There are no provisions in the FA rules for protecting your face. it was a penalty and a red, because the foul prevented a clear goal scoring opportunity. Stockdale was an absolute beast though

Yes, what would you do if a missile is launched at you from 5 yards? Penalty maybe, sending off disgrace.

It's sadly the rules though - the players know it, even though it's instinct to protect your face it's gonna be a red. Harsh and annoying for us, but it is what it is.

That really f**cks me off mate. I would have felt the same if it was one of them.

Oh, me too! As soon as I realised it was a Pen I thought "Oh for FFS, that's FFS gone for 3 matches...". I get it's the rules but some leniency and on situations like this they should take each situation on it's merits. Wonder if we would appeal or just deal with it...

Browsing the owlstalk forum and came across this post:



"Hard to disagree with that statement.



We didn't make it difficult enough for them, needlessly gave the ball away at times.



You could see the confidence come back into Brighton's play.



Be glad to get them out of this division this season."



It's nice to be that team

:)
