Can't think of another explanation. First one a red. Second one a yellow. Bloke still on the field. Unreal.
Any other manager would have had him subbed by now. But Peps not any other manager. Wonder if he will start the second half? Surely not.
Well he does in deed come out for the second half. He’ll be off if he even if gives someone a dirty look
First tackle was the darkest of orange cards - but probably a red. 5 mins later the same bloke goes straight under another body and doesn't get booked. Unreal.
Unless I've seen the wrong one, I think a yellow is fine..? Either way apparently should have got another yellow 5 mins later!
Sending-off offences A player, substitute or substituted player who commits any of the following offences is sent off: • serious foul play Serious foul play A tackle or challenge that endangers the safety of an opponent or uses excessive force or brutality must be sanctioned as serious foul play. So apparently a tackle from behind with studs up going straight through the leg of a player nowhere near the ball is not endangering the safety of that player? Piss right off. It's as clear cut a sending off as you'll ever see but the officials turned a blind eye to it. I wonder what incentive there may be to those officials to give a decision favourable to the club who are currently under investigation for over 100 counts of using money to illegally cheat...
