Reyes red card

[kevo]

Looked very harsh. Wasn't two footed, surely just a booking. Blackpool's reaction probably got him sent off.

i just told it was for a slap on the head, but on the FLS it 1) wasn't 2 footed 2) just a symphany handy clappy thingy...

Proves that Dowie didn't know what the **** he was talking about on SSN - "Players should know better than to dive in two-footed". Was he even watching?

Could u even understand what he was saying ...half of the time he sounded like a poor mans warren aspinall

Looked like a red to me.

 

[Beach Hut]

And me - total prat

I was expecting a red from our vantage point. It was his own fault for miscontrolling the ball in the first place. Didn't look quite so bad on TV, but to be honest it put him out of his misery. He had an awful game, seems to have completely forgotten how to defend. Ince had a field day against him.

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Looked like a red to me as well, was a rash tackle to hope to make up for a mistake he made.

 

[slinky]

from the back of the away stand today, i said as soon as he lunged in, "he will walk for that!!"

I'm not a big fan of his, tbh. He has a habit of overhitting passes and the few shots I've seen him take have been pretty woeful. Pleased to see Calderon get the chance to get back in the team.

Opportunity for Calderon simples

 

[GingerBeerMan]

How come he's been playing so bad recently? He was instrumental in WBA getting promoted a few years ago (according to WBA fans) and also playing in the premier league regularly. He can't have played as bad as he has recently or he would have got skinned week in week out.

Hopefully just a bad spell of form

 

[Lifelong Supporter]

Seemed clear red to me. The tackle followed by the raising of his hand to the face of the opponent seemed to leave the referee with no option. There will be no appeal.

 

[BensGrandad]

At the time Warren Aspinall on the radio said that the ref acted on the signs made by Blackpool left back and Taylor Fletcher and that it ws debatable whether it even warranted a yellow card. Havent seen it yet on FL show but will do later, perhaps I will have a different opinion then..

 

[upthealbion1970]

Thought it was a red when I saw it on the tellybox last night

 

[Shooting Star]

Looked like he was going to give a yellow but played up to the crowd...as he did all game. Doubt it would have changed the outcome though.

 

[BensGrandad]

Just watched it on FL show and it looked a silly tackle that was always likely to be a red even without Crainey telling the ref to send him off.

I'm not sure how anyone who watches football and has seen what tackles regularly constitue as a red card can say that Reyes was unlucky!!!!

 

[LamieRobertson]

O/t....I c Claridge has now got three shirts ...wore his new one tonight

 

[BensGrandad]

I would agree with that but also think that the ref was influenced by Crainey in his face
