Schmeichel should have seen Red - Trewick

Hereford United manager John Trewick admitted he wasn't sure of the rules regarding this afternoon's penalty when the Magpie's keeper was yellow carded. He thought it was a red card and mentioned a few other incidents during the game.

"Apparantly I'm told the ball was going away from the goal," Trewick told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"Well does that matter? I don't know, I'm not quite sure I understand the rules quite honestly.

"To me it is a red card. The referee was very quick to get his yellow card out, very very quick almost as though he wanted the decision to be over before he has had time to think about it. We have to take that.

"There were other things happening on the field as well.

"I saw one of their players throw the ball at one of our players and he wasn't given a yellow card. I've seen a lot of other things going on on the pitch which I think should have been dealt with. But what can we do?

As regards the match Trewick said he was a little bit disappointed with the performance of the Bulls.

"We never quite got going after Tuesday. And in the end it all just fizzled out into a defeat.

"Having said that when you analyse the game I can't remember them having too many clear-cut chances.

"We had a penalty which we should have scored from, Leon had a good chance with a volley and Marc Pugh went through and looked like he was fouled by the man who was chasing him.

"They were as good a chances as there were all afternoon. So even though we haven't been at our best, I still disappointed not to have picked something up from the game and disappointed to have conceeded the goals in the way we did.

"They were better than us on the day."
