054123 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Sorry if I missed this elsewhere, I the build up to our goal, did the Utd player handle the ball? Those aroundme seemed to think so, but we presumed not after the ref showed no interest. It did all happen very quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 What about foul on O’Dowda? Any chance of red as last man? Or too far away from goal? Just not a clear memory of the whole pitch at that point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserved a red for the sheer deliberate intent! He didn’t even try to disguise it and it was as cynical a foul as you’ll ever see. Not dangerous, just utterly blatant.

Just not a clear memory of the whole pitch at that point My initial reaction was that it should have been a red. Yes, it was a quite a long way from goal but O'Dowda was travelling at quite a speed and would have gone through on goal. The defender clearly denied a goal scoring opportunity. I haven't seen any highlights so maybe wrong, but even though there may have been another defender I don't think he was catching O'Dowda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, there does need to be an some sort of additional punishment for this type of act, as it was so cynical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pride of the west Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 I thought it should have been a red to be honest under dangerous tackle category rather than possible last man situation. O'dowda running full pelt only to be body checked could have caused some serious damage to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldlandReddies Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Yep, deffo pen. Defender moved his arm towards ball which was on its way in. I was directly behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you're losing comes to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the team that gets transgressed against that should gain an advantage. Not some other team that the offending team subsequently play later that should benefit from a possible ban.

Swede Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Penalty - definitely not Red card - definitely, all day long. COD pushed it past him and he was the last defender, very cynical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Balls Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 There was another defender coming across so that the Sheff Utd player wasn't the last man. However the foul was cynical, blatant and possibly dangerous, so deserved more than the yellow it produced. As for the handball, without a replay, you couldn't tell from the Lansdown stand, even though it was right in front of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 there was a covering defender on the COD one but I thought he should of gone, he made no attempt to play the ball, other then that can't have too many complaints about the ref Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
