Bramhall Owl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 11 hours ago, Binky Griptite said: Obviously a contentious decision so not as clear cut as the yellow card or red card brigade think. I don't think the referee can see it clearly. The stills show his body shape as the Fulham player crosses his field of vision. He see Mattias start his lunge, he sees the after effect but hes gone from looking in front of the Fulham player to behind him so doesn't see that its a one footed challenge at point of impact. Whether or not it was worthy of a red is as debatable as whether or not he actually saw it properly, if he didn't see it he has no right to give a red card. If it's a red card for the reckless intent then by the same standards MacDonald needed a red in the second half, if Hutchinson didn't 'duck out' of that challenge it was a potential leg breaker. Good point, I'd forgotten about this but at the time, I thought it was a red card. McDonald went flying in out of control and would definitely have walked if Hutch hadn't been sensible (how often do we see the words Hutch and sensible in the same sentence?) and got clattered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a clear sending off offence, but the ref, alongside, saw nothing wrong, and didn't even book him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Snooty Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Wonder if Owlstalk and the morally outraged would have wanted to hound this lad out of the club. Afterall he spent a lot of time in the sick-bay and this was an awful tackle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxtongent Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I personally have only the minor axe to grind with Matias. That is that it was an ill-considered and needless tackle for which he was IMO rightly sent off and left us struggling in our final game. I'm certainly not calling for his head.I can see him having a strong part to play next season, whichever league we may be in. By the same stretch, Hutch was very lucky not to receive cards of some description, but I don't want him to leave either. None of this is any where near the clanger dr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
