It is true that Bennett is only human and made an honest mistake - not one made out of spite either. What irks some people though, Paul, is that he hasn't admitted the mistake when all of the evidence of the case reflects it so clearly.

If we could score goals the entire squad could have giggled throughout the entire evening because we would have been 2-0 up from the first leg and 3-0 up by half time. Passion isn't the problem. Laughing isn't the problem. Putting the little round white thing in the big net is our problem. We could have huffed and puffed with a team as fired up as Carragher on derby day all night long and we would still have not got through because we cannot perform the most basic function of football.
