FrankChickens1 Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Seen the var replay on the live stream. If you pause it with his foot above the St Mirren lads ankle it's a clear red. Scottish ref would always give it. There's a part of me thinks the real time video isn't as bad as the still image and we shouldn't be focusing on still images but probably overly optimistic. Zero intent but most refs probably give it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 St. Johnstone's tottie field of a pitch has resulted in the red card. It wasn't dirty as such but when you see it on replay, it was most definitely a potential broken ankle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Makes it even funnier when we lose 1-0 Flynn is very lucky not to have a broken ankle. It wasn't intentional imo but it merits a red card all day long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Are refs just playing it safe now with yellow cards and assuming VAR will intervene to allow them to change their mind? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flynn nipped in before him and nicked the ball and he's been caught upper ankle, lower shin. It's a nailed on red card but I don't think it was dirty or malicious as such. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munoz Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Disgusting tackle. We've been the better side so hopefully can make the advantage count second half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the other side it barely looked a foul but we obviously can’t see where the contact is. No chance of any malice, he’s turning on the ball and trying to take it out wide and has presumably had it taken off his toe? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, aye. He’s a couple of yards away, he can surely see it. VAR check was rapid too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Sanchez Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I'm incognito in the home end here and the fans around me were snorting in disbelief when the ref gave a foul for the challenge on Flynn, never mind what came after. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) The banner blocks contact point but you can get the general idea. Flynn is very lucky his leg's not broken. 20230225_155758_1_1.mp4 Edited February 25, 2023 by djchapsticks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints so unbelievablely predicable in there style and patterns. At least we can play the second half "more like an away game". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 So I’ve just seen it back from the guy behind me in the stadium and I can see why a red is given. No intent but he obviously catches him on the ankle and it’s a sore one. Zero consistency though when you remember the red card Ryan Jack wasn’t given at Ibrox for an absolutely intentional tackle that almost took Montgomery’s ankle off. One guess why that wasn’t given… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell them it was 100% merited. As I’m sure they’ll agree when they see it. Telling that the ref took so little time to change his decision and seemed to tap the monitor to say thanks for helping him get the decision right. Malice or not that was the very definition of a dangerous tackle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance of any malice, he’s turning on the ball and trying to take it out wide and has presumably had it taken off his toe? I thought it looked a pretty soft foul. I suppose intent no longer matters. If you catch someone - accidentally or not - it's a red. The ref didn't take much convincing, looked at the monitor for about 5 seconds and, to be fair to Phillips, he didn't complain so I'm guessing he expected it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
