This just popped up on twitter. Exact same as what Robbie Deas was (rightly) sent off for Killie against Hearts 2 weeks ago. The only difference is actually a defence to Deas in that he slipped whilst making the tackle.

Another example of inconsistency. Another example of an old firm club being treated preferably to another side.
 
I can think of a couple of posters on here who'll disagree with you!

Infact, come to think of it, Brad Lyons red up at Aberdeen early in the season was also very similar. Both that and the Deas tackle were given as yellows by the referee and upgraded to red after VAR review. No such outcome for the Rangers player.

Consistency would be lovely.

Orange card that one....

In all seriousness, I didn't see the Killie one, but I don't think that should be a red. It's a bit high, but there's no force. Painful rather than dangerous.

Yeah I can totally accept that. Not saying it's an outright blatant red myself, just that we've had two of those upgraded by VAR and consequently have a reputation as being a proper dirty team this season, where as they're treated more leniently. If that (if yer gran has balls etc) was Killie playing up there today and it was a tackle by Joe Wright or Liam Donnelly and not the Rangers boy, they'd be off and I've no doubt about that. Same referee, same VAR, but I guarantee there'd be a different outcome.
