Surprised 11:44 - Oct 4 with 1554 viewsportmanroadblue

No one has mentioned the possible sending off of the MK goalscorer?

Also, how poor the ref was, couple of times we had good tackles pulled up in good positions.

Overall, felt a lot of town players were under par yesterday, Holy, woeful with crosses, Chambers seemed to bottle it against Harvie after the of the ball incident, midfield went missing, poor distribution on numerous occassions, no real urgency or movement from Edwards or Sears when we won the ball back unexpectantly and injuries to Ward and Downes didnt help.

Only real standouts for me was Toto and Hawkins.

I did.

My position is if something is bad enough that it's worthy of a yellow - but it happens in an off-the-ball incident - then it must be pretty close to a red. I also pithily said that you could bet your bottom dollar it would've been red if it was the other way round, sod's law and all that.

The commentators were wondering if it should've been a red too.

Hard to say without seeing it but the chances must've been very high.

I bet Bloots will downarrow this.

Sorry, must have missed your comment, I think the 4th official brought it to the refs attention, but as you say, if it warrented a card, it had to be red.

The whole incident was hopelessly refereed. I saw Harvie kick Chambers right in front of the dugouts. Referee let play carry on for a minute or so, Nsiala tried to put the ball out of play, Lewington deliberately kept it in at which point the ref decided to blow his whistle for the injury, spoke at length to the fourth official, eventually booked Harvie and awarded us a free-kick. Should definitely have been a red.

I was listening to the MK commentary at that point (only found out how to change it later thanks to a post on here) and both commentators were adamant it should have been a red.

It’s hard to mention or analyse something that no one saw.

No one can say what happened when they didn’t see it on camera.

I'm pretty sure deliberately kicking someone off the ball is a red card offence!

I think Phil was probably there, so not relying on the pretty poor camera work. It wasn't shown on camera.

Didn't see your post initially. Fair enough if you saw it and that's what happened, but you had people on here calling it a red without seeing it or hearing from anyone that had seen it.

Yeah, this really doesn't prove your point. You said it was a red without having seen it or listening to anyone who had seen it. You didn't even know it was a kick at the time.

I think only me and the MK Dons commentator seemed to see it as there were a few asking what had happened in the press box. I just happened to catch it.

As I said to you yesterday, if something's bad enough that it warrants a yellow (i.e. it's deliberate) and it's also off the ball, then there's a very very high chance it should be a red. I can't really think of why it would be a yellow.

You said my view didn't make any sense and I had "lost my head."

Kicking someone is a red card whether it's off the ball or not. You said it was a red without knowing what happened. That's just silly. If it's as Phil described then it's a red, but you've only just become aware of that information.

My point was if it was worthy of a yellow it was worthy of a red, whatever it was. I didn't need to see it to reach that conclusion, and I've been proved right.
