Sheffield United manager Brian Clough was outraged as referee Andre Marriner denied his side what looked like a clear penalty. Chris Porter gave the home side the lead before Michael Doyle was dismissed early in the second-half.
The spot-kick could have awarded the Blades a two-goal lead but instead Rodallega pulled Fulham level three minutes later. Clough said:
“I asked Ryan Flynn if there was contact for his penalty appeal and he said there was. Andre is one of the nicest guys you’ll meet but some of his decisions today frustrated us.”
The Blades manager took his League One side into half-time with a one-goal lead but saw his team reduced to ten-men in the second period, another decision that he believes changed the course of the game. He said:
“I think it did. Even with ten men we were a threat but we had to defend a bit more.

Sheffield United put Fulham to the sword this afternoon and will be disappointed to have not emerged victorious.
Chris Porter gave the Blades the lead after 30 minutes but at the beginning of the second period the Blades were reduced to 10 men as Michael Doyle lashed out. With eight minutes to go Rodallega sent the game to a replay with a clean strike.
Hugo Rodallega had an early chance to give the visitors the lead but he headed Giorgos Karagounis’ header just over the Sheffield United crossbar.
Fulham were forced into an early change as John Arne Riise makes way to be replaced by Plumain, Damien Duff moves to left-back.
As the rain picked up Jose Baxter had a good opportunity to give the Blades the lead from a free-kick in a central area but his strike caused no real danger and went the wrong side of the post.

Date: Sunday, 26 January 2014; Venue: Bramall Lane, Sheffield; Kickoff: 13:00 GMT
League One strugglers Sheffield United will be targeting another Fa Cup upset in their fourth round tie at home to Premier League club Fulham.
The Blades won away at Villa Park to set up this tie whilst Rene Meulensteen’s side needed a replay to get past Norwich and remain in the oldest knockout football competition in the world.
Nigel Clough and United can be confident about their chances as they never lost to Fulham in a League Cup or Fa Cup tie in eight previous meetings. The last time these two sides met in the Premier League – some seven years ago – the Blades recorded a 2-0 win.
Knocking Aston Villa out of this competition is the only victory earned by the Blades in the New Year so far. I witnessed their last outing, a 2-...

A dynamic if occasionally confusing confectionary of Clint Eastwood, David Lynch, John Hughes and George Miller, The Wraith remains one of the definitive guilty pleasures of 80’s sci-fi horror and a perennial favorite for those nostalgia nights in the company of a few select friends, a six-pack of beers and a bag of chips. In spite of its dated synth/soft rock score, awkward dialogue, bewildering concepts and – for the most part – unsympathetic teenage ciphers, it does retain a sleek brio and self-confidence that continue to hold the attention.
The literal borrowings from High Plains Drifter, Shane, The Road Warrior and The Thing are often distracting, but if its influences are plain to see, less visible to the casual viewer are the pain and tragedy involved in its troubled production. With the recent special edition DVD release of The Wraith (review here) from Lionsgate and the 25th anniversary of the film fast approaching,...
