday (just how many channels do they have?), then you would have clearly seen that he was jogging towards the half-way line remonstrating with one of his team-mates (any don't forget it was nil-nil at that stage) with his arms out-stretched. Next thing we know the linesman (I refuse to use the PC version 'Referee's Assistant), as I said the LINESMAN was furiously waving his flag. Let's re-phrase that for the purists - he was waving his flag furiously. You know, it's not that I don't KNOW when I'm using a split infinitive, I don't really care (attitude problem).

Back to the plot. Poor old Gazza - the linesman waved his flag like a Cockney on speed during a drive past by the Queen, the referee walked over, hadn't seen a thing (his Labrador was on flexi-time) and promptly sent poor old Breen off the pitch.

Game over. Four-nil. FOUR - NIL I tell you. Strewth.
