The referee didn't seem to notice, only that the ball was at the back of the net, so a goal was given. Finally, the parking ticket placed on the Sendale coach by traffic warden and Brampton winger Nick Dutton after the game was justly deserved. His condition is said to be stable. Thorsen himself, out on bail, categorically denied any suggestion of premeditation but declined to make an official statement until after his court case. Bugger was not available for comment.
Opinion is divided as to who was winning at the time, but a replay is to be arranged.
