Apologies if this has already been covered but having seen Painter's 'handball' I think he was really unfortunate to pick up a second yellow.

Surely it has to be delliberate and trying to be non biased about it, there really was no way he could get out of the way of that.

I thought that on first viewing, but there is a slight forward movement - though that could have been him trying to chest it and misjudging the flight of the ball/distance between his arm and shoulder.

I agree very unfortunate to get a 2nd yellow. I couldnt see any forward movement after watching it and stoppong it many times. Watching FL show I thought Derby keeper was also unlucky to conceede a penalty no argument, but also a red card, very harsh I thought but that apparently are the rules and allow no consideration for the ref.

I thought Painter was very unlucky with the second yellow for it, I had to laugh when I watched the football league show and the commentator stated it was a blatant handball.

Watched it on Football League Show. Never a sending off. First yellow was deserved, second was very harsh.

The Leicester player has kicked the ball at Painter , unintentional handball. Why didn't Mills get a 2nd yellow for a foul on Barnesy when Bamba was down injured and we kept possession ?

From what I heard on radio commentary, the ref and lino's sounded like homers. Then watching the football league show it looks as though I wasn't far from the truth. Painter didn't deserve the second yellow.

Looked a bad decision on the tellybox, but if it was against Leicester at the Amex against their left back who was already on a yellow then a fair few would have been howling for a second yellow IMO. Fortunately it didn't cost us the game, but we do seem to be collecting numerous silly yellows this season mainly through what appear to be weak refs.
