Today’s Football - 2024/25 Season

[Alan Whittle]

Love that the commentators haven't even noticed Hurzeler was sent off too

Literally haven't mentioned it once

These are the South Coast Kopites mate. Later on they’ll claim he was never sent off.

 

[ToffeeScot]

Behave.

Games gone when that's a foul and even a yellow IMO

What? It was a crap tackle.

 

[Tommy Chong]

Came from the Brighton manager having a hissy fit.

To steal a few lines from Bohemian Rhapsody mate:
Fabian right now:
'I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
Little high, little low
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me'

Don’t know what Notts Forest are moaning at. Definitely a second yellow

Forest do love a good moan though... Remember them moaning about us last season?

 

[Alan Whittle]

Hudson Odoi onside there. Given offside, kicks the ball three feet and every vermin player screams for a booking.
Horrors.

 

[kenada_blue]

What? It was a crap tackle.

Not for me. Ref thought the same. Someone else saw loads of replays and said "no"

But then again you get booked for blowing your nose nowadays

What? It was a crap tackle.

Yeah, over the top of the ball a bit, scissoring action (hey-yo), that's a deserved yellow.

 

[Obes]

Offside or not, what a balls-up of a pass at the end.

 

[ToffeeScot]

The ref from where he was initially thought he got the ball. Someone else in a better position saw that he went through the player.

More bookings and less fouls in today's game than any period in history.

“ a better position “ = The Brighton bench

Which is convenient when they "miss" other things in a game.

And as a ref how can you go "got the ball" to "oooh nasty, booking, sending off"?

Even if it's deemed a foul...not a yellow for me.

Referees make mistakes? He made one, the fourth official was in a good position to amend the mistake.

That is not the role of the Fourth Official in accordance with the FA’s own guidelines.

Then they can complain about that, but not about the fact that it was a yellow card type challenge.

 

[Chrismac]

I didn't think assistants could advise refs to give yellows? BTW it was a yellow all day long, but the ref clearly deemed it a fair tackle
