Now from my view in the Lansdown, the Leeds player just stood there and Matty just walked into him with force and then his head swung back. Didnt see the Leeds player do much wrong.

Ive heard and seen the video of it but I still cant see the Leeds players head move forwards into Matty at any time. Maybe just maybe our player was at fault.

I thought that on first viewing but on subsequent viewings the Leeds guy looks as though he definitely nutted Taylor.

To me it looked like Matty went to nut him but the Leeds player beat him to it; again my viewpoint from the Lansdown - so both correct in getting a Red whoever may have come out worse.

My view from LS too.  Thought the Leeds guy unlucky.

I think MT had the forward momentum, and has broke his win nose by doing what he did. Stupidity.

A still picture does not really stand for much though. For all that tells me Matty ran into him and broke his own nose.

It looks a lot worse on the video. Thuggish act by the Leeds guy.

I could not see his (Leeds player) head move in that either. Can clearly see Matty's head swing back after contact though. Maybe I need to see it in better detail.

One of those reds where the least deserved is 3 games. Blatant piece of violence from a bit of a "one" by all accounts. Not a guy new to the long walk, shall we say.

Taylor's head does not move until the Leeds player lowers his head.

The more you see it, the worse it looks. Good luck Matty, with the appeal and the nose!!

Anybody get a view of the scenes in the tunnel,  to be honest it looked like at least we competed during the aggro.

I think it was Jamie Mac that had a word with Leeds player as he walked down the tunnel.  Their bench to exception to that and there was a lot of finger point and shouting from both benches.

Matty Taylor walked down the tunnel, nothing was said from either side.  Thats what I saw from the stream.

That was my view too.  The pic shows that Taylor is on the match towards the player.  If he’s ducked his head down with no momentum forward, then you get a clash. Both to blame?  Stupid...whatever happened.

I'm certainly surprised by some of these responses. It's a disgusting head butt and for me he should face a longer ban than 3 matches. 

TOTALLY TOTALLY agree with you. Needs longer than the 3 games. Did you hear LJ saying he wouldn't be surprised to see the police involved. A bit spur of the moment maybe, but you can see City are well pissed off with it. Total thug and needs to focking sort his act out, or i seriously think the guy is gonna go the way of Ben Thatcher

In general I would agree. But as we have the complete video as well it's pretty clear that Taylor did not nose butt the Leeds guys forehead. Is it not?

I was also in the south stand.

Is that you Thatch ? 

Taylor was fouled , stupidly squared up to his opponent and then got nutted.

Red for Leeds player.

Yellow for reacting for Taylor is my view .

Also saw it from the South Stand. Taylor squared up to him and the Leeds player clearly butted him.  It wasn’t even the usual “head-butt” that footballers do and get sent off for. This was a full-on Glaswegian kiss.

A little part of me enjoyed Macca having words with Beradi as he walked down the tunnel.

Yep, it was really good to see our JM and the rest of the backroom staff sticking together and getting stuck in to the opposition. Some may say it's childish but to me it shows great spirit and togetherness.

Well no, he broke Taylor's nose. Did he break his own nose?

I presume this is a wind up? Yes Taylor shouldn’t have stormed over like he did but the Leeds player has clearly pulled his head back and landed a full blown head butt. He should get banned for an extra couple of games for it imo.

His movement was poor today

The Leeds guy should get a lengthy ban but you have to question what Taylor was even doing? Bit of a nothing tackle and he goes squaring up to him like he’s been scissor kicked!

Taylor was all but saying ‘go on then mate, headbutt me’ - why go looking for it? We’re 3-0 down, get your head down and get on with the game.

Just back after a lengthy spell on the sidelines and on for 10 mins before getting a 3 game ban... ****

Guilty or not... no need.

Nice to call your own player that, especially seeing as he got nutted, broke his nose and all because he didn't like being fouled. Probably pissed off that the game was almost up before he got his chance today. Hope they appeal, hope he gets off and he should. Never a red for Matty. Yellow max.

Watch it back. He’s properly nutted Taylor... the broken nose is a bit of a giveaway.

Top trolling.

16 posts newbie.  Hmmm. Gaschat was probably a bit depressing today....   :gasmask:

Agreed.  Just watched the highlights. How Taylor gets sent off for that is unbelievable.

Maybe breaking a nose is a red card offence these days.

citd just telling the truth

Must be hard losing 3 games in a week without scoring a goal, can't blame you coming over here

Watching it live I thought that Taylor had engineered the whole situation, taken a dive, and the Leeds player was incredibly unlucky. Watching the replay the Leeds player clearly nuts him and deserved a red, Taylor did engineer the situation and should have just got a booking for it.

Posted

I've seen the vid. 

I thought MT was gonna chest bump the Leeds fella. But the Leeds player went full on Glasgow kiss and down went Matty.

Aden Flint then literally leaps like a Salmon from nowhere and pushes the Leeds lad away...

Red for the Leeds lad. Yellow for Taylor I reckon.

i hate leeds but be honest matty dived

Could clearly see the Leeds player headbutt Taylor from where I was in the south stand.

To be honest Taylor has been made to look a bit of a mug after chasing him down.

But I've no idea what the hell he was sent off for.

Posted

From W16

MT did a face to face.

Leeds lad laid the nut on him - and I haven't even seen any video on it yet to confirm my view.

Having seen the replay I'd say red for Leeds lad and yellow card as a max for Taylor. 

Live it looked like Taylor walked into him at pace and threw himself but I'll hold my hands up and say there was a definite head but...

Same for me. But even for those who disagree the decision makes no sense. If Taylor had engineered it then he should go but Beradi should stay as he wouldn't have done anything. If Beradi nuts Taylor then he should go and Taylor should stay. The only explanation I can think of is the ref thinks the decided to headbutt each other at the exact same moment which is ridiculous.

Agree with the above.

Leaving aside being on a football pitch, if somebody marches towards you in a provocative and aggressive way,  I think you are fully entitled to defend yourself.

Didnt get a good view yesterday, but watched the video 5 or 6 times this morning.  Matty walked towards the Leeds player but his head did not move.  Head but by the Leeds player deserves a heavy fine and a 5 match ban.  Seriously, I fail to see what Matty did wrong.

Why do the police not just prosecute for assault with the video evidence they have? Answer - because its easier to prosecute motorists driving at 23 mph in a 20 limit.

Thought that Leeds were the dirtiest team we have seen at AG for a while and got away with most of it.

Taylor's unlucky to get sent off (and I guess more so to have a broken nose as well) but I very much doubt we'd get an appeal overturned seeing as he was the one that went up to Berardi initially.  It's somewhat unfair, but we've seen it a million times.  It doesn't matter which is "worse" (and a full on headbutt is obviously far worse than just being upset), the officials will cite it as instigating and they'll both get the same punishment.  That said, I think as a club we've got a case to ask for further punishment on Berardi who I could see getting an extension to his ban (although I doubt it).

Posted

As much as Taylor may or may not have deserved the Red, had he acted properly he wouldn't have had any incident. Him squaring up and charging towards the player caused this fracas. If he let the ref do his job, he wouldn't have even got a yellow.

I was in SS too and definite headbutt by Leeds player.  Those in Lansdown wouldn't have the right perspective to see it as clearly I'd guess.

The only explanation I can think of is the ref didn't really have a clue so decided to cover all eventualities!!!

Yellow at worst for squaring up...why the **** did he feel he needed to square up...stupid behaviour and deserved a red
