My god, do people really not read posts properly....:facepalm:

Too true, it's not worth falling out over unlike say square crisps vs nik naks for example...

What Calderon did wrong was not defend well - which is what I've said all along, he lost the ball and had it stayed in, was out of position with a player outside him. You're jumping down people's throats, apparently not bothering to consider what they've said. So if your argument is based on...

Why don't you read the post. I've not for a second justified the decision, I've said I didn't think Anthony did anything wrong, and that it was poor defending from Calderon. Not once have I said it was the correct decision from the ref. I never avoided a 50/50, and relished the opportunity to...

Every sliding tackle ever made by someone from a running position to a sliding position will in a still image at some point be completely off the ground. At the point of winning the ball Anthony does so with one leg outstretched in connection with the floor. As far as I'm concerned, if Anthony...

Anthony's won the ball in a perfectly reasonable way, okay a still image shows he is momentarily off the ground, but at the point of winning the ball, it is with one leg outstretched. Calderon is late having completely misjudged the fact he was going to be second to the ball. Complete accident...

No I completely agree, opposing player nips in with a well judged sliding tackle, Calde thinks he will get there well ahead and is aiming a clearance up the field, is probably completely surprised he hasn't got there. Bad misjudgement by Calde, complete accident, but a bad misjudgement all the same.

Calderon basically made a massive misjudgement, he clearly felt he was going to get there well ahead of his opponent and have ample time to make a clearance. There was no intent, but it was clumsy, late, and a foul in my book. Had he slid in like the other player to win it, I doubt either would...

It's certainly clumsy by Calderon as he takes a massive swing at the ball like he's going to clear it into the 3rd tier of the stand, when in fact he is 2nd to the ball. Had he gone in without swinging his leg, he'd have probably won the ball. Maybe not warranting a red, but it wasn't a great...
