...you won't like him when he's angry.

Presumably, this is another one of the list for the "Brighton should of got more red cards!!!1!" crew.

Well, one more second of throat grabbing and the red is his. Fairly or unfairly, I'm quite sure that would have been the case. And it would have been somewhat difficult to argue against imo.

Its like he wanted to try this new shithousery thing but accidently discovered his inner MMA fighter and got a little bit too caught up in the adrenaline... needs a few more lessons from uncle Joel on how to keep it subtle.

I've seen several posts on social media, tagging PGMOL insisting March gets a red card, and that Brighton should've had 3 yesterday.
Just after this incident you could see Solly exchange a fair number of words with the linesman who seemed to show both a bit of understanding and a bit of "...but you can't do that, mate". Its like the context of angry marauding United player was taken into account so a yellow was deemed enough. Nice fingerspitzengefühl by the refs.

Its a still from a video which completely distorts what happened in real time
What happened then?

When I saw Sollys hand move up to Garnachos throat in real time I thought "no Solly, don't do that..." because a lot of times players will be sent off for it, however lose the grab was or however short it lasted. If we turn that picture around with Garnacho fiddling with March throat instead, I'm fairly sure most people in here would say "thats a red". So I can understand the United fans about this one. What they don't seem to understand is that it would have mattered f*** all in the end, so they can't blame March or the ref for loosing - that was all our work and their lack of it.

I doubt Solly was angry; I don’t think he does that emotion. He was just initiating a bit of handbags to burn a few seconds deep into injury time - and it worked. Must’ve been 1-2 mins of players intervening and the ref giving cards out.

It’s the sort of game management we’ve missed at times.

Lenny Yoro has big "Virgin in a US Teen Comedy trying to get laid at Prom" energy.

Couldn't take his attempt at intimidation seriously at all. He looks about 15.
Maybe Poindexter is his middle name...

Don't think it's anywhere near a red and I wouldn't if Garnacho had done it. No force involved which is what the refs look for. I'm sure someone will correct me but I don't think we've seen a sending off for anything similar in the PL this season.

What I saw was his hand brush against the neck, it was no way near a grab or what the still appears to show

Ok. I saw something else but hey ho. Just another case of every one of our players being angelic divine creatures incapable of doing anything wrong then I guess.

Are you referring to the Man Utd branch of the PGMOL?

P.S. I also noticed that it was 8 minutes added on time yesterday, as opposed to the default 6 minutes Fergie time. I can only assume it was to try and enable United to score the necessary two goals to draw the game. :wink:
