Deluded Bristol City

[originaltrueblade]

Trying to appeal a nailed on red card

 

[ForgeBlade]

Football isn't it? We look at it and we see a certain red. Dickie had pulled Moore back/down way before he made the "attempt to play the ball" so it's a certain red. However, if roles were reversed, an enormous amount of our fans would be apoplectic with rage that it wasn't a yellow.

No only the ones that don’t know the rules.

Funny that, because that's how Porktalk see it.
I've had to watch it back 70 times just too make sure my eyes weren't playing tricks.

Yes mate they are deluded

Bristol fans take

Most are sound and agree it's nailed on and both decisions are correct but there's a small minority absolutely determined that it's wrong and twisting anything they can to argue that. I suppose that's to be expected.

What surprised me was the second tier podcast actually arguing it shouldn't even have been a penalty. Moore falling forward rather than falling backward means he wasn't hauled back apparently and his legs weren't touched that much, ergo, it's not even a pen.

I think because they’ve appealed he can play tomorrow night, it was mentioned on Bladespod by Roygbiv.

 

[Hollinsend]

Or nothing to lose. They're very short at the back anyway, so probably prepared to chase a slim/non existent chance. 3 centre backs, two of them now out, with McNally injured and Dickie suspended

 

[originaltrueblade]

The club are deluded and on another point ot we’re all paying more to go because of them

Dickie is a dirty ba****d makes a habit of it

I thought a ban had to be specifically lifted in order to play?

 

[DifferentClass]

Is Goodman representing them?

Not sure but what’s the point in appealing if you can’t play anyway?

 

[Cheeky Blade]

To get a decision one way or the other before kick off?

P.s - seem to recall that Burnley CB being rescinded the next day?

I listened to that those two tit's are just engagement farmers and have probably had too many jameson and ginger ales
They got absolutely hammered on social media by fans of all clubs and were just trying to use their platform to do a pr salvage job

 

[Blademan89]

Why wouldnt you if you was in their position? Nothing to lose by appealing and everything to gain by winning it.

Even if you know it is right decision, it's worth a shot and if it comes off your laughing.

Seems unlikely...

Not sure but what’s the point in appealing if you can’t play anyway?

Two reasons

1) it might be successful you never know
2) it's a 2 match ban so if they are successful and make it he can play in the final

I just hope that if there is some form of penalty for a spurious appeal they get hit with it. It's the most nailed on red card I think I've seen since Solskjaer(sp?) against Newcastle

 

[Gimli]

I understand the appeal, nothing to lose.

I’m actually staggered by the amount of people who think it was the wrong decision to send him off.

 

[ForgeBlade]

Would be funny if he was allowed to play and got sent off against us for the 3rd time in a season...

 

[Piffle and Tosh]

Nailed on penalty

Any action taken on the nasty challenge off the ball on Moore at the end ?

Just for interest, I’ve looked at what people have posted on different team websites, Stoke, Sunderland as well as PorkTalk and the pattern is similar. Initial reaction, never a red, dubious pen, and stuff about double jeopardy, then gradually it sinks in that the attempt to play the ball was after the grappling and the ref probably got it right.

Don’t they add an additional game if appeal is divisive/frivolent?

I was saying the play-off final may count towards the extra game ban for appealing. He won't be playing tomorrow unless it is overturned. I probably didn't explain myself very well as usual

 

[Ranmoorblade]

Looks like the suspension will only apply after an appeal has been heard.

Or the managers comments after the game about the referee.

 

[Ginger Gnome]

It’s a one match ban.

You usually get an extra match for second red of the season.

 

[Eddiecolquhounsleg]

It’s a one match ban.

He’s already been sent off once this season so he gets a one match suspension for last Thursday’s offence, and another one match suspension for it being his second red card.

Edit. Just seen Ginger Gnome’s reply.

 

[Ranmoorblade]

I thought all cards from the regular season didn’t count now? Cappy

That’s right, they don’t. Yellows received in playoffs also can’t lead to a suspension, just reds

Edit: read the other persons original post. I can’t say 100% whether a second red has a harsher punishment, as it would in the regular season. The FAs guidance notes are open to interpretation and I’ve never asked about that specific technicality
