It not only was poor but bloody stupid of him to dive in with both feet off the ground like that, no excusing that lack of professionalism in my view, could so easily have cost us 3 points.
We look better without Ward anyway, hopefully this gives Bogle or Paterson a real chance to show what they can do with a run of games
It was a red card tackle. Of course, he could have got away with a yellow if the ref was feeling generous, but he gave a red and it would never be overturned.
I was surprised by our first penalty, but the ref had spoken to the defending players before the corner was taken because of they way they were pulling at our players. W hen the ball came in, one of them was clearly tugging a shirt. The reason I was surprised it was given was because we see it week in and week out and they are never given. Once that is given, when we are pulling shirts in their penalty area and we score, he has to be consistent and give them a free kick - chalking Nelson's 2nd off.
