Abdou's Red made it harder to defend - Turner

Graham Turner felt the turning point of last night's game at Millwall was the sending off of their Nadjim Abdou.

"The worst thing that could have happened was Abdou’s red card. It opened up space and made it harder to defend," said the Hereford United manager.

"The game seemed to be quite in our favour. I didn't sense any real danger.

"But it gave their players a feeling of injustice. It gave their supporters the same. There was a bit of noise. We should have done better in that period.

"I thought Nick Chadwick's sending off was a little bit harsh. I thought he went for the ball.

"There's always that danger that the referee sees it the other way - evens it up.

Inexplicably to some of us at the game Bradley Hudson-Odoi was given an eight for his performance last night. Karl Broadhurst, Clint Easton and Ben Smith each received a seven.
