Again, consistency of decision making by referees when it comes to our players versus opposition players is questionable at best.
If Dinho deserved that second yellow (which he probably did, *just*), Grealish should have been sent off for one of three fouls committed after his yellow, as well. Not to mention he was allowed to show [vitriolic] dissent toward the referee the entire match with little to no response, whereas our players more often than not are booked straight away for any fervent criticism directed at the officials.
What are yellow cards for now? A warning that you only have 3-5 more fouls / obscenity-filled rants before the ref has a stern word with you*?
