Why so many reds

[Mogwai]

I was reading Martin "kopite" Tyler's stats and over the last 22 seasons we have had by far the most home red cards out of the premier league ever starts


The red cards awarded to the ever-present Premier League sides in home games reads as follows:

Manchester United: 13 home red cards

Liverpool: 14 home red cards

Aston Villa: 19 home red cards

Tottenham: 20 home red cards

Arsenal: 22 home red cards

Chelsea: 23 home red cards

Everton: 32 home red cards

Why?

I mean we are substantially more than anyone else....

How many were against Diverpool?

Because we don't tackle properly.

Perhaps?

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Cause we committed more red card worthy offences than the other 6 teams?

It's Osman's fault

If true... And the stats suggest something along those lines.. Then isn't it surely something that should be looked into.... Not specifically us, but just that the ref's buckle to the "big" teams

Why'd Villa get less than Chelsea and Arsenal then?

Because they are nonces.... Why can't we be like Villa

 

[toffee matt]

No surprise that the two favoured teams have the least red cards

 

[thirdmantackle]

Some teams have a perception of being physical and therefore referees officiate these games differently.

Because in that time we've played Liverpool 44 times.
