1. pedro kicked it away in first half and ref done nothing
2. when pedro kicked it away, the cone boy and his invisible captain led the complaints for the ref to take action against pedro - when you do that then you better make sure your own players dont kick the ball away at all
rice did kick the ball away so he can have no complaints tho
I've never seen anyone booked for toe poking it one yard ffs. That's not kicking the ball away.
TNT doing their best bending themselves in hoops to justify the Brighton cùnt lashing out at Rice.
Spot on - that was not a kick away.
That’s the issue here.
Rule book doesnt say the ball has to be kicked a certain distance to be classed as kicking it away - rice intentionally stopped quick free kick and we all know it. The problem here isnt that rice was punished, its that no-one else is getting punished for things we are punished for (I'm including tommy getting booked for slow throw in last season)
He couldn't take the quick free kick. The ball was moving. No way were we not cheated there. Fucking shocking refereeing. The Brighton lad hoodwinked the ref. A common sense ref does not book a player on a yellow there. Never seen it before. And we never will either ffs
If that red card isn’t overturned then it just shows the true extent of incompetence at the highest level.
Don't think they can over turn it, it wasn't a straight red .
Funny how the ref didn't book Pedro in the 1st half for kicking the ball away ,but couldn't wait to get the 2nd yellow out of his pocket.
Thats my point - by letter of law if you delay a quick free kick you should get booked (even if you dont kick ball a certain distance), but again referee seen pedro kick ball away far more blatantly and he does nothing
He didn't delay a quick free kick ffs augster. The cùnt played the referee pretending he was going to take a quick one when he couldn't anyway, the ball was moving. And then he puts in the huge kick to make it look like he was trying the quick one. Completely hoodwinked a shit referee. And we will never see a booking like that again. Sickening fucking cheating.
Remember the Martinelli double yellow against Wolves a few seasons ago again by Kavanagh? Never happened again because the rules say a player must know he’s on a yellow before a second booking is issued.

Absolutely fucking disgusting. Blatant cheating. Will you see the victims or cheaty on the end of a joke decision like that this season? Will you fuck.
I remember some shocking tackles going in on our players down the home stretch last season. There were 3 or 4 games in a row where someone got a studs high, over the ball tackle and the ref did nothing….every single time.
And then you’ve that cheating piece of shit today just itching to flash the red. I’m just numb that it keeps happening to us over and over and over again.
