A goal or even 2 back and a lot have people would have left happier. It's all well and good getting apologies but it does not help that particular game. We scored 2 goals in a few minutes against them a few seasons back. Ok a long shot but not impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 2 hours ago, Real Red said: Beradi was sent off for Leeds in 2015 for a head butt on Leon Best apparently . He also was sent off on his debut for Leeds, two footed tackle and was sent off a month after on his return. What a nice guy eh? Is previous misconduct history taken into account in deciding this incident? If Matt Taylor has no history of head butting or other physical violence is that a factor in their decision? Berardi has history so is that why they were more ready to believe he was the perpetrator? And if so why isn't he getting a longer suspension in the same way that Suarez did for his continual biting?

It's all down to the evidence in front of someone, and let's face it, the evidence was quite damning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With no reaction there is no headbutt. Don't stop there. Without Johnson, there is no Taylor. With no Taylor, there is no Championship football and so no league match v Leeds on this weekend, this season. With no Championship football this season.....

WhistleHappy Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 2 hours ago, EstoniaTallinnRed said: Yes, I agree, he could have just walked away after the foul and let the ref decide on what action would be taken, still he probably had the old red mist, it happens. Main thing is he is not banned for three matches, *but it's doubtful if he will play tonight, unless of course he has some sort of protection for the broken nose. Due to a fondness by their supporters for punching horses I believe there is a requirement in place for Bristol Rovers to keep a ready supply of horse nose bags at the Mem... just in case. Perhaps they'd lend us one for Taylor if he's selected to play tonight? ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazooka Joe Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 4 hours ago, marmite said: It wasn't that bad a foul and Taylor overreacted and got Beradi to react to his(Taylors) aggression. Having said that I think the right conclusion has been reached. How many more poor refs will we have this season? Quite a few unfortunately. But hopefully we'll still end up winning some of those games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you'll find Taylor started it with his shocking foul on Vieira that went unpunished. Berardi then fouled Taylor in an act of retribution, and the rest followed.

I know it doesn't and Berardi has received the punishment of a 3-match ban. I think Taylor is fortunate to have escaped without a card of either colour against his name.

It's very simple to understand. Taylor deserved a red or yellow card, as most of your own supporters would admit. He's ended up with neither. But in the wider scheme of things, it's not very important. We ended up with 3 points, you ended up with zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Only a handful of people - mainly trolls - thought Taylor deserved a red or a yellow. Anybody who is aware of the laws of the game knows better. Not surprising to see a leeds fan have trouble with this, but being angry at being fouled isn't actually an offence at all. Congrats on your points, I hope they serve as some sort of consolation for you. It must be a tough life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought Taylor's foul on Vieira and his retaliation to the foul committed by Berardi were arguably both deserving of yellow cards. Why would I need any consolation? It was a very enjoyable game on Saturday, and an enjoyable weekend in Bristol. It's an easy life being a Leeds fan right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't get booked for a foul unless it's actually a foul, the ref didn't give one. This all came from a throw in. You can't get booked for being angry at being fouled either. There's nothing really arguable about that - it's the rules. Glad you enjoyed your time in Bristol, by all means come again next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
