NIGEL Spackman will study a match video from the Cheltenham game before deciding if the Lions are going to appeal Lenny Pidgeley's red card.

Pidgeley was shown a straight red card by referee Trevor Kettle after 36 minutes with the score level at 1-1 and Millwall in control of proceedings.

But the keeper's dismissal - for allegedly handling outside his area - ensured it was going to be an uphill struggle for his teammates thereafter.

Despite battling for just under an hour a man short boss Spackman believed his side still did enough to come away from Whaddon Road with at least a share of the spoils.

He said: "It is annoying because we worked so hard to get something.

"The players' attitude was spot-on and at times we played some good football.

"I need to have a look at the match video again because I don't know if either the penalty - which looked dubious - or the sending off were the correct decisions."
