Ref Watch

It’s like that other one when a game kicks off and within a couple of mins there‘s a poor or reckless tackle a bit like the Dallas one but the commentators or pundits usually say it’s too early in the game for a yellow or red card …
One of my biggest pet hates that. If its a card, its a card, no matter when it happens.

I think the powers that be had decided that the Leeds game was their best chance to secure a draw or better and they went for it.....

Unfortunately it didn’t work...we were too good.
Of course, you could tell that when the appointments were revealed. Unfortunately, 4 games is enough for them to stick them on another game before the end of the season.
 
THIS^^^ could be the least productive, and pedantic, argument ever!

OF COURSE, “nobody knows,” but given we all watch lots of football and players on yellow cards rarely make reckless challenges in big games thereafter to protect themselves from a second yellow, it just makes COMPLETE FOOTBALLING SENSE that had Dallas been on a yellow card, it ys highly doubtful he would have made that challenge, especially considering he didn’t need to make it at all!

Indeed, it would have made for a very interesting g afternoon if Dallas had gone up against Grealish for well over an hour with a first yellow card, but Tierney is either bent, incompetent, or both!

Tierney played the big tough guy on the sideline, even though he had a(what should illegal) “behind the hand” conversation with Marsch AFTER yellow carding him, but was dangerously laissez faire on the actual field of play,

As for the Dallas injury, I thought (like most, I assume) his knee would have given way far easier than his femur, which is the biggest, strongest “dog bone” in the body!

The “wrong leg” challenge is so dangerous to players, I’ve no idea why they do it!
The ref was piss poor but people blaming him for a thick footballer not having the sense to go in for a tackle that could injure them or the other player isn’t the refs fault is it?
 
Here's a new one from egghead Gallagher
