From a Southampton forum, overall they seem quite genuine about how well we played, no real complaints

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

Really encouraging all round apart from the novel yellow card for being hacked down. New rule perhaps?

It was introduced by that bent twat Foy for Tevez at Norwich in 2012.

I don't recall Aguero ever going down easy, so I don't understand how the ref could a) deduce it wasn't a pen b) book Aguero for diving! I hope we challenge this ( if we can) and get it rescinded

We can't appeal it unfortunately.

Great away performance by the blues today, I hope we can have more of the same at Sunderland midweek.

We can't appeal a yellow card, but the PL can rescind it of their own volition.
Perhaps we can ask why they haven't if it still stands tomorrow night. We might even ask if they think it was correct. Make the bastards squirm for inflicting these blind tossers on us (and other fans) week after week.

This 100%.
A strong critical line in the media, eg MOTD2 tonight, wont do any harm either in keeping the pressure up on the FA

These are the CHAMPIONS !!! (inclunding Pellegrini)

The second yellow to Mangala was worse decision than not giving the penalty ! Dangerous ref I hope that you found your slippers warm as you returned home....

It really wasn't. The second yellow card was justified, Mangala had to try and get infront of the player and reach the ball but he couldn't get there and had to be booked for it. Yaya's fault for being careless in that kind of position and losing the ball. Although you could say mangala's first booking was careless and unnecessary too.

It wasn t dangerous and it wasn t on purpose..The ref gave Aguero a card for being tackled don t defend him

And what?

Mangala came in from behind, in an attempt to win the ball, and took out the man. Doesn't have to take him out on purpose to be booked.

Never heard of a yellow being rescinded. You could appeal them at one point but not in the last 25 years
