Meanwhile the ref sees the frog carry out a series of offences so no further action can be taken. Im confused. It's as if they are just making it up as they go along..

Possible yellow. Christie - Pushes him away after Christie's attempted stamp. Referee's only mistake here is not having Christie cited for the stamp.

The ref also saw McKenna challenging for the ball at park head and he was handed a 2 game ban. Its fucking disgusting how this bunch of crooks are allowed to rule our game.

Fairbairn Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 To be fair Brown's been strutting about as if he's had the biggest baws in toon for a number of years so you can't really blame Alfie if they've got in the road of his boot!

I was only pointing out their reasoning for their decision, namely that the ref seen the original incident therefore no further action can be taken, yet in the case of McKenna it was the same yet he was banned.

Was it the same? The referee never gave a free-kick against McKenna, and given the horrific nature of the challenge, suggests he never seen it properly.

sbcmfc Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Baffling, but not surprising. Those statements appear to be working as they appear untouchable now. Id say there was 1 red and 2 yellows in there (being kind to Morelos and baring in mind he’s allowed to kick people). How could he have seen all 3 incidents and not even booked him, it is beyond comprehension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair or not, it actually made for a better game. The only one I would say warranted a booking (at least) was the Brown incident, but it was extremely early in the game, and the claim would be it was accidental (the ball was in the vicinity).

It was clumsy, but looked much worse slowed down or as a still rather than live or at full speed. However that’s a different argument. Surely this was an obvious mistake, as if he saw all 3 incidents and didn’t even book him.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having just watched it back I'd be utterly astonished if he didn't witness the challenge. McKenna clearly played the ball therefore I can't imagine where else the referee could possibly have been looking, he was also directly behind the incident.

There was two players going for a loose ball. McKenna got there first. The initial call of the referee to play on was totally correct.

My feeling is Madden knew that and purposely left it out of his match report to save his blushes. You surely can't compare that McKenna tackle, a potential leg-breaker, to some Morelos petulance. Edouard went off injured, Brown got on with the game, as did Christie and Ralston after some play-acting. The ref saw all 3 incidents and decided there was very little in them. I suspect the Brown one would've been a booking, had it happened later in the game. 4 minutes ago, faircity said: Having just watched it back I'd be utterly astonished if he didn't witness the challenge.

There's a difference between the referee seeing the incident, and you being utterly astonished if he hadn't. From what I see, Shay Logan blocks his view.

Guest faircity Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 As sbmfc says, it wasn't horrific. McKenna was ahead of him, at no point did he look to check that Edouard was coming. It was clumsy, nothing more. We will have to agree to disagree on the other point, if the referee didn't see that then he must have two glass eyes.

It can still be clumsy and horrific tbf, although I suspect that's going over old ground. My only gripe is with a 2 game ban, he actually unduly suffers simply because the ref hadn't seen it. My point is for the many folk comparing the 2 incidents, the very obvious difference is one ref reported to having seen the incident(s), the other hadn't.
