I thought the goal was rightly ruled out.

The first one is an accidental collision.

But the only way Sidibe gets in there is because the contact and obviously...

Yeah, I don't know.

You can't just run into someone, trip them up, and then you're through on goal.

And the lad who's supposed to be defending, Johnston at the time, I mean, what can he do about it?

The only reason Sidibe gets a run on goal is because he's tripped the defender, right?

Yeah, OK.

We're not going to have a fight before the end of the season.

No, but what I will say is the frustration would be probably in the regular season that goal does stand because the referee hasn't seen that the contact is accidental and maybe thinks it's just a natural coming together.

So I absolutely get Dave Challenger's point of view on that.

But for me personally, I just think for the finals, we've got the technology, you're at Wembley Stadium,

Again, as long as they're light touch and it's major decisions, then I think we have to have them.

I completely agree with that, Joe, because, you know, as a player and as a manager now, if I lost the final on a decision that was so contentious and I didn't have VAR when I could have had it, I'd be devastated.

So I know, and I love Dave Chandler, what he's done over the years.

I really like him as a gentleman as well.

But I think on reflection, he'll probably think, you know, it hasn't gone for me this time probably.

But it is so important that VAR is in for a final because you'd hate to go out on a decision of a referee who's had a split second to make a decision and it's the wrong decision.

It would be devastating.

Notts County are back in League One after 11 years away after dismantling Salford City 3-0.
