Wrexham v Yeovil - 30/11/2021

[B2TF]

You're still talking about the red?

He smacks into his head with his right shoulder, pivots in the air and smashes him with his left elbow. It's 1.5 red cards.

The "intentional elbow" you mention wasn't an elbow either.

The case is now closed, for I have spoken.

Now it's open again, coz I say so.

A clear win anyway, from the highlights we were the only team having any efforts on goal (even if most of them were shit). Funny how many Wrexham fans online said we only had two shots in the entire game.

It was even up until the red, I think that's what many allude to. There was only one team in it after that.

 

[B2TF]

Yeah you're right he saw him amd thought "yeah im going to smash this guy with both my elbows", drew on all his years of training at a Shaolin temple to hit him with the Spinning bird elbow. Nearly took his head off- he should wait for the Police to pick him up to be honest.

Or it was a clumsy challenge, and he may have caught him with a flailing arm. As your mate said you can see that being a red nowadays if the referee thought he wasn't in control- it's dangerous play. Personally I think it should have been a free kick and a yellow at most. A red is over the top, it wasn't malicious.

You're an angry guy aren't you? have you thought about supporting Halifax?

??? Which one of us is "angry"? You've just made that up.

Besides, your opening gambit could be used to excuse every red card in history. Few are intentional, most are just wreckless.

Well how poor is that? I guess money can't buy you character and spirit, huh?

11v11 that game likely finishes 0-0 as the inconsistent refereeing and weather were always going to ruin the game, so I'm not going to get angry about dropping one point.

 

[Master D]

I think it's a red, he knows what he's doing by catching him with the 'non-challenge' arm. Swung it hoping to land a free one on the way down. Idiot.

Also a blatant penalty on Mullin where their man slips over and takes Mullin out. Some scandalous stuff all night from that ref but we were playing shit with 11 so find it hard to whinge about him. Even though I have and will probably continue to.

 

[Master D]

And the fact the referee appeared to hold up a fucking PINK card didn't help. I thought my peepers were on the blink at the time. I think that was part of the whole confusion as nobody really knew until McAlinden started walking down the tunnel.

Where's his fucking red exactly?

 

[iesty wfc]

i would call that a flailing arm too, he has no right to have his arms that high up trying to control that ball

i feel we have some BEEF

 

[iesty wfc]

hell of a first goal though, if only our wing backs tracked back....

 

[Cashis]

You know we’re getting on for beef when the screenshots come out

 

[iesty wfc]

prime BEEF

Corrected.

You can see why it's a red but you see a couple of them a game at this level and the ref rarely whips out the red. Bromley etc do it everytime they challenge for the ball.

Ref wanted to make a big call in front of a big crowd. Happened to us a couple of times this season. Blessing and a curse being massive football club.

 

[Like a Glove]

You already had beef after we covided out of the original game

It's absolutely a curse for us, we'd be flying if we had Boreham Wood crowds. We're shite at home.

There used to be a blonde/ginger haired NL ref 5 or 6 years ago that would have a big grin on his face every time he pulled out a card, like he was the star of the show and everyone was there to watch him. He was coined as the Smiling Assassin by some bloke stood behind me after he dished out a dubious red to one of ours.

 

[Ooh Aah Paskin]

Having looked at both incidents I think the ref has got the first one on ponticelli wrong (if going by his standards the McAlinden was a red) as the arm is clearly raised... however, a red may have been harsh for that but should have been a yellow at least.
As for McAlinden, it was a stupid challenge he didn't need to make and leapt with his arms up. It might also have been a yellow on reflection but he made the decision easier for the referee to brandish the red imo

First one looks more careless than reckless tbh. McAliden’s is definitely reckless though, just looks bad with the double impact too.

I like how Wrexham’s short 3 minute highlight package finds time to show the Gorman one however, despite no action being taken, as if to say look at WHAT HE/THE REF DID

But that was one of our best moments from Tuesday? Haha

I liked that the commentator took quite a while to realise that he’d actually been sent off too.

 

[EnglishRed]

Just to keep this going as we have no other games to discuss, a new view at the MacAlinden incident

I stick to my posiiton. It was a careless challenge and certainly a foul- I just think if your letting the other challenge go unpunished- which looked a more blatant forearm to the face that this one - yhen MacAlinden gets a yellow at worst.

Ultimately it doesn't matter, the decision was made and Yeovil benefitted from the jumerical advantage as we did against Bromley.

I guess all clubs do it.

Also Mullin scored but was given offside, it must have definitely been off otherwise they'd have shown it

To be fair I thought the penalty shout it also showed looked a good one.

Well they definitely won’t be talking to him now !

Always someone blaming the Jews.

 

[Vanni]

Hmm I dunno. I do see why the ref sent him off but I still think it was harsh esp. when taking into account one of the Yeovil players got away with it for a similar offence.

Re the penalty appeal for the foul on Mullin it does look like another incorrect call by the ref but the footage's not the greatest and another thing is that the Wrexham players didn't even appeal for a penno. The only who did was Mullin.

 

[Stoney Ground]

Like they didn’t show Josh Umerah scoring against you, which was a tight offside
yet showed Hyde missing a chance when clearly offside
