pete165 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Dunne handball - harsh, outside box. Herd stamp - even harsher. We are due a deflected flukey winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laivasse Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Watch the replay and notice that the lineman doesn't start flagging until around 5 seconds after the imaginary stamp, during which time there was no appeal from Ollson, so essentially the linesman doesn't know WHAT the hell he was flagging for or why. Should be an easy one to appeal at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieB Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Yet again when people see the replay... it will be a referree's decision that dominates things. Appalling decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makouns_grin Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Fingers crossed we can grab one and then shut up shop, I fear the worse though. Lets hope people don't forget that, along with a cracking performance from wee Barry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaIoW Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 1558: Just a bit more on the red card/West Brom penalty at Villa Park. It was the linesman Darren Caan - who was assistant ref in the 2010 World Cup final - who gave it. Chris Herd and Jonas Olsson had a tussle as Chris Brunt prepared to take his free-kick, and Phil Dowd had a word with Herd then. Seems he marked his card even before anything actually happened. And, crucially for me, Olsson did not complain one bit when they tangled in the area, although he did celebrate when the penalty was given. Got all that?

snowychap Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 We are due a deflected flukey winner. Would be nice. Off that **** Olsson, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 This was the incident that led to the card, no the one that followed on the edge of the box - The flagging from the linesman happened some time after that and the foul was by Olson on Herd they both got up and moved on, maybe 10 seconds later when Dunne went for the header, the linesman flagged.

jimcohen Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Sky sports saying another angle shows herd kicking out at Olson but not seen it myself. Crazy decision. Feel sorry for the lad herd. He deserved his start and was doing ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverPeacock Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Again its really not Dowd's fault, the linesman should be dropped to non-leagues because that is one of the worst decisions i have ever seen. But it's the ref who makes the decision and has to justify it in his match report. In my book, if Villa appeal successfully against the red card, Dowd should spend a few games in the lower divisions because it waas him who wielded the red card. Lower league teams have it hard enough as it is, unfair to have him officiating their games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Completely ruined the game and our potential result. This is why technology should be used. Action has to be taken, this is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He flagged straight away here. I promise you'll see it later and the linesman called it immediately. Herd knew it. He walked straight off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoD Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 It might be worth taking Bent off for Albrighton and stick Gabby up front and just commit to trying to hit them with pace. Though Albrighton will prolly give away a cheap free kick that leads to a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 My view: no reaction from Olsson over the alleged 'stamp'. How can the assistant see through the body of Olsson and make the call? Herd was playing very well up to that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NurembergVillan Posted October 22, 2011 Moderator Share Posted October 22, 2011 Guys, seriously, Herd kicked him about 10 seconds before the edge of the box incident. You'll see it clearly later. It was stupid retaliation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was stupid retaliation. He didn't even make contact, it looked on a zoomed reply he wasn't even looking at Olsson. I can't see how the linesman made the call, there was literally nothing in there. A tangle at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
