I don’t understand how it was a second yellow card. Surely any infringement there is denying a clear goalscoring opportunity and is a straight red.

Its a good show a difficult task to fit all that football in! Hence very short clips, you can get highlights from the Stoke youtube channel as well, but not until the Monday.

Absolutely, they are featuring games involving everyone outside the Premier League, in other words 72 football league clubs. The beauty of it is you don't have the likes of Shearer and Murphy chatting shit for longer than the edited highlights. |

Still doesn’t make sense to me. Benik was clean through on goal so any infringement, regardless of whether it’s a push, a trip, a handball or whatever, should be a straight red card for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity. |

Maybe and maybe the ref did him a favour by giving him a second yellow rather than a straight red. He won't have been the first to do that. |

I was about to try to correct you and say the professional foul rule changed a couple of years ago so refs could choose to give a yellow instead of a red, but I didn’t realise it only changed for fouls inside the box. www.premierleague.com/news/66192So you’re right, the ref probably should have given a straight red if he thought he denied a clear goal scoring opportunity. |

It should have been a straight red, but I think the thought less paperwork if I give a second yellow. It also stops them appealing it. He said something to the linesman as he was walking to the changing room, after which the linesman was in conversation with the ref. Although it may have been just a case of the ref seeing say something, and he asked the linesman what was said.

I think luck was on our side on Saturday as it was never a sending off and Joe Allen’s foul on the edge of our box that the ref gave nothing for was a certain foul.

Don’t be obtuse, he didn’t get a second yellow (rather than a straight red) because it was a handball, he got a second yellow because the red bottled the decision in a way. It makes no odds at all to us, but it does mean that he’s not suspended for their huge game with Norwich in a couple of weeks. EDIT - I’ve now remembered that denying a goal scoring opportunity is typically only a one match ban anyway. |
