That Derby game...my view

It was right in front of me: Lita was almost certainly going to score and Carroll made an understandable spur of the minute decision to stop him. Straightforward decision for the referee, confirmed by his lino - didn't think there was anything dodgy about it at the time.
As for a betting swing at half time, well maybe - but based on our first half performance I wouldn't have bet on us getting near enough the Derby goal for anyone to throw anything.

        What SCC is saying is that it's about shifting the odds (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Oct 16, 22:35:16
        
        Shifting the odds is all well and good (NCFC) - Charles21, Oct 16, 22:43:50
        
        If you can shift the odds you have an edge that increases your chances of winning (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Oct 16, 22:50:33
        
        well they took big odds on norwich not losing (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 16, 22:52:48
