Damn that's smart thinking. Or at least, it would be if you'd done it at the time.Did anyone get a bet on Villa for the next goal amongst all that?
EDIT - I see the market had closed - barstewards.

Where I think this was different from typical playing on scenarios, is that Leeds feigned to put the ball out and gained an advantage through ungentlemanly conduct, same as if you shouted 'my ball' to deceive opponents.
agree re bamford and el gharzi.........not with jansson. also the ref and lino can go and officiate in div 2 for a month.
It was pathetic. Leeds were entitled to score. Play to the whistle. If it was Brighton scored I would be unhappy if we then let the opposition score. The villa player injured himself and was not a head injury. Pathetic and tin pot by villa.
Where I think this was different from typical playing on scenarios, is that Leeds feigned to put the ball out and gained an advantage through ungentlemanly conduct, same as if you shouted 'my ball' to deceive opponents. The worse culprit was Tyler Roberts who actually put his hand up to acknowledge the injury, looked like he was stopping to put it out, but passed it down the line!
The referee may have been happy to play on, but by making it look like you're putting it out, then intentionally using that deception to your advantage, that is pretty low. Not sure there is an issue if Leeds had just played on.
Patrick Bamford getting a Villa player sent off acting like he had been hit in the face. Disgraceful
FA Response:
Anwar El Ghazi will be available for Aston Villa’s next three matches after a claim of wrongful dismissal was upheld by an Independent Regulatory Commission. The forward was sent off for violent conduct during the EFL Championship fixture against Leeds United on Sunday [28/04/2019].
Patrick Bamford has subsequently been charged with ‘successful deception of a match official’. It is alleged the Leeds United player’s behaviour in the 72nd minute of the fixture, which involved committing a clear act of simulation that led to Anwar El Ghazi being dismissed, amounts to improper conduct. The forward has until 18:00 on Wednesday [01/05/2019] to respond to the charge.* *
In addition, Leeds United and Aston Villa have been charged with a breach of FA Rule E20. It is alleged they failed to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion during the 72nd minute of the fixture. Both clubs have until 18:00 on Friday [03/05/2019] to provide a response.*
Why? He didn't try to cheat, he was deceived.What action taken against the Linesman who “saw” the “assault” on Bamford? He should be suspended too.
Why? He didn't try to cheat, he was deceived.
They're all incompetentBecause if he was deceived by that he is incompetent.
I think Jansson is a club issue rather than being banned by EFL. Whether he thought he was right or not he ignored the instructions from his manager and made his club look really scummy. Should just be dropped and possibly fined internally without involving he league.
give over soft lad. if pontus really wanted (and i think he did but knows the wrath of bielsa) to stop them scoring he would have done so. Pontus was absolutely right and while bielsa plays the genltemn he knows that too
How on earth did you let Naarch and Shef Utd overtake you? I thought you were nailed on this year.
any retrospective action re Bamford or rescinding El Ghazi's red ...??
