Ched Evans - 4 Game Ban For Foul On Alex Scott - Serves The Dirty Barsteward Right!

[Curr Avon]

And here's the incident in the bottom clip....

 

Edited February 10, 2023 by Curr Avon

[bcfc01]

Pity they didn't pick up on Cunninghams cowardly and sly behaviour.

Team of thugs.

 

[WarksRobin]

Ref and assistant were totally inept to miss two bad fouls

[Sir Geoff]

From memory the referee was looking straight across at the Wells incident. He also clearly saw the Cunningham one on Scott. Both should have been dealt with and sent off on the day.

[Red Army 75]

Once again poor officiating could have cost us. Great they have banned him but it doesn’t affect us anymore. All this bad decisions even themselves out over the season. What a load of bollocks that is

[sh1t_ref_again]

Got what he deserved eventually, shame is was not during the game, irony is the ban would have been shorter

The club will or have received a letter of apology from the PGMOL……..

[2015]

Good - dirty bastard 

[Mr Popodopolous]

Correct outcome- watched it a few times now- cowardly. Would have made the last 10 plus stoppage time markedly easier had the correct decision been made at the time.

[Northern Red]

Good.

[W-S-M Seagull]

Once again this shows that we are on the end of poor decisions. 

We played brilliantly to hold on to the win but on another day we could have conceded and a poor decision like that would have cost us.

[2015]

Fancy a 30 odd year old bloke turning around and smacking some 19 year old lad. Real brave

[ciderwithtommy]

Cunningham one so much worse 

[elhombrecito]

Ref was looking directly at the incident (as he was with Cunningham on Wells). What's his excuse? 

[REDOXO]

The ineptitude of the referee would have been pointed out by the assessor and the subsequent committee that has banned Evans. 
 

The Cunningham incident would have been looked at too so I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets a ban also. 
 

What shocks me is the belters on twitter who think Wells should have been sent off for his reaction to Cunningham dragging a set of studs down his leg! I guess victim blaming is endemic up there!

To be fair more than a couple of PNE fans said quite right about Evans and are waiting to hear about Cunningham knowing what he did. 
 

Nasty couple of evil barstewards.  

[BCFCGav]

My blood would be at boiling point with this news had PNE gone on to equalise or win. As it is and with 3 points in the bag - we’ll enjoy the news and move on. More interesting refereeing of Bristol City though.

[Rocking Red Cyril]

Yeah how can they deal with Evans correctly, if late, and seem to have missed Cunningham's stamp

Incompetence, also interesting to reflect on the booking count in the game: 4 for us, 1 (incredibly neither Evans or Cunningham were even booked) for them.

[Never to the dark side]

I thought Cunningham scraped his studs down Nahki Wells left calf.

[1960maaan]

I really want some feedback from or about Refs after a game. They deem it worthy of a 4 match ban, yet the Ref missed 2 incidents. The Wells one, Nakhi had the ball at his feet so the Ref had to bee looking at it. The Scott one from the video it looks like the Ref would have to look directly past Scott and Evans to follow the ball. Why don't we get some feedback or explanation about incidents like these. 
I know that the Powers that be will protect their own, but a little clarity would help. Let the Ref explain what he did or didn't see, not keep them in ivory towers and rely on some other office to try and right their mistakes retrospectivel.

[Kodjias Wrist]

We had a sending off against Sheff Utd and they completely missed a dangerous tackle on Williams. Why no retrospective action given? thats the only thing that will stop players doing it.

As for PNE. Good set of supporters but their identity over the last decade is to be dirty bastards.

He has always been brave around 19 year olds to be fair.

[awbb]

I'm sort of disappointed this came out after Nige's press conference. Though there is no telling with him (I thought he seemed relatively ambivalent with regards to the physical style the Pie Munchers served up in his post game interview), I always enjoy it when he gets the glint in his eye.

What makes me laugh is the word altercation. It implies that there was some sort of back and forth. 
 

Scott got  punched in the head from behind. That Evans is an evil ****, but I like Pearson’s attitude, we have got to learn how to play against sides like this and win. Something we haven’t done well since Gerry left!

The fact a 19yo completely dominated them is half of that equation.  

Still cannot believe Cunningham hasn't been banned (yet), as I would expect them to be announced at the same time?

Nearly 30 years ago, when Martin Tyler used to commentate on Dutch football for ESPN, one of the features was interviewing the referee after the game. I just don't see the problem with refs explaining their decisions or saying they didn't see it. Like everyone else Referees are allowed to make genuine mistakes, and they make a lot less than players do, and those mistakes could cost us but a post match interview would make it seem more palatable. 

[Hello Dave]

Am I the only one not seeing a lot in this? Ok, it was a sending off, but is it really that violent. Looks more of a grab than a punch.

Yep. Think that performance against those dirty James Hunts could be a massive step forwards for our group.   Standing up to their physical intimidation and coming through whereas before we may have caved as a young group.   Big moment in the development of the team hopefully.

How far away are we from being awarded penalties on the Friday after the game?

Exactly. Even if they make an excuse of not seeing the incident, just having their view would take some of the frustration away. He may have followed the ball and missed both incidents, which would be bad enough, not hearing him say he missed it make him appear incompetent .

What you won't see from this angle, but was clear from the live feed, is that Evans stamps on the back of Alex's leg.

Problem is we had the likes of Ian Gay and Tony Wilkins absolutely going mental about how we were playing. Calling for Pearsons head without actually understanding how it takes a long time for a group of players, especially young players to take that step forward and be able to see games out. 

Listening to how Tony Wilkins was on the radio the other night was comical. 

How these people get air time I don't know.

Good spot that, that was very much the cowardly bit I referred to. It's not immediately visible without watching a few times but nasty, cowardly.

[Bazooka Joe]

Chedwyn clearly punChed Alex Scott. But, people shouldn't be surprised. He's a striker.

Evans only knows how he initially got away with it.

Won't be long before hard Ched (dar) is banished to ply his trade, where he was born. with the magnificent Rhyl Madrid,

Only because he missed his punch and caught with his arm instead, he was clearly trying to knock him out luckily he's rubbish boxer as well.

It was blatantly obvious to anyone watching in real time (including the referee who was looking directly at it). He mis timed his punch then followed up with a stamp.

Fair enough, only had a bit of video to go on, obviously missed the stamp.

Remember thinking at the time that it was right in the refs eye line  & did nothing. He’s abysmal . Was equally poor in the fa cup game during the week . Should never be officiating in the football league. Shows how poor the standard of reffing is that he keeps getting games.

Fair play to you for being able to do so, absolutely clueless, the pair of them. The bar could not be set any lower than having him on, he’s worse than Ian Gay.

Wilkins actually said on Twitter he wouldn’t miss Richard Gould because he couldn’t think of anything he had done in his time here.

******* idiot.

I can’t listen to him, after his rant post-match pre-Xmas, he’s just a parody of himself.  He makes Ian seem like a football super-brain.

I thought Wells was very lucky not have received a red card. He lost it with Cunningham and he raised his arms to him which would , with a normal ref, vindicate a sending off. 
I understand completely his reaction but he was out of control. 
Cunningham should have been sent off at least twice. What a synt that bloke is.

If Cunningham had been carded by the ref for the 1st instance then Wells wouldn't have got his yellow. If Cunningham gets reprimanded now for the challenge, does Wells get his yellow rescinded?

He was the same ref who booked luke freeman in the same incident that saw sykes sent off against Luton. So if there was one thing this ref got right, it was consistency.

I honestly can't see what he brings to the table. His footballing knowledge is very limited and on Monday he could barely string two sentences together. 

I think he just likes the attention. On Saturday he tweeted in saying he was unable to call in because he was the designated driver. Think he has delusions of grandeur. 

Unfortunately a lot of our fans listen to opinions like his and follow like sheep.

It's not just that our fans though, my father in law said to me the other day, "oh, you're all happy now, at Xmas you ALL wanted him sacked". I told him he had been listening to the wrong people, but it's all a stick to beat us with.

I rarely listen to Radio Bristol after games, even when we win, I am sure you are aware that Radio Bristol ring those rentomouths, not the other way around, that's why you rarely get fresh insight or broader spectrum of opinion.

I know, I had a big argument with him about Brexit and medicine shortages for Joe.  His view was “it’ll be alright, just speak to your GP, they’ll sort it”.  Guess what?  Firstly, the usual brand disappeared from prescription, now the only other alternative brand has too. Joe has had to move onto adult versions because they can’t get the child ones.  Imagine thinking a GP will be able to sort out medical supply chains?  I rarely block people on twitter, but he’s one I do.
