To be honest and fair, it was incompetence from all three teams, with the team in black having the most culpability in allowing it to happen.
Sorry Deepcut, that is just plain utter ridiculous!
So the onus was on Bradford to not let Exeter cheat?
The ref should of course have had a handle on proceedings, but very much the main responsibility lies with the perpetrator.
Try using your logic in crime...girl's fault for being attacked because of how she was dressed?
Knife victim's fault for being in the wrong place at the wrong time?
Exeter were the perpetrators...but they get another crack at the cherry whilst Bradford (every club has its Lee Gearys) fans are penalised with another ridiculous long midweek haul.
At the very least, make Exeter play again at Valley Parade...as it should always be known!
