19QOS19 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Is this not a mute point. The rules changed in 2016 to say that you don't get a pen and a red card.Yes but the news rules applied to what happened here on Saturday therefore the penalty and red should have been the outcome. If the defender was attempting to play the ball and caught Buchanan it would have been a penalty but not a red. If the defender didn't make any attempt to play the ball and only had hold of Buchanan then it's a penalty and a red. In this instance, scenario 2 is what (should have) happened. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between correct and fair. I have no doubt that Buchanan was using his arms as was Baird and they've wrestled one another to the ground. In that context I feel it would be harsh on Queens to award Ayr a freekick as they've lost out. Equally I think it would have been harsh on Ayr to send Baird off. Hence I thought a penalty was fair. Ok. But you accept then what you have decided is 'fair' is completely irrelevant? Under the rules its a foul one way or the other and if he gives a penalty a red card must follow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 That's a clear red card, lads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 A huge call by the ref for our second penalty claim, resulting in a sending off. On that evidence, I think he got it right though.Aye, agreed.At the time i thought we'd got very lucky as it looked a penalty. On second viewing, i think it's a great decision, and you have to ask the striker why he's going down there. He's beat the man. Unfortunately if it’s a penalty then it’s a red card. Genuinely no idea what Baird is doing - he is goal side so is able to clear the ball. Aye if that's the rule (and I'm sure it is) then we've got lucky there.The biggest concern for me is the performance though. We were dominated for large spells, and struggle to create, even against ten men. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to offer an alternative view as to how McLean arrived at his decision. As you state if he gives a penalty it is a red assuming its a clear goal scoring opportunity and the defender makes no attempt to play the ball. (At least that's my recollection of the rule). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could barely string two passes together and were shelling long balls which is never a good sign. I'll take the three points but we'll need to play significantly better than that to finish top 4.

Homer Thompson Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 The rules are exactly what I said they were, only thing that’s open to interpretation is whether the defender makes an attempt to play the ball and if the foul was deliberate or accidental. It’s a jostle in the box, Buchanan has his hands over the defender to begin with and pushes him with 2 hands to begin with. The defender then loses his footing and falls, flattening Buchanan on his way down. Penalty yes, red card definitely not. By rights it should have been booking for the defender, I’m not sure if he was booked. Exactly what you said they were apart from the bit you clearly didnt know anything about.Well done on still getting it wrong. The only bit that's up for interpretation is whether buchanan has a clear goal scoring opportunity. Any reasonable interpretation would be that he does. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 So we're all agreed Buchanan should have been sent off along with McCowan then? Motion passed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant recall one being a straight red and yet the Queens fans are clamouring for it. A penalty was fair in my view. Also, fwiw some of you seem to be suggesting an attacker can use his arms and a defender can't? That's not even remotely correct. If it's a penalty (which you agree it is) then it's also, by the letter of the law, a straight red. Red cards are not compulsory for committing fouls in the box , the referee needs to decide wither he thinks it’s accidental or deliberate , on this case the referee obviously thought it was not deliberate 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defender obviously knew what he was doing, he hasn't attempted to play the ball, he's denied a clear goalscoring opportunity, it's a red all day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you posting that as if it's a trump card? The point is that the foul could not be described as accidental. Indeed, as quoted in your rules, yesterday's scenario is specifically, explicitly catered for as a red card offence: "Deliberate fouls will still incur a red card. Those include holding, pulling or pushing, not playing the ball". This could not be clearer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that it's clearly holding/pushing/pulling, then the law states he must be sent off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read a number of post from a number of fans they ALL state conceding a penalty is an automatic red card , my point is proving that it’s not , it depends what the offence is , and I have not aired my view previously, but do I think it was a red card ? Yes I do as I thought it was intentional Edited October 18, 2020 by Robbo63 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
