villianusa Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 It wont be the last time you see him in a Villa shirt I know that for sure. I know at this minute he doesn't think he is going in January and yes that is a bit of ITK info from me for once. It wont be the last time you see him in a Villa shirt I know that for sure.

Papillon Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Weimann on the Delph red:"The ref said he thought it was a yellow but he got shout from 4th official saying it was a red." Fair enough really, that's why they are there and next time we might get the call from the linesman. Clear red card, idiotic challenge in an area where they present no danger. We cannot afford all these red cards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We cannot afford all these red cards... Like we did when Mason clearly elbowed and headbutted Benteke right in front of the fourth official? There has been some atrocious officiating this season, unfortunately we have been the victims of it. Oh well, we all better cross our fingers and hope for a decent official in the future. Not acceptable or good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) It's an official fact that every team in the premier league has - in the view of their own fans and manager - been the victim of poor, biased and unfair refereeing, that has consistently favoured opposing sides.

briny_ear Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Just for the record, I thought the ref got it right today. Those tackles that aim to stamp on the top of the foot are vicious and dangerous and need to be stopped. Disappointed that Delph could do this.

Stevo985 Posted December 28, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2014 I didn't see the game, but I've seen the tackle. I don't think we can argue to be honest. Maybe slightly harsh, but I don't think a red is a terrible decision. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowychap Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I don't think we can argue to be honest. Maybe slightly harsh, but I don't think a red is a terrible decision.I'd agree.My immediate reaction was one of surprise but I thought otherwise seeing it again. I could see why it was given though it was a tad harsh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree. I think we had a lot of bizarre decisions go against us this season, certainly more than most. I am not going to moan about officials being bias though, for me it is simply a case of officiating in this country being very poor. Standards need to be improved.

AVTuco Posted December 28, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2014 Not a red for me. Pace and power were not there to make it dangerous. Yellow yes, but not red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfingers Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 In Delphs defence, I would say there was no malice. I don't think anyone can justify going in at full stretch, studs showing, higher than the ball and then coming down on the opponents foot. Harsh in terms that it was unintentional but fair in terms of it was reckless. You can't simply lunge in like that, hack down dangerously with studs showing & then apologise, claiming that you were only going for the ball. A typical Delph mis-timed tackle. its part and parcel of what you get with him-he is aggressive in the tackle but gets it wrong far more frequently than most. To curb his tackling would be to curb one of the strongest elements of his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 No chance of us getting another red card rescinded can't see us appealing Have back to back red's ever been rescinded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
