If you wanna talk about something, do it. I've said how I see it. Posting rhetorical questions gets boring pretty quick.

It’s a foul. If it’s a foul it has to be a red card

It's all in the past let's make some noise and get behind the team Saturday a win and its the playoffs.A much better season than I was expecting, yes we should already be cemented in there but that's football. Definitely need a few ins and outs in the summer which I have no doubt FL has already had conversations with DK.We have only played good in a few games so it's amazing we are still in with a shout.

Da Silva caught ball watching on the wrong side of his man it's not the first time that has happened this season how he hasn't learned by now is beyond me however he had upped his game over the last few weeks and the left back spot was his but the red has opened the door back for bidwell who has looked off the pace recently so it's bad timing as a whole

You’d think lampards taking the must win approach, dangerous game playing for a draw hoping that’s enough, only needs a late goal somewhere and your done, pretty Confident we’ll just nick it, be more confident if we’ve got a at least Thomas and mve back, if you can’t get over the line at home in front of a full house then you probably don’t deserve to

It was a foul for sure

Can understand people arguing wether a red as accidental minimal contact but on flip side he was through on goal

Not a terrible decision either way you look at it though

And what JDS did was careless, so don't see how it can't be a foul. In which case, red card for last man. If he wasn't being careless, he wouldn't have run straight across the back of his heels.

I don’t think he did. I think he went for the ball and there was a coming together and he wasn’t careless. He’s entitled to run towards the ball. Anyway I’m only still doing this to wind Evo up

Millwall and Bristol would have to slip up pretty bad to lose points!

OK, ref. was wrong and Lampard is as well.

Dasilva doesn't have to get out his way and he hasn't changed his line to get in the bloke's way, either. He's entitled to take up physical space and, you know, run! If their player chooses to run close enough to Dasilva that he risks tripping himself over then he's a dumbass. I'll die on this hill. No one is convincing me that what Dasilva did is careless, reckless or using excessive force.

Would be interesting to see training photos. Latibeudiere's injury is a concern from Lampard's comments. Being strapped up at halftime is different to how it settles days after. If he, Thomas and Van Erwijk are not fit and with DaSilva suspended, we may really struggle to get a defence together. I assume if that's the case, Eccles will come in at RB.

@Evo1883

I've read what you've posted and I don't think it's daft to agree with the ref, but I don't think there's an offence committed by Dasilva. That's the crux of it.

I don't think Dasilva tripped him, I think the bloke ran too close to Dasilva, initiated the contact and tripped himself. I'm fine that you and others don't agree.

How can the bloke run too close to dasilva if hes the one setting the pace infront of dasilva ?

Dasilva is a poor defender, he got lucky when Bidwell's form plummeted and he got his place back. Same goes for Binks, he only got a look in when Thomas picked up a knock.
I wouldn't be suprised if both are moved on pretty quickly now.

No. Are you saying every time a player falls over it’s a foul?

If he chooses to run across Dasilva's path, that's on him. Dasilva doesn't have to get out of his way. I don't want to watch a game where that's a foul just because there's the faintest bit of contact. I don't have anything else to say about it so I'm gonna leave it there.

Solid debating skills. Rhetorical questions and insults instead of venturing an opinion of your own.

Nothing says 'I've got thoughts of my own on a subject and I can articulate them well' better than asking hypothetical or rhetorical questions and deploying LOL emojis. Nice work, fellas.

I wasn’t even replying to you. It’s hardly solid debating skills to flounce off and say you are done when shown to be wrong

Ok last thing il say , watch the replay and tell me dasilva doesnt move across the back of the forward rather than the way you are making it out

You can use the lines on the pitch to see dasilva moves across the back of the forward

I'm aware it was at someone else. If it's flouncing to shut up when I literally have nothing else I can add re: how I see it, cool. I'm a flouncer.
