Tilson fumes at red card decision

30 August 2009 17:51
The Shrimpers were trailing 1-0 to Scott Cuthbert's strike when Jean Francois Christophe received a second yellow card for simulation in the 34th minute.[LNB]Temitope Obadeyi added a second for Swindon late on before Southend pulled a goal back through Damien Scannell.[LNB]A frustrated Tilson said: "We deserved something from the game. We should have had a penalty in the second half and the second Swindon goal should have been a free-kick on the edge of the box.[LNB]Regarding Christophe's dismissal, Tilson added: "Christophe says he got caught, should he stay down? Was he penalised for getting up? I would need to see it on the video but if he dived then it's a booking.[LNB]"We certainly didn't get the decisions today but showed a lot of spirit in the second half when Swindon didn't do a lot and I thought they were holding on."[LNB][LNB]
