Pity the ref didnt see it and give him a yellow card
...
On this basis - AJ & Locadia were both mainly playing as ‘Forwards’ in Dutch 4-4-3s.
The ball is up in the air to the left of Andone/Field. The ref is following the flight of the ball and isn't looking at the two players, which is why he didn't see the incident.
Has anyone ever seen a referee's report. What is it - is it a blow-by-blow account of the 90 minutes as far as he can remember. Or just an account of bookings, sending-off's, goals, and so on. For instance, last night's incident, would he put something like 'coming together of a few players in front of me - didn't see anything wrong'? Surely not, because there will be a hundred incidents where he 'didn't see anything wrong'. If he wrote 'Andone, possible elbow - okay in my view', fair enough - but merely not mentioning something doesn't mean he didn't see it. I don't mention every car I pass on the way home - because it's normal. Are they lengthy? And so on. I'd be interested to know if anyone does know.
I've had a look online, but the only guidance I can find is 'misconduct reports', and obviously if the ref thinks there was no misconduct, he won't mention it. Which strikes me as a bit of a circular argument really - and the only way a ban could be avoided would be if the ref did see something and awarded a free kick or yellow card or something. But even if he awarded a free-kick, I doubt if he'd remember after the match all the reasons why.

I thought the ref missed several naughty fouls including a penalty and I agree plead guilty hope to get of with a warning or not.
I do want see more of him as I think he could be a great player for us.
If proven, is it a 3 match ban ?

The whole retrospective thing is absurd IMHO , had the ref seen it and been a red card its a one match suspension , as the ref didnt see it (no fault of Andone's the ref didnt see it) he gets a 3 match ban.
The ref must have been aware of something because Field went down, and stayed down. The ref walked over to him to see what was wrong.
He isn't looking up in that still. His head is straight, not tilted back.

I see, he’s got no field of vision, that will explain him missing the pen, not giving corners, and other mistakes.

The fact he has been charged, means that the FA have already considered the footage and have found him guilty.
He has a right to appeal that guilty verdict, but history suggests that is a waste of time.
While you’re probably right on appealing, I’d be tempted to send in footage and stills and ask for clarification as to how exactly the ref hasn’t seen it when he’s a few metres away looking at the incident.
I always thought the ref does not ball watch but looks at the area where the ball is expected to arrive. This is quite noticeable at corners and set pieces.

The system has been good for clearing unwarranted cards but to use it to give an increased ban simply because the officials had no view of an incident is wrong and unfair especially when you look at incidents like Lukaku's against Bong last season.
‘The ref should have seen it and sent me off at the time’, isn’t a great defence, though!
