I struggle with Red cards that a clearly accidental.. but under the rules technically it’s a red
I’m more concerned with these terrible hand ball pens being given ruining the game

Can’t think of a situation where you stud a player standing up in the face and it’s not a red.
There’s no doubt it was an accident but it was dangerous

Exactly this. Careless and somewhat reckless but no intent to harm the opponent. He will just have to learn from it.

intent is not a measure of dangerous play.

On his last warning
I'd give it a red but had it been a yellow I'm sure plenty would've understood that too.
Thought the decision to not book Almiron for that dive in our box was a joke though. Even Almiron was sniggering about it.

The ref would've chuckled at him and told the Newcastle player to get on his feet.
Neville would've said it was the Newcastle's players fault for putting his head in.
The bald thug should have seen red for a reckless challenge on the pocket rocket. Intent to hurt was there to see. We need to get In the refs face for that showing outrage and calling for a policemen just like others do.

It was an accident but still a red. But what is obvious is as soon as ref is called to review on VAR they are immediately under pressure to change their decision, as happened with the ridiculous penalty given to palace yesterday
Ref sees it, calls it and then someone in the control centre says.
"Hmmm why don't you just have another look at that"
Clearly the imposition is another ref thinks you got it wrong, so it's march harder for ref to stick with their conviction and easier to simply acquiesce to the VAR challenging his original decision.

I saw in the matchday thread the mention of overhead kicks - they are covered by the laws and only permitted when it is safe to do so. I'm sure I've seen free kicks given when they are tried and it's not safe to do so.
Bis has raised his foot high (a dangerous action), without looking (not showing any due concern to opponent safety). In the modern game, always will be a red.
It does feel incredibly unfair, though, that the deliberate, albeit more controlled, fouls of our players weren't met with similar sendings off.
Personally, I'm of the opinion that any deliberate breaking of the laws of the game, however minor or far from goal, should always be a red. But I doubt that would be popular with the 'it's a man's game!' type of fan who like a bit of rough in the game, like players to let their opponents know they're in a game or get whatever edge they can get if the ref doesn't spot it.
EDIT: Also, that's not sweet chin music. He's not sideways on, he doesn't even tune up the band first!
