Apologies for being a bit late to the party, but I've been up North all day and am just starting to catch up on P&B. I have nothing on the Donaldson tackle as there were players in the way and I was at the other end of the pitch. However, for the Clyde red card this is the moment of impact. Hendo wins the ball and the Clyde player is a fraction of a second late. I don't have any pics of the challenge before this one so can't say if it was intentional, but it looks harsh for a straight red. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Running upto the ref, gesticulating, literally holding his hand up in the motion of giving a card? I have never known a player to gesticulate the motion of a card to be produced for a sending off, I'd say its the universal sign for a booking and that he was himself surprised that it was a red. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the highlights and didn't see the 'imaginary card gesture' at all. He had his hands up for sure but didn't make the card thing at all as far as I could see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just flailing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never easy to tell how bad a challenge is from a still...from the above you can't tell if the motion of the foot is forward (red card) or downwards as if to pull out the challenge(yellow). For me neither of the challenges on Saturday were red cards...just another example of referees in charge of games that have no knowledge of how football is played, but once he's shown red to Donaldson, he had to show red for this. Consistent, just consistently wrong. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranaldo Bairn Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Yes, I thought that all we are looking for is some consistency. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
