You're the ones who have spent a lot of money on their team after all! As for Langley - well our manager has withdrawn his criticism after seeing the video. He was far too quick off the mark in making the comments he did straight after the game - having seen what really happened he now accepts that Langley should never have been carded. Anyone who sees the video will realise that cheating and play acting by the Oldham players were the reason for the dismissal. So, no, I'm not being biased at all - I was cursing Langley myself at the game because I thought he had let us all down at the time. A pity the referee has not been man enough to admit he fell for some gamesmanship and recinded the cards - but they never like to admit to a mistake. Don't worry - we have every intention of enjoying the day, irrespective of the result!
