Shows how desperately unlucky Accrington were last season.

Especially after a ref disallowed a goal they scored on the stroke of half time that would have been the difference between 0-0 and 1-0.

It cost them promotion!

And it wouldn't have been so bad if it was a deep punt to the back post from the half way line, but they worked the ball into the box with short passes, dribbled around, shot from 10 yards and the ref blew up as he was taking the shot!

As decisions go, and how much it cost Accrington, it was the most shocking refereeing I think I've ever seen.

Wasn't it disallowed due to time up? If so I cant see how it could be so 'shocking'.
