[Albion] Baleba's second yellow

Kalimantan Gull said:

Which I actually think was critical in the decision. Pedro was smashed into by Lewis Cook, who was the subject of Baleba's late challenge, even if there was virtually no contact. I reckon Atwell reckoned it was a deliberate retribution challenge from Baleba and acted accordingly.

Wasn't the same player. It was Lewis Cook (no 4) who was involved in the challenge with Joao Pedro. It was Kerkez (no 3) who was involved in the challenge with Baleba.

Pops in.

Sees a thread ruined by squabbling with Hans Solo (who is just an attention seeker).

Pops out again.

Harry Wilson's tackle said:

I assume that since it hasn't been overturned it means the club decided it cannot be appealed.

Despite the fact that some posters suggest it can.

And others suggest it cannot.

I'm still in the dat,

The confusion for Hurzeler, who was adamant that it wasn't a second yellow and insisted it would be revoked in post match interviews , might be because you can appeal 2nd yellow cards in Germany. You can't in the Premier League - unless for mistaken identity.
Baleba will be suspended for one match and return for Fulham (A) . Expect Ayari , O Riley or Wieffer, Ayari on Friday. Hinshelwood still injured i think.

PS: My sauce for that was Brian Owen's excellent post match podcast / audio round up after Bournemouth.
