Laws upset after 'cruel' result

Sun, 08 Nov 14:18:53 2009

Sheffield Wednesday boss Brian Laws felt that his side's 2-1 defeat at home to QPR was not a fair reflection on the game.

Jay Simpson gave Rangers a 10th-minute lead, firing beyond keeper Lee Grant after latching onto a great through ball from Abel Taarabt, but Jermaine Johnson struck a equaliser just three minutes later after being sent clear by Darren Potter.

Both sides then came close during an entertaining encounter before Kaspars Gorkss snatched a late winner for the visitors, meeting Alejandro Faurlin's corner with a firm near-post header.

"We didn't deserve that," said Laws. "We did enough to win, but football can be cruel at times.

"We scored a great goal and after that I thought we were in control of the game. We feel like we've had our pockets pinched. It wasn't even a corner (for the winning goal) but the referee was so inconsistent with his decisions. Corners and free-kicks were given when they shouldn't have been."

Laws had little sympathy for transfer-seeking defender Richard Wood, who was booed when he came on as a substitute. He said: "The crowd reaction tells you they're disappointed with him and he's got to take it."

  2. Where are the pithy comments re your useless­ organisation from your equally useless mate rodders? ­ Or is your web page so infrequqented that he is too­ stupid to find it? Was he one of the fabled folk that­ wandered round Marcliffe Secondary School in pairs? ­ You know the types---one to attempt to read,­ t'other to attempt to write! At least we have it­ confirmed from his own hand exactly which one rodders­ was!

  5. REMEMBER THIS Brian Laws hopes a battling 1-1 draw in­ the face of adversity at Bristol City will prove a­ turning point in Sheffield Wednesday's season -­ WRONG
    AND THIS Sheffield Wednesday manager Brian­ Laws is hoping to mark the end of his third year in­ charge at Hillsborough this week with victory over QPR­ on Saturday - WRONG
    AND THIS AND I QUOTE
    "This­ also sends out the message that Sheffield Wednesday is­ a club moving in the right direction and one that is­ not looking to sell its best players'' -­ WRONG
    BRIAN MATE THE DIRECTION IS DOWNWARDS, AND THEN­ YOU DEFLECT THE @#$% RESULT AT TRANSFER SEEKING WOOD,­ HE WANTS TO MOVE BECAUSE YOU ARE USELESS, AND TO THINK­ BURNLEY WANTED YOU, LOOK WERE THEY ARE NOW
