Review:
Another day, another amazing game at The City Ground. This was schdeduled to be our last home game of the season (but now we're in the playoffs we might get one more) and we certainly gave the crowd something to cheer about. On 22 minutes our ex-player Cyrus Christie was red-carded for pushing the ball off his own line and conceded a penalty, but the ref then overturned his own decision, rescinded the red and gave us the goal. Swansea equalized 5 minutes later, before a Sam Surridge hat-trick in 20 second-half minutes put us safe and Alex Mighten got the fifth. Bournemouth won 3-0 so we're still 3 points behind them with our next game against them on Tuesday. What a finish to the season.
