No chance. It's not for decisions that can be interpreted, just for clear black and white situations.

Yes...Pep had finished with the Wigan geezer and was heading for the ref

Disagree, in my opinion it was that bad the ref should have sent off 10 players leaving only the Man City Goalie on the pitch for the second half!
We saw Saturday that’s not the case!
I was under the impression it’s for red cards as well?

Ref using his yellow to write the player name down and then correctly shows a red for a reckless challenge

Makes me laugh, why is Pep having a go at Cook? He didn't send the player off and it was his player that dished out that controversial tackle which if not red was still mighty reckless.
It's absolutely fine for a referee t do that in normal circumstances (like denying a promotion chance) but to do it to one of the Big Six is surely unforgiveable? Professional suicide at the very least.Ooooh. Contentious, Referee had the yellow ready to go, and has been swayed by screaming home players and crowd into showing a red.
Surely that sort of thing would never happen in an important game officiated by a professional, Premier League standard referee?
Oldham v. Rotherham or the like from now on.......if he's lucky!

I think you are being lenient there by allowing the goalie to remain
Good wind-up attempt there.....................

So it’s a Brighton Wigan semi final with their goal keeper cup tied
Exactly, it's the kind of player protection that Peps been calling for.

Pretty much bang on with their core support, I lived in Wigan for about 4years during the time when Martinez and Jesus played for them at Springfield Park, I went a few times watching with Wigan Ath mates they had possibly the worst away end ever, I think we drew the first time Brighton went it was freezing 2-2 if I’m right. Anyway they attracted anywhere between 2-3.5k at home back then, the rugby clubs support had already started to dwindle from the highs of 30k in the past.

Why is Pap not sent to the stands
Wouldn't say no! Who would get to wear the stripes, though?
(Thinking about it, Wigan, of course, because we take every possible chance to wear the yellow kit and avoid wearing our stripes wherever possible).

That was just a complete balls up from the forth official (or is it fifth official). There is a reasonable argument for whether it was a red card or not therefore as I understand it it would not be overturned. If it was last man and there was clear simulation from the attacker (no contact) then it would be overturned.

Good on Wigan. Love the way Cooper hasn't rolled out the red carpet, blown smoke up Peps arse and told them how great he is. They want to win and aren't overawed by the opposition.
As for the BBC, Pep acting like a bell in the tunnel is EXACTLY what I pay the licence fee for. Show it FFS.
