Will I still be angry at the next derby? Yes I will. And I hope we get Margetts and co again, because I want to boo the bejeesus out of them.
Oh, and if you have any doubt about it being htb, just imagine it was the other end of the ground and it was (say) Suban or Ballantyne run down from behind. The commentators would have been gently tut-tutting about lack of awareness and it would have been a free. It would have been a free even if the umps had their eyes closed.
In Ross's first derby I sat amongst the slime and exactly the same thing happened and again, it wasn't htb. I called it, and the aged and entitled chardonnay sippers piped up, telling me to be quiet and let the umps do their job. I nearly died from an overdose of irony.
