O'Callaghan should NEVER have been sent off

O'Callaghan is a class player and I'm as biased as the next Albion fan, but stamping is a red regardless of what went before. Did'nt help that the ref was so poor.

The ref missed an awful challenge by Lynch in the first half, a diving lunge and ended up 'scissoring' the right wingers(?) legs. I was amazed that Cox didn't get a yellow, as he seemed intent on winding up the ref early on.

I thought the sending off was harsh at the time, but having seen the replay on TV, he clearly trampled on the player. Whether there was inent or not is anyones guess, but it did look at though it wasn't an accident.

Yep, that was a very bad tackle.

All round the referee didn't exactly have the greatest game.

the ref was so poor.

Understatment of the season so far. The ref was appalling yesterday. He seemed to have no control of the players at all. How their No 14 lasted so long before his yellow I have no idea.

Right to send George off though.
