Now I'm not normally one to get all paranoid regarding these kind of games after a losing bet, but Christ almighty, the penalty that Girona got given in that match has got to be one of the worst penalty decisions I've seen in a long time.

Not that it really matters in terms of the bet, if Hercules can't score then they can't win so the bet would still have lost even without the penalty. But for Hercules to be mysteriously drifting throughout the day and for Girona to get a soft penalty like that with 10 minutes left looks more than a little suspicious to me.
