Colney Heath 2 Sun Postal Sports 1 1998/99 Aubrey Cup Semi Final
Hand of fate deals Sun a nasty blow in Aubrey bid
The perfect start turned into a nightmare for Sun Postal Sports as their bid for cup glory was dashed on Saturday.
All seemed to be going according to plan in the Aubrey Cup clash with Colney Heath when prolific midfielder Mick Woolner gave Sun a fifth minute lead.
But five minutes later the same player received his marching orders for hand ball - a decision hotly disputed by the Sun bench.
Following a ball into the box, Woolner seemingly put his arm up to defend his face.
A penalty was given and Woolner red carded.
"It was very disappointing," said Sun's Terry Hows.
"The worst scenario should have been a penalty, but it was not a sending off. It ruined the game."
Colney Heath converted from the spot and then took the lead before half time.
They then squandered more chances to lengthen their lead after the break but the score remained the same.
