[Albion] Newcastle United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Clive Walker]

1 match ban - will miss the Preston match - what a shame. Or will it be 3? Radio says 1

Are you certain?

 

[GoingUp]

It was unnecessary, you want to encourage skilful players to express themselves but at 3-0 up near 90mins it was a bit reckless.

But saying that, it's always going to look worse in slow motion.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

He didn't mean it, but it was a red

 

[Eeyore]

Should the VAR of got involved there?

Arguably a red, but the ref had full view of it, gave a yellow and wasn't a clear and obvious error?

It is clear. And he was right to take a good look.

 

[Don Quixote]

Yes it is.

No it isn’t.

 

[Weststander]

Whilst Newcastle cloggers hacking down Lamptey in full flow, got yellows. With intent.

 

[vagabond]

It's a red card. Blind high and open studs.

Not intended. But no complaints.

If that was an oppo player we would be seething.

Agree... it’s unfortunate as we know Biss is an honest player, but technically reckless even if unintended. It’s a red.

 

[GT49er]

FFS. Newcastle kick our players off the park, then Yves gets sent off for an accident.

It's in the rules, innit. Brighton must not be allowed to look too impressive. Winning 3-0 and taking the p1ss, we deserve everything we get! We should know our place...............

 

[upthealbion1970]

Clearly no intent but it was dangerous

 

[RandyWanger]

Trossard too slow to make a decision there.

 

[clapham_gull]

Very dangerous play, had to go.

[Wardy's twin]

Death of the overhead kick...

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Reckless getting your foot that high and could have blinded the kid. Absolutely no intent but there doesn't have to be. Could have gone either way but feel sorry for both the player injured and Biss.

 

[Marxo]

Shelvey 'meant' to hack down Lamptey.

 

[London Irish]

Should the VAR of got involved there?

Arguably a red, but the ref had full view of it, gave a yellow and wasn't a clear and obvious error?

VAR guys would say it was a clear and obvious error

 

[willalbion]

Red card all day long for me. Real shame for Biss and us. But that’s reckless and dangerous. He had to go.

 

[OzMike]

Bloody fool, so close to end of the game and now miss the next 3, Brighton, you just couldn't script it.

 

[The Wizard]

How comes we never see players get sent off for over head kicks where they kick a defender?

Totally ridiculous.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Newc nuked 3-0

 

[RandyWanger]

10v10 it seems with Lewis not coming back on for them
