    Would have been lucky to get a yellow. Bad timed clumsy and lazy. Could have really hurt the guy so no real complaints.

    Dangerous play is in the rules, which a studs up challenge is.

    At the end of the day yellow or red jozo gave the ref a decision to make. A decision that didn't have to be made, there was no goal threat and we were comfortably leading.

    I personally like jozo but he isn't helping me with my argument tbh

    The ref was absolutely horrendous but that was one of the things he got right. Stupid * challenge, to even give the ref a reason to make the decision at that stage of the game. He's frustrating as * Jozo.

    Fair enough, like I said it's an awful challenge I just don't think it would've been very controversial to give a yellow there either.

    The Boy Scouts on here will point to the rule book and determine it a red.

    Real football men know that the referee is supposed to unofficially use the rules as guidelines and take into account Jozo was clumsy and not malicious, therefore the correct decision was a yellow.

    Can't disagree with the ref giving the red card.

    If that had been a Hun player on us, we would be raging if they got away with it.

    I heard the ref did hesitate though and looked like he was going for a yellow at first? Which if true, annoys me more. As although I wouldn't disagree with the red, had it been a yellow, you could see why (not head high, not malicious).


    Either way, silly to be so casual with a foot raised off the ground and not be aware of surrounding.

    One of the biggest issues in football is this.
    The fact that too many referees are "interrupting" the rules, or being lenient.
    They aren't there to give an opinion, they are paid to enforce the rules.
    If everyone simply did so, we wouldn't have many debates about what is a red or not.

    On paper though, the Jozo tackle is a red. Though we have seen them let off, that's an issue for the game.

    I don’t get invited any more.

    Yeah I would agree with this, but I would say there’s also a problem with interpretation of the rules because they can be vague. They actually invite the referee to interpret.

    Can’t really argue in Jozo’s case, but the hand ball incidents during WC highlighted the problem with he current football rule set.

    Ive seen bookings given and wouldn't really bat an eye lid, however it was very clumsy and Jozo gave him the option...

    After only seeing it as it happened, I was shocked to see the referee produce the red card. After seeing a replay I thought it was understandable.

    The referee was an utter * though, and he endangered our players by refusing to show cards to Alashkert players.

    I actually thought it looked worse at the game than on that replay tbh.
    Still can't complain about the red and the stupidity of putting yourself in that position.
