2021/22 Allan

[bicycleheader]

Doesn’t the fact he is nowhere near the ball AND off the ground when the contact is made mean it’s in the dangerous play category rather than just yellow card professional foul? Not saying it’s 100% a red, but my reaction initially was ffs that’s a red. I don’t see why so many are so sure it shouldn’t be. My main focus was he is off his feet when he hits him which I thought means they view it as “out of control” and putting the other player in danger ?

1 game ban or 3 if the corrupt premier league don't overturn it?

3 for “serious foul play”, so the question must be asked

To be honest I thought it was an unnecessary tackle as Peter Beagrie St. Maxima was running str into Doucoure.

Worked in our favour though.

The sense of injustice in both the crowd and on the pitch carried us over the line.

 

[BullensRoad]

Just me who thinks it's a red?

 

[4 Eyes Better Than 2]

Just me who thinks it's a red?

Yes

If that is a red card the game is 100% finished. Turn the lights out.

 

[ToffeeDevil]

Just me who thinks it's a red?

It's a yellow, contact was minimal and Allan's foot is under his studs

 

[ilikecheese]

For me it was a hard as F professional foul. A mile late and a clear intent of slowing down an attack when vulnerable. Deep yellow but never a straight red.

 

[Zeitgeist]

Never a red.

Does the palace game count towards it?

 

[Gaffa]

Appeal it Everton immediately

 

[PhilM]

If you think that's a red, give your head a wobble. It's a hard, professional and cynical tackle that happen in many, many games and end up as a yellow card.

Gareth Barry was notorious for them.

 

[BNJ1878]

It's one of those, a classic orange card.

They may appeal out of principle but not a chance it is overturned, as by the law he was out of control.

My issue with it is the inconsistent manner in which VAR gets involved. The ref (who was right on top of play) immediately gave a yellow and was all set to blow for a restart. VAR then take almost 2 minutes to review various angles before recommending he goes for a review pitchside.

As others have mentioned, in the reverse fixture Shelvey does an out of control scissor tackle, turns to face the ref fully expecting a red and can't quite believe it when he sees yellow. Forthermore, VAR don't even feel the need to review.

Once they go for a review, the decision is made off the pitch, basically removing all responsibilities of the on pitch officials who have a feel for the game. The same officials who let a LOT of challenges go unchecked in the first half to try and allow the game to grow.

VAR should make things better/more consistent. The problem is that it's manned by the same pool of incompetent officials we see week in, week out at games around the country.

The whole going to the camera has in the mainstay become a farce - a public execution. Once the referee goes over, you know deep down what the result will be.

In principle, it's a system that should allow the referee to retrospectively change their decision with new evidence. I wouldn't have an issue with that.

Yet in reality, it feels as if it's theatrical mockery - a way to back up VAR's decision by making it look as if the referee has been involved too.

Genuinely, how many times has a referee went to a screen and kept their decision compared to the other? If the VAR think it's a decision, why not just say it?

They did VAR the Shelvey tackle, which was a red about 50% of the time. The Allan tackle is a red 5% of the time, usually when it's caused a serious injury. I agree with red cards for cynical fouls, but you can't just do it once!

All depends what team it is.

Didnt Kavanagh go to the monitor in the City game ?
