VictoryBell 1,474 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 It's hard enough playing the other team without having to play against the referee and linesmen, as well. Appropriate quote from the great Gerry Young (1970, I think) Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a straight red - Windass has put his knee and foot pretty much in his face If he went in with his head, like any normal footballer would then it’s just a clash What's wrong with that? Perfectly acceptable. Wouldn't have even been a yellow in the 70's and 80's. Link to post Share on other sites

You go in with your head or a toe flick. Go in like Windass and it’s a clear red if you miss the ball. Look at our players. They knew instantly. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

It wasn’t. It was a coming together, nothing more. If that’s a red card, football as we know it really is dying. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Let’s see if he’s consistent when them dirty b@st@tds stick the boot in, which they will do but we all know the answer to that question, don’t we? Link to post Share on other sites

Ante's Bubbly 1,698 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Four red cards in 12 games. Coincidence or conspiracy? Nothing new from us before tge card except all our defenders and Luongo are back, yet we look very poor. Link to post Share on other sites
sagesse 363 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Wasn't intentional. Didn't look at the man, but his boot went into the Preston player's neck. Stupid tackle. Link to post Share on other sites

Would be a bit like setting the narrative about a manager before we’d even employed them Completely agree. Thinly veiled dig at Pulis. Poor really. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

I honestly don't think we would. It was clumsy, but the only reason it made contact with the Preston man's face was because he was stooping down into Windass' foot. The fact that none of their players seemed to be appealing for a red card is quite telling, in my opinion. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

TheOwlsofDodworth 975 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Red card without a doubt. Studs in the blokes chest! Dropped us in it. Really daft thing to do, that. John Pearson is wrong. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I know the rules of the game but the opposing player was ducking in to it a bit which seemed to make it marginal at least. Link to post Share on other sites
