Didn't think the Austin or Calderon red cards deserved it from the highlights.

Brill thanks for that.

Not sure on the Pen but if it was a foul was it a professional foul, a little harsh I think.

very sensible by ashley stopping Ulloa taking his shirt off.

It looked like diouf went for the overhead kick and the ref has thought he was pulled over. hardly a goal scoring opportunity either, he had his back to goal...

I agree. Austin ran into Barnes rather than elbowed him. Also, Diouf was backing into Calderon as much as Calderon was holding him so I think the ref was just looking to even things up.

But those highlights didn't show anything of the Austin incident?

Have I given the wrong player's name?

The players have a shoulder to shoulder thing, but he pushes barnes with the side of his arm as they come together, like a strong nudge while shoulder to shoulder, Barnes then falls to ground holding his face. Austin (?) was away from Barnes after the nudge, so I didn't think there could have been extra stuff.

The calderon thing wasn't violent enough to be serious foul play, and Diouf was stretching to get the ball, with his back to the goal at a narrow angle, it's not exactly a text book goal scoring opportunity being denied.

Don't think Calde pulled him at all, actually. If he did, it was with his left arm which we and the Ref could not see. But I think Oaf or whatever his name is went for the spectacular, cocked it up and then cried foul. Poor decision.

Great finishes for our goals.

Thanks for posting them!

Calde red is a shocker.

Looks like the ref was swayed by the Leeds fans calling for him to be sent off (which they seemed to do every time one of our players made a tackle).

How long is Calderon suspended for? We could also be without Bruno so may be a little short in that position

One game if deemed a professional foul and not violent conduct.

What are you talking about, I never said nothing! :blush:

Yes, sorry, I missed it. I realised and quickly edited my post. But not bloody quickly enough!
