Grimbeard Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Just read Molineux Mix Derby thread, and two things spring to mind: 1, The Wolves fans on there (with one or two exceptions) seem to be a decent level-headed bunch. 2, The running text commentary from those watching DCFC TV was far more interesting and informative than anything I've heard on Radio Derby for years.

Ghost of Clough Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Wigan They to think the Frank Lampard media love-in favours us and resulted in yesterday’s red being biased in our favour. Supposedly the ref is “best buddies with Fwank”. A few seem to think their player shouldn’t have been sent off, with almost all of them thinking Wilson should have been sent off for the headbutt, and definitely a second yellow for a “blatant dive”. Lawrence apparently dived when fouled in the box. They also thought Bryson and Huddlestone joined in with the play acting. And I thought the ref did reasonably well yesterday - one of the best we’ve had this season. Too lenient at times and missed a few small fouls but decent overall.

Well then I have no idea what they were watching in the home end, there was no headbutt or dive. I don't think the ref got any big decisions wrong.

That was definitely a penalty, although the general logic of a football supporter is everyone is against us. I also like the thought of Huddlestone & Bryson 'play acting'. The red card was a stone wall, last man & outside the box so double jeopardy can't come into play. You would have to be less than an idiot to come to any other conclusion. I do get some enjoyment out of rattled opposition supporters talking balls though, so I do hope they keep it up - especially next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the ref got any big decisions wrong. Wilson should have been sent off. Whether the first yellow was justified or not I can't comment but having been booked a second yellow should have followed for diving. Had a Wigan player done that in our area we would be going mad. Thought the ref was ok on the whole but missed Vaughan booting Carson in the head and pulled play up a couple of times where advantage could have been played.

First yellow was fair enough, Wilson reacted so he was always going to get one, but there was absolutely no chance it was a dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said after the Stoke match that Wilson dives a lot, from my view yesterday that was another one yesterday. No contact and he went to ground.

No contact and he went to ground. I can see why you might think it was a dive, but I thought it looked like he slipped, and he wasn't really appealing for it. Wigan players were just looking to get him into trouble ever since he reacted in the first half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen it back but for me his reaction of jumping straight back up was because he knew he was off if it was deemed a dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 What about the kick in Carsons face in the first minute. Carson clearly first to the ball yet the player left his foot in to hit Carsons face. From behind the goal it looked like he meant to leave his foot in. The ref blew but didn’t take any action.

So you think he should have been sent off because he might have been looking for a penalty then thought better of it within a second or so, possibly maybe? The fact he made no appeal, got on with the game and the surface was drenched doesn't give you any element of doubt? He should have been off because you've got suspicions?

If he dived I think he should have been sent off. I think he dived. Not saying I'm right. Raised my concern that he is trying to con refs after the Stoke match so don't think it's an isolated incident. If you slip and are not expecting it I think it would take longer to get up. Just my view and not saying I'm definitely right. Can guarantee if it had been a Wigan player we would not be having this discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my view and not saying I'm definitely right. Can guarantee if it had been a Wigan player we would not be having this discussion. But if you were a ref youd have to be pretty confident youre right to make that decision. Imagine sending someone off because they got up too fast. You think he dived because he's got previous? Maybe he has. But that reminds me of all the talk when Chris Martin getting sent off against Bunley. No you can't guarantee that. I wouldn't think it's right for a Wigan player to be sent off for that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
