Post Match Southampton 1 Leicester 1

[Jeff]

Five English teams in the Champions League

And if Arsenal and Chelsea both finish outside the top four, the team in fourth goes into the Europa League. I'm hoping that happens and Liverpool finish fourth.

That’ll do nicely

1. I couldn't stand looking at PMs face any longer.
2. That isn't ancient to me, I listen to that episode regularly. It's sensational.
3. I anticipated that it would confuse saddos that don't follow AM. But you fecked that up straightaway.

I'm up to episode 67 after starting from the start and listening whilst falling asleep. The McLaren song about picking the team and tactics at QPR meant that sleep was not forthcoming last night. So funny.

Spuds WITH manure perhaps. "and".... not so sure.

Vestergaard’s red card was overturned.

Vestergaard’s red card was overturned.

That makes no sense to me whatsoever.

 

[mabrah]

I could certainly see the reasoning for a red. I thought that given where it was, if it was worthy of yellow then it was red. So I presume it wasn't worthy of a booking either?

What I saw was Vardy in on goal but for being brought down. I'm not saying it was intentional to bring him down but it was nonetheless what happened.

 

[Lako42]

That makes no sense to me whatsoever.

Well they gave the wrong reason for the red so I imagine it was a technicality.

 

[M17TT C]

I'm sure there would have been serious meltdown on here if we had a red card given for that and I'd be part of it.

Correct decision to overturn imo.

 

[mabrah]

Would have been no meltdown from me. For me, it was one of those decisions that I could see a reason for but saw it as a matter of interpretation. A harsh decision perhaps but I wouldn't have been up in arms screaming injustice about.

 

[Payne74]

If the red card wasn't given it would of been a better game of football with 3 points more likely for Leicester

 

[Micky]

It was dangerous. Red card all day.

 

[Brown Nose]

So it was a foul but not a denial of a goalscoring opportunity? Is that correct?

They weren't interested in whether the foul was dangerous.

The appeal appears to be that Vardy wouldn't have got to the ball before the keeper which seems a really odd thing to overturn.

That's just guesswork.

Yes, seems so. I was reading around to try and educate myself and that was the gist I got.

Of course, he would have stood more of a chance (of getting to the ball) if he wasn't stumbling after being clattered.

 

[camberwell fox]

If he was sent off for dangerous play, I don't think there could have been too many complaints. As it stands, the decision for sending him off was wrong.

Silly refereeing.

Silly refereeing.

So it was wrong to send him off when he clearly did something wrong? Am I right or wrong?

 

[Brown Nose]

He got a one match ban overturned when he should have got a three match ban.

That is bonkers.

Not sure...partially correct I guess

It wasn’t a foul.
