Not enough 3 sided grounds these days. Portakabins in the corner too. Lovely stuff.

 

Edit: it only has 2 sides :lol:

You on about Exeter? It's under development I think. :)

Aye, I assumed so but nice to see anyway. Remember going to Bournemouth when they were shit and they just had a wooden fence behind one of the goals as they'd ran out of money building the ground.

...And I imagine your avatar is the perfect visual description of you taking in the stand-less scenes. Profuse nods of approval.

I can see why the referee gave it. It’s not a red, but he has deliberately went in from behind at the guys heel, which is becoming a more common injury. I can see why the referee may think it’s more reckless than simply being late and cynical.

Reckless = yellow so he got it wrong.

I thought it might have been for the bit before it as well, it's the only explanation I can think of because a cynical trip like that is synonymous with yellow cards.

I might be making it up but I thought they changed the laws so that referees can give a red card for players with no intention of going for the ball. I'm sure Xhaka got a red for it last season.

 

Rarely gets enforced like

And yet we've never had the good fortune to have Colback sent off for doing it, despite it being one of his party tricks in shitness.

Dermot Gallagher said about that Xhaka incident:

 

For me, this is the most interesting decision of the weekend because, hand on heart, my immediate thought was that this was a yellow card. But having seen it again it is a red card. The reason for that is because the player has no intention whatsoever to play the ball, he can't play the ball and his sole intention is to bring the man down

 

You'd have plenty of red cards in a game if they intepreted like that. Shelvey would have been sent off yesterday
