Well said, I thought the same thing. Does he catch the man? sure. Does the player lunge to try and win that ball? Yes. The ball went well over the half way line which meant he put some power behind it. He couldn't just stop and end up elsewhere to avoid hitting the other player. It's silly. It's a yellow and the ref got it right.

Spot on mate. Also I'd add context: Macalister if he'd won that challenge was clean through on goal - of course Tarkowski's challenge was going to be robust.

It was a red card tackle, you only need a basic level of football to realise that.

If Dunc would have said it wasn't he would have been a moron.

Any reasonable Everton fan would agree with that.

I;ll tell you what the galloot could have said instead throwing Tarkowski under the bus:

"Well, it's maybe one of those 'amber' cards people sometimes talk about".

He didn't though, and that's why he's a rat.

You dont condemn Everton players in public if your an ex-player.

Only thing that winds me up is, the media, pundits and rs fans crying over it. It’s okay when dyke does 2-3 of them a season, not one word from them all.

I didn't ask for your opinion.

I purposely said reasonable Everton fans.

Didn’t say it did, just said Van Dicks is worse as he doesn’t get anywhere near the ball and straight leg front on on the shin.

There's only one threshold though. The cards don't get any darker than red based on the severity of the offence.
