The referee's performance will be subject to some debate with the subsequent cards from two penalty decisions giving Graham Turner more fuel for his recent criticism about the consistency of referees.
The Bulls lost 3-1 in a game that was always Leicester's for the taking, but inconsistency from an experienced referee left a bad taste in the mouth.
Northants referee Richard Beeby dismissed Trent McLenahan for allegedly pulling down the Leicester forward with Wayne Brown to beat, but Foxes keeper Conrad Logan received only a yellow for hauling down Stuart Fleetwood as the last man.
Only last week Turner criticised the penalty decisions given against the Bulls in his Hereford Times column, and tonight's events will only fuel his anger.
Full report later.
The Bulls will also be noted in the referee's assessors report after the assessor was confronted by an angry Bulls fan who let fly with a verbal volley about the referee.
