[Albion] Andone

[portslade seagull]

Good player, like his aggression but needs to channel it. If he gets a three match ban we are reliant on Murray with no back up in the central strikers position.
Highlights our lack of ambition in the January window.

Gyokeras ??

Gyokeres - appears to prefer the central striker role

So, not mentioned in the referees report, which is why he's been charged.

What was the report? "I'm useless and can only see out of one eye" Or "I don't want to admit that I got it wrong so let someone else sort it"?

Either way, surely the referee is at fault.

The whole system of retrospective punishment makes no sense when Mings has got away with something that would get you sent down if you weren't on a football pitch but "the referee saw it".

So in that case he saw it and got it completely wrong. In Andone's case the ref got it completely wrong by "not seeing it" despite it being straight in front of him. What's the difference please?

Total bollocks.

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.

Really hope Locadia gets the nod over Gyorkeres, especially now Ali J is back and we have three genuine wingers.

 

[Langley]

Against West Brom in the first game he was absolute dreadful. Even doing air shots.

I only saw one, how many did you see ?

Yes you are. Being nice won’t win you anything.

Other than RED cards

Gyokeras ??

Central striker? Premier quality?

 

[amexer]

As Locadia is only possible replacement if Murray gets injured maybe consideration should be given to leaving him out of starting team i

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.

Once Izquierdo is fit leaving him out will be a formality.

 

[Eeyore]

Laughable to suggest the referee didn't see it - watch the footage and he is clearly looking directly at the players involved, about ten yards away.

He'll get a ban though for sure. Nailed on.

In fairness, the referee is turning towards the passage of the ball and does not have a full sight of Andone. I can see how the incident itself may have not been clear for him.

One's enough. Top players don't do it ever.

blue and white specs i'm afraid.

Yes to a degree, but we have seen a lot worse deliberate elbows than that, and it was the the same body movement anyone would have trying to get a man off their back. Button suffered more from his bang in the face.

 

[jessiejames]

I want us to have a nasty side to our game, the same as other teams. What gets me is at half time we walk off the pitch, but a lot of the time you see the referee walking off being hounded by the opposition captain. We need Bruno or Dunk there listening to what is being said or explaining that the ref had made a wrong decision.

Other than RED cards

Man U under SAF ruled by being spikey ****ers not nice and gentle.

 

[NooBHA]

No point in everyone getting kickers in a twist over it.

Accept the ban. He stayed on the pitch. Scored the equaliser and we are in next round of the Cup. Could have been so much worse if he had got sent off

 

[andy1980]

Hope he gets a ban. accepts it and move on afterwards. He is a player who can play an important part for us this season.

 

[jessiejames]

Why doesn't the ref get retrospective action against him for missing a clear penalty or the elbow.

Could well be relegated to fourth official for a week. Unofficial form of ref-shaming
