Harty having a very good interview with Dick, and they fade it out. A chance to actually hear the official side. Useless SCR.

A mad tussle between Virgo and Akinfenwa resulted in both being sent off as Virgo trudged towards the dressing room Akinfemwa was in hot pursuit
Well...
Just seen your questions about El-abd being involved, I think he was initially as he was lying on the ground and maybe Akinfenwa did something to him to which Virgo may have reacted. Next thing Virgo was flung to the floor by Akinfenwa and as he went down he also pulled Akinfenwa with him. Everyone crowded the ref, V was sent off straight away and then everyone started following the ref round and eventually Akinfenwa was also sent off. He threw a right paddy and then sprinted after Virgo - who knows what happened then, but a few stewards jogged up the tunnel in pursuit

That's typical harty. There again, this is the BBC's fault for using someone who is doing this job as a hobby, as opposed to employing someone who could do the job in a much more professional manner (there must be hundreds of Albion fans who could).

Oh righty, thanks for that
I see Brighton are going to appeal the decision, sounded like it was harsh on Virgo, but then again I wasn't there so I can't really say.

I am happy to report that he appeared to be very much alive.

Deserved, he reacted and got involved in a wrestling match.

Isn't that a bit like sending a "Congratulations" card to yourself?
