Re: Burnley wrongly denied of a legitimate goal.
I do wonder if the emotion surrounding the game played a part in this decision. The home fixture and remembering the death of the owner in such a fashion could have swayed the decision makers to 'reward' Leicester and enjoy the celebration of 'no goal.' By any reasonable yardstick it was a perverse ...
