Depends on if you mean the incident just inside their half where the wednesday player made a great challenge, then lualua threw himself to the floor and laid for a few minutes while the remaining 9 men tried to defend the counter attack.

No , he was a couple of yards outside the 18 yard box.
....and in even earlier times, like when big John Napier, Nobbie Lawton and Alex Dawson were around, it would just have been shrugged off as "just letting the other player know he was there!" Oh those glorious Saturday afternoons at the Goldstone! Oh well, times change........
I don't remember that one.

Erm I was in the north and said immediately he's gone. High, late and dangerous, nailed on red. Looks just as bad on replays I have seen since.

If there was any doubt then surely the club would be appealing it? It seems that Sammi by his comments post match accepted the decision.

It happened in front of me the ref told him to shut up but he carried on and was booked stupid and senseless deserves a club fine.

Anyone know if we have accepted the ban or will we appeal it?
The ball was off the ground, he didn't jump, he was in control, just late. I think it was a yellow.
Not a ground for defence, but it was similar to the Sheff Wed no 9 challenge, it's just that our players and bench didn't make as big a fuss.

Ref was ****ing awful, but no need for Crofts to dive in like he did...player was going nowhere
Would never be overturned.

Yep. That must've been it.
No they weren't have watched it in slow mo. I do agree that it won't get overturned but for me it was the wrong decision.
Studs up over the ball late into a standing leg is never anything but a straight red

Didn't go over the ball though, it was there to be won. Crofts was late nothing else, no intent, not reckless, yellow.
As above, it wont be overturned, but that doesn't mean the ref got it right in the first place. The only mistake Crofts made was giving the ref an opportunity to make a decision, a month on and he would have probably won the ball with the same tackle as he will be half a second sharper.
