It was a red card......player had his arms wrapped by another tackler and the head shot was 100% Intended......straight red! I though the ref ad a good game yesterday, but if that had been a London tackle and we'd have lost a player to a red for it, I'd have no argument.....
JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
Of course a london player would have got a red for that. Luckily it was not a london player, and luckily they had the vid ref to look at it and give his view. It was a yellow, that’s what he got, it chip wrapping now, doesn’t matter

It would only have been red had he made contact with the head.
I sure you post what suits you on a previous post you stated the above.

Yep another sensible post. Do you respond so flippantly when a player queries your decision or do you save your sarcasm for a message board?

NB a while ago a I called you a tool and you have done nothing to persuade me otherwise. A head high shot means a red card. The newspapers said red card, the TV media showed a head shot and said a red card, the fans saw a head shot, the team saw a head shot, the player felt the head shot and had the bruises to prove it, you and the video ref are the only two saying different so why argue about something which has been proven. You leave yourself wide open when you still argue against a proven fact
