Jackett: Penalty decision was correct

24 January 2010 12:25
The Lions secured their second away win of the season thanks to a hotly-disputed spot-kick in the 57th minute - Neil Harris stepping up to convert.[LNB]Assistant referee David Storrie saw an off-the-ball clash while play was 50 yards up-field. The game was subsequently pulled back and Latics captain Sean Gregan was booked for allegedly grabbing Millwall striker Steve Morison.[LNB]Jackett said: "There was a tussle and as the two players got to their feet one of them had his hands around the other's throat.[LNB]"The linesman saw it and, although it will be no consolation to Oldham, we've had so many penalty decisions go against us that I felt we were due one."[LNB]He added: "We can play better but Oldham are battling against relegation and this is always a difficult place to come. They had one or two chances in the first half but after that we negated their forwards and this is a very good win."[LNB][LNB]
