Didn’t think Palmer’s booking was a foul never mind a card either

It wasn't a foul, but he got booked for the way he kicked the ball away, dissent

I reckon the ref thought that the crying bitch got the ball and Thomas took him out at first. Then saw a replay at half time and said it was a high challenge to cover his arse. I think he was directly behind them so couldn’t see that Thomas got the ball.

If that ball gets cleared instead of hitting KDH then no pen. Looks like KDH gets the ball with the ricochet and made it look worse.

That’s a ref who doesn’t know football-it’s a clearance of course there’s a follow through but how else of Thomas expected to get any power without a follow through.

Also KDH just runs through him and isn’t that dangerous?

Red is a red-dangerous play and out of control.

The yellow for Milan for saluting L*ster fans was ridiculous-he should have booked Mdidi for booting the ball into the supporters as the same.

Only booked Milan because of the L*ster players.

Were we really that dirty-12 fouls and 4 yellows.

He should have wielded the cards early on those chopping challenges on COH.

To be fair. 2 yellows were for dissent, and 1 yellow for "inciting" the crowd. Only 1 yellow for an actual foul.

Why didn't he book the player for booting the ball into the crowd?

He’s kicked the ball and DH has ran into him as much as Thomas slid into him. Initially I thought it was probably a pen but from that angle no.

For me, the ref was too lenient first half. Was allowing them to foul persistently without sanction. He had to pull a yellow earlier.

I said the same at half time. He tried too hard to let the game flow then effectively lost control of the game which is what led to their red.

I keep going back and forwards on the pen, can't make my mind up on it.

Definite red though.

Their keeper should have been minimum booked and possibly sent off for his flying karate kick though.

Totally agree with there goalkeeper and out if control flying kick! If Godden had not the foresight to shift his head sideways he would have connected with his head.

Pen was the right call (even though I was surprised at the time) and I wondered why England was quick to get the yellow card out aswell so knew that something else had been seen by him regarding the challenge.
For those who are interested the Laws of the game will point to this-
Obviously it was the follow through-reckless challenge=caution (Yellow card).
The red was correct-excessive force=Dismissed from the field of play (Red Card)
Didn’t have a great game but got the 2 big major calls right (which is usually the case).

My personal favourite of the day was having (wrongly) awarded Leicester the throw-in when MVE shielded the ball out of play, he then allowed Justin to jump with both feet off the floor when taking it.

It’s no good having these prem refs as they are used to their mistakes being sorted(sometimes) by var. They are also very pally with the ex prem players like Wanks (no idea how he ever played in the prem).

Yep-a very fair point. VAR can give the Referee a get out if he makes an honest mistake-does that mean that they become a bit lazy and take their eye off the ball a bit and see it as a bit of an insurance policy?

Taken form the BBC match report.

Sums it up for me. Pen was a mad decision.

Red card was harsh. Felt like a 'bad yellow'.

It looked pretty dangerous in real time to be honest. The penalty however looked ridiculous in real time and more so in the replay.

The behind the goal looked pretty reckless but it’s subjective all you can say is the ref was close to not guess

Penalty was debatable. I can see why it was given.

Red was absolutely a red. Totally out of control and dangerous. Bidwell could have been seriously injured. It was an outrageous challenge.

So then you should have said can’t follow through and potentially cause serious injury. Didn’t seem to be a mark in his leg.

it wasn't reckless and contact with an opponent doesn't equal a foul

he won the ball and then their was a coming together

awful decision but thankfully it didn't cost us

The red card challenge reminded me a lot of Kisnorbo getting sent off for them against us ages ago, in basically the same part of the pitch.

I actually thought he started quite well and seemed to want to let the game flow, but in doing so become too lenient and then lost control.

The big ones for me;

1) Not a pen. No idea what Thomas is supposed to do with his leg/foot after making contact with the ball, his momentum was carrying him that way, there’s no change of direction. I also don’t think his leg is particularly high, especially considering…
2) Their keeper has to at least be booked for the high foot, but the Ref didn’t even give a foul! Also means - if he’s consistent - Thomas’ leg definitely was not high.
3) Definite red card - late and reckless. He’d lost his head about 15 minutes prior to this tackle.
4) Palmer booked for kicking the ball away and MVE booked for inciting the crowd, their player kicks the ball into our fans. That’s a booking for either kicking the ball away or inciting the fans.
5) Their players - especially Winks - constantly moaning so dissent surely? We get Sakamoto booked for ‘dissent’ post penalty decision. Huh?!

Still, we won and that’s that really matters!

Haven't read much on the thread, but the penalty really confused me. It seemed really reckless, in the context of Thomas's high foot connecting with KDH. But Thomas was going for the ball, easily got there first, and KDH was not in the line of Thomas's direction of travel when Thomas committed to clearing the ball. KDH moved in front of Thomas's travelling foot once Thomas was already committed, at no point did he aim his studs in KDH's direction. If you start saying footballers can't commit like that, then you're changing the dynamics of the game.

Probably the most sensible post on this .Clearly Thomas has to firstly challenge and secondly get good purchase on the ball . From a defensive point he does both very effectively
The aftermath of the challenge is where the FA and current guidelines muddy the waters . What is he supposed to do when he is fully committed? Where does he need to position his trailing limbs and body ?
The modern game and guidelines don't make the game flow they complicate

Do you think var would have given a red, one problem nowadays is a lot of major decisions are given by var.
Games have two refs now var and an individual with a whistle.

I can see why the pen was given although I did not think it was. Both Robins and Pearson thought it was. Taggart ex Leicester play on highlights commentary said he was not sure about it and looked surprised. With VAR who knows , if they couldn't even spot the foul on Burnley's keeper or the ludicrous pen given against Inter Milan then I have no idea.

Think about someone like Lloyd McGrath. How whole career built around tackling. Good, hard, legal tackling. If he comes along nowadays he simply doesn’t have a career. It’s a block, jockey and head game for defenders now. You just can’t risk tackling. Look no further than the Leicester pen today for evidence of that.

Could you not say this about any time someone kicks the ball hard?

Anyone who says it was a penalty is talking nonsense, Robins included.

Course but when that recklessness ends with a stud to the inside of someone’s thigh it’s a little awkward to ignore
Subjective anyway
