The similarity between Leeds Utd v Aston Villa and Celtic v Motherwell are striking in as much as a goal was scored through an act of unsporting advantage
The difference being the Leeds manager instructed his side to allow Villa to score a 'walk through' goal whereas Stephen Robinson did not instruct his Motherwell side to accord Celtic the same courtesy
Indeed the Ulsterman used every excuse he could think of to wriggle out of admitting he got it badly wrong by not instructing such an outcone
He told the media that he didn't know what to do He said that the player was inexperienced a BABY I don't ever recall seeing an 18 year old BABY If he felt that his player/team had embarrassed Motherwell FC by their antics then HE should have taken control of the situation but decided not to do so
I think the actions of Leeds Utd today has showed Robinson and his Club up as being both underhand and unsporting and will possibly further add to their embarassment
But the again... Probably not
HH?
