    Huge win as I said before this game we needed the 3 points here to kickstart the season heading into the winter period.

    At least Dunk got a bit of a rest towards the end of the game but have no clue what he’s done to deserve a straight red or 2 yellows for dissent it’s so rare even when players keep arguing.

    Weird to see Van Hecke of all people trying to calm the team down towards the end.

      Did you see he got the 2nd yellow/straight red for trying to shake the ref’s hand after the first one? They showed the clip after the game, doesn’t seem like a card.

        I haven’t seen any clips of it just from what I saw he argued with him got a yellow, muttered something under his breath and walked away and then got whistled back for what looked like a straight red.

          Looked like he walked back and tried to shake his hand and the ref sent him off in reaction to that but yeah maybe something else, we’ll have to see what he gets.

            Just ridiculous feels like we’ve been shafted by the new rules more then any team, i’m sure De Zerbi’s rants don’t help but we get more cards for back chat and time wasting then we do for actual fouls these days.

              Honestly with this season and all the shit last season I’d rather have RDZ just say it like it is, he wasn’t doing it last season and we got that bullshit at Spurs and loads of other awful games anyway.

      From my maybe suspect lip reading skills, after he got a booking for dissent he decided to call the ref a bellend.

    Looking forward to seeing every player that talks to the ref for about 30 seconds get a red card from now on. I’m sure this rule will be applied in every game consistently.

      Shaking the ref’s hand is a straight red now, tough one. Fernandes is getting 80 years supermax if he shoves a lino again.
