Konchesky's Red Card -Ban overturned

[theessexfox]

Bizarre. Will we appeal? 

[Beliall]

probably. ridiculous decison

[dmayne7]

We better. Hutton 'headbutts' Konch and then Konchesky gets sent off?! Almost more annoying when the ref then only books Hutton meaning he must have spotted something. I guess with the spineless officials that we have these days, the ref would have booked Konch for the scrap even if he had seen Hutton put his head in first, meaning that he would've probably ended up getting 2 yellows anyway.

Hope not.

[ousefox]

Disgusting decision. Killed the game for us the arsehole. Still wouldn't have got anything mind.

[adam1]

What was he sent off for - what specific act led to him being sent off? I couldn't see anything.

 

Also Hutton raised hands and shoved Konchesky in the chest - I have seen players sent off for that and what Hutton did was a bit blatant.

[Guest ttfn]

Astonishing refereeing.

Absolutely astonishing.

[Richard]

Even Hutton says wasn't a red

[theessexfox]

Hutton surprised to see Konchesky sent off. Seemed to have a black out though, as he doesn't remember what he did.

[DennisNedry]

Had no impact on the game.

[Corky]

I'm not quite sure how he worked out that Konchesky should've had a red and Hutton not. The challenge was a yellow card, Hutton's reaction was a yellow card.

[ScouseFox]

anyone got a vine/vid/gif? my wifi went down just before they scored the second and came back just in time to see cambiasso try an overhead kick. 

[The Horse's Mouth]

He was the reason Hutton scored in the first place, let's not appeal

[jmono84]

And Hutton blatantly kicked out at Schluup in his back also. Dirty scumbag player. Said in interview afterwards he was a little surprised Konch saw red. Scumbag player

[ScouseFox]

just seen it. . oh well.

Nah but konch came in on him like jeff did - Hutton got up, nutted him then shoved him away.

[Larry_LCFC]

Watching it again, it's difficult. Both are at fault. However when heads go in and there is clearly some movement, the ref is going to make a decision. It was either a red for both or a yellow for both. Hutton has got away with that one but when we are chasing the game, konch should have just walked away.

[MooseBreath]

It was arguably a yellow for the challenge, and possibly a further yellow if the referee heard what Konch said and it amounted to unsporting behaviour or whatever, so two yellows in one incident equals a red.

However, I'm pretty sure the original challenge didn't merit a yellow, and the ref didn't know what Konch said, so I don't think he should have got one yellow, never mind a red.

Hutton's shove was a clear a red card as is even possible. So the ref has got three decisions wrong in one incident. Shambolic doesn't even begin to cover it.

[Max Power]

Please don't appeal.

 

Acually, do they still add on extra games for 'frivilous' appeals? If so, appeal.

[Bamba's Babes]

The only positive is that it was Konchesky.

[foxoffderby]

Should of been a yellow card each

[Stadt]

Hutton was Schlupp's man.

[lgfualol]

He shouldn't be in our team anyway. Hopefully will be off in Jan. 

[FrankieADZ]

shocking decision...

another ref who wont be accountable for a crap game imo

[Monsell1976]

Never was a red, sorry it was for Hutton, ref needs to be brought to task on that performance.

Not making excuses, we lost because we were not good enough.
