I think the embarrassment should really lie at your manager's door, not ours. Good lord..maybe an idea to read the laws before describing the letter of them. Thats never ever a red card and Kennedy's reaction IS embarrassing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His constant harping about offside on what looks pretty clearly to be a superbly timed run combined with a step up from Donaldson that's half a second late makes him look hilariously stupid. The making out of a simple push away to be GBH too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Everyone's biased about there own team, but I don't see how anyone can say with a degree of certainty that the Airdrie player is definitely offside from that camera angle, if we had VAR then he might be off by a toe, a knee etc. But from that angle he just looks pretty level. By the letter of what law would McCabe be sent off? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the letter of what law would McCabe be sent off? Would not described it as a hit or a punch but he does lift his hand and push the guy in the face, Kennedy then makes a meal of it. Not sure what the rules are exactly but I have seen sending offs for this, particularly watching European football where it seems there doesn’t need to be much contact at all for a ref to act. At best it was silly from McCabe and as the manager he should know better. Edited February 26, 2023 by LatapyBairn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that raising your hands and making contact with an opponents face was outlawed and resulted in a red card at one stage. It may well have been an instruction to referees at the time to try to stamp that kind of thing out? At what point would it be deemed a red card? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At best it was silly from McCabe and as the manager he should know better. Watching the Chelsea game there they just had a red card rescinded for what looked like a far more severe contact. I don't see how by any letter of any law it's a red, especially when a ref has just looked at that incident with multiple angles etc and decided it's no. It's a yellow for McCabe, and a "Mon tae f**k" for Kennedy IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be considered to be a red card if he actually struck him to the face. Which he didn't. Highlights just show him making an absolute tit of himself after getting shoved away. He's been watching too much of Morelos. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks it due to the space between Donaldson and Gallagher, makes it look like Gallagher's well offside. It wouldn't look so clear cut if looking along the line though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senor Bairn Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I for one am absolutely furious that McCabe wasn't sent off and Gallaghers goal wasn't called offside. Pivotal moments in the game in which we ran out easy winners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Connolly, you are doing something right Definitely offside btw. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
