Arizona Posted 4 January, 2009 Share Posted 4 January, 2009 of course it has refs know the stage, know the age of the players holloway and motson are stunned! If Saints chose to play a team of kindergarteners, they've got to accept the consequences and can't expect any special treatment. There is no reason why a 17 year old should get away with murder, whilst a 35 year gets a red card. That was a dangerous tackle and deserved a red. Bit harder and he could have broken Vidic's leg. P.S. Good to here "we're the Itchen" again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John B Posted 4 January, 2009 Share Posted 4 January, 2009 And another excellent tackle from Skacel on Nani. Perry, Davis and Skacel keeping us in the game. I'm sure those three have something in common, but I'm not sure what... :-k I think they are in the defence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyer Posted 4 January, 2009 Share Posted 4 January, 2009 it deserved a red.. In todays climate where every foul and even non foul is a yellow.

Micky Posted 4 January, 2009 Share Posted 4 January, 2009 Red or Yellow - you have to also take into account that somebody is also assessing Mike Rileys performance as well. It looked a rash, poorly timed tackle - a red for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 4 January, 2009 Share Posted 4 January, 2009 1-0 down to an offside goal at half-time... Better than expected, it's fair to say. Indeed.

JustMike Posted 4 January, 2009 Share Posted 4 January, 2009 Did well for quite a while, but needed luck with 11 men. Game over now which is a shame. Seems the days of referees showing some leniency and appreciating a "strikers challenge" are over. Understand they'll get punished if they don't produce the red, but it never used to be like that. Not only more physical, but there was a bit of common sense when it came to an over-zealous kid, especially a striker. Recall Rooney making many such challenges in his early career and getting warnings or yellows. Now it's just red. Oh well. No shame in losing any amount to the best team in the world with 10 men. Just wish we'd been able to put out our best team. No Holmes, Lallana or Morgan. That's pretty much our attack gone. yes and is Lallana not there for any other reason other than "injured"? im dreading the next few weeks, we could well find ourselves even more in the ****e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerx16 Posted 4 January, 2009 Share Posted 4 January, 2009 That certainly did not warrant a straight red card - he kicked the ball first. If you make a reckless challenge, taking the ball first, ( by a fraction of a second ), but knowing that momentum will take your studs straight into the opponents shin, then the intent is clear and should be punished. What it he'd caught the players leg side on and broke it, what then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
