Kmcalpin Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 I was doubtful about Dunne's appeal for his red card in Dingwall and that outcome seems reasonable. His successful appeal for his red card last Saturday was also fair. However, I don't agree at all with Carson's outcome. if referees are going to apply that interpretation of a "clear goalscoring opportunity" consistently in future we could well see a flood of red cards. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcguru Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Not my decision but I've no idea why the club appealed Dunne's Ross County red card. Clearly bundled over a player in front of goal.  Given that club probably have some ex-ref on a retainer to advise them on appeals and it's £1000 a shot, it's all the more surprising.

grizzlyg Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 just my opinion but I can't believe we wasted money appealing Dunne's red card at Ross Co. looked a clear red card to me but glad justice was done for Saints red card. Big man better not have a howler on Saturday!!! COYW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacol Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 For me now consistency throughout the season is what is important, the sendings off by Thompson have to be repeated most weeks now over the season as The SFA have now said this is correct course of action by the referee in upholding the red card. Similarly with the penalty award by Madden in the first game, I now fully expect to see 3 or 4 similar awards most weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big man better not have a howler on Saturday!!! COYW  Got to agree. Was never going to be successful for me.  No surprised his red from Perth being rescinded though as it was a horrific decision. Not surprised Carson's has been upheld as would have exposed Thompson as the completely incompetent excuse for a referee he is. Still not convinced its a clear cut goal scoring opportunity and by the letter of the law should have been a yellow for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellowell Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Seem to be taking a very long time to decide on Jack,s woukd not surprise me if it's overturned as Rangers as Kieran ,s overturned last season when clearly punched someone .

wellowell Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 So Ok to head butt someone as long as not enough force to hurt just like last season was Ok fir Kiernan to punch someone in stomach . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superward Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Looked like two players coming together head to head to me rather than a headbutt. Don't think that ever deserves red cards. Certainly wouldn't want one of ours sent off for that. Seen it plenty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbcmfc Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Carson should've forgotten about the ball and run out and stuck the nut on the guy. Â Â I know calling the Jack one a head butt is a stretch, but for as long as I can remember going head to head and making a forward motion has been a red card every day of the week. The fact Stokes should've gone too is neither here nor there, 2 wrongs don't make a right! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Aye but it's easier to rescind Jack, ignore Stokes and delete any records of Higdon getting a ban for his GIRFUY gesture so they don't have to deal with Lennon's suspended ban.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was against accies so that gesture was fine in my book :-)  http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/30716038 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coop91 Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Carson should have just came and wiped the forward out in the same way as Gordon done for Celtic on more than one occasion last season. That way not a thing would have been done. No wait a minute we're motherwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way not a thing would have been done. Its a fair point. He would probably have got a yellow as long as it looked like a genuine attempt to win the ball. Shows how ridiculous the rules are at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly wouldn't want one of ours sent off for that. Seen it plenty. The footage shown on Sportscene from the referee's viewpoint behind Jack shows him moving his head quickly forward as if trying to butt the Hibs player. I can see why he was red carded and am surprised it's been rescinded. But on the other hand, I'm not - because it's Rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
