Wullie Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Goes without saying. Shocking decision from the ref. Makes sense. Shame though. But appealing was always the right thing to do. I thought we had no chance. If there's any debate they usually back the ref. Pretty much no one in football thought it was a red apart from Madley and Andy Gray. Apart from everyone on Sky Sports' coverage which is why I expected us to have no chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Thanks ref for a pointless red which massively influenced the result. Fucking prick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Very surprised tbh. Not sure why people are surprised. It was fairly obvious especially after actually reading the rules TCD posted on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Maybe it's time to have a fucking sideline review of straight red cards or something to make sure these aren't massively destroying matches. Refs need to be held accountable for gaffs like this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Very surprised tbh. Not sure why people are surprised. It was fairly obvious especially after actually reading the rules TCD posted on here. As I mentioned previously, the FA usually go with the ref unless public opinion - as decided by whatever moron happens to be in the SkySports/MoTD studio (think Souness/Robbie Savage etc) - vehemently disagrees. Actually re-examining an incident on its merits is the surprise for me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually re-examining an incident on its merits is the surprise for me! Usually there's a lot of subjectivity that goes with the decisions, and they're usually revolving around serious foul play or intent to injure, spit or no spit, etc.. This was more cut and dry and all they had to do was take out the rule book and see a couple of replays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 This would be very surprising. Basically they would be overruling a subjective decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 This would be very surprising. Basically they would be overruling a subjective decision. IMO it would also be saying that it wasn't even a foul to begin with. Seen it a hundred times today and it is so clear that Fletcher runs into Coloccini first before Colo shifts any weight towards the mackem fanny.

themanupstairs Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Also, we all know that this now means Colo's gan get himself sent off against Stoke. Wouldn't be NUFC if that didn't happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 "Fabricio Coloccini will not serve a one-match suspension after his wrongful dismissal claim was successful. An Independent Regulatory Commission found that the match referee had made an obvious error in dismissing the Newcastle United defender for denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity during the game against Sunderland on Sunday 25 October 2015. Newcastle United have been charged for failing to control their players in relation to their reaction to the match referee’s decision. What do they expect players to do when it's "obvious"?

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 So they've overturned it - and therefore accepted it was wrong - but at the same time charged us with failing to control our players? Go figure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
