Controversies surround Blog Playoffs

A close well fought battle was marred by poor officiating and a controversial goal yesterday in the South Central Division Semi-final as Najaf-abad struggled back but fell to Exoticwaverley 3-2. Despite Najaf’s protests and a further review, a questionable goal was allowed to stand. The goal in question gave Exoticwaverly a 3-0 lead and would end up as the winner. Referee/judge/linesman/official Lars Koulderfrump who called the play, did not backdown from his decision and said, "Dem A-rabs could holler all they liked." The game itself was a tense affair and despite lapses in iambic-pentameter Exoticwaverley hung on in the late stages as Koulderfrump repeatedly penalized Najaf-abad for boring pictures. With the win Exoticwaverly moves on to the Southern Central Final.
