It wasn't 4 feet up as Stephen's boot was never higher than waist height. Ramirez was injured when his shin came under Stephen's boot in any case.

Yes at Bolton, this is the one that riles me when I think comparitively.
It should be, it is his over reaction that made both decisions look far worse in real time. Cheating twot.

Are they MASSIVE enough to successfully appeal the result as well, or is that a luxury afforded only for shef wed?

Looks like we've moved onto Murphy now.
I believe he would have got it rescinded because being the last man/denying a goal scoring opportunity is no longer a red card inside the box unless it is serious foul play (or hand ball on line) which it 100 percent wasn't.
Brought in this season, which is actually a very good rule change for once.
I could have just made that up completely.... but that would explain it

This. It's no longer an automatic red card if a pen is awarded. There was contact but Lansbury played for that by stopping dead and waiting for the contact to go over. Shelvey? Both off or neither for me, they were both kicking out at each other. Still if nothing else it stopped the media describing it as a one horse race for a couple of weeks...

Incorrect. It is not a red card if the referee believes a genuine attempt to play the ball was made. Pushing and pulling can still be punishable with a red. That is a long way from serious foul play.

Fair enough- I assumed serious foul play was under the same as no attempt to play the ball.
Either way that was not a red.

From the FA
Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offending player is cautioned unless:
The offence is holding, pulling or pushing or
The offending player does not attempt to play the ball or there is no possibility for the player making the challenge to play the ball or
The offence is one which is punishable by a red card wherever it occurs on the field of play (e.g. serious foul play, violent conduct etc.)
In all the above circumstances the player is sent off.

Stupid IDIOT
Funny how Dermot Gallagher on SSN said they were correct decisions and quoted the laws and now some numpty says they were wrong. Both can't be right
players committing accidental fouls that deny goal-scoring opportunities in the penalty area will not be automatically sent off, with a yellow card sufficient punishment.
I think you can say it was an accident

No doubt Shelvey will get a 1 game ban for his other offences if found proved,
