its a joke red card, as they said 11 v 11 he gets away with it but after knob crowd screaming for every tackle he was always going to even it up, whats pissing me off is they keep showing the tackle from the front and back where it looks like both his feet are together, not the side view where you can clearly see one foot behind. also woman on sky this morning said Kompany sent off for a 2 footed tackle, IT WAS ONE FOOTED

Yes but he was sent off for a 2 footed tackle, the official reason of the ref

It's ludicrous there's even people discussing it. That's never a red card. Even commentators of the 'softer' continental leagues claimed it was a perfect legit tackle. Incredible the amount of muppets on social media that seem to think otherwise.

Sadly I feel its not going to go our way

Incredible really, been following it a bit from Belgium on the social media. It's mostly united fans disagreeing and some wayward Arsenal fans with the occassional clueless muppets.
Just heard Poll on talksport and that Irani was feeding him quotes, going on about lunging and 2 footed when people with normal vision clearly see that wasn't the case. Is a really that clueless or forcing some kind of agenda?

well in that case it should be very straight forward to get over turned as video clearly shows it was 1 footed

Re: Kompany red card and appeal

Look, if Kompany would've just stood there he'd been in risk of a serious injury. Wilshere was slipping and would have gone down full throttle against Kompany's feet.
You'd have something similar as the Terry injury against Suarez in the vid below. It's not a lunge, he doesn't take a run and jumps in, he basicly just sits down and sticks a leg out. Now, in what other way is it possible to make a challenge besides doing that? Does my head in they're even discussing it.

There is no such offence or definition mate
 
Re: Kompany red card and appeal

Credit to Schmeichel and Hanson on MOTD2 for clearly stating it was a "hard but fair challenge" but I thought the BBC editorial camera crew on MOTD2 showed the incident 3 times from the same "most incriminating" camera angle.
They did not view the incident from other angles which made it clear VK took the ball cleanly with one foot and in control. I dont know who is responsible for MOTD2 video editing but this seemed on obvious and unfair ommision. Most of the general public will form their view of the incident from the BBC's free to air broadcasting and such lack of independence is disappointing for this major decision.

Yeah totally agree mate. Said to the missus that the angle they kept showing looked bad but that Hansen and Schmeichal were adamant it was not a foul. Then after the prick presenter had been shot down they showed it once from side on which clearly shows it is a tremendous tackle.

Not a big fan of agendas but some dodgy editing going in there
 
Re: Kompany red card and appeal

Whilst i think it was a fair challenge and not even a foul, i think it needs to be viewed in the context of the modern game where only (and wrongly) minimal contact is tolerated.
He was always at risk of being sent off with Mike Dean under pressure to 'level things up' in fact i was surprised that it took so long to happen.

VK has put this challenge in a fair few times and has also seen a number of red cards. Perhaps it is our captain that needs to alter his tackling style to avoid future incidents! His cards are well and truly marked. It didn't matter greatly yesterday but rest assured the same result will occur should he do it again in another big match.

Komps really has won Hansen over! <a class="postlink" href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-city/9799392/Manchester-City-defender-Vincent-Kompanys-red-card-must-be-overturned-or-the-day-of-the-tackle-will-be-dead.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/footba ... -dead.html</a>
