That is the rulemakers fault

I still stand by my belief had the Ashley Cole debacle not happened mid week, both Torres and Mascerano wouyld not have got a yellow here.

Pathetic again from the lawmakers in our game - this was coming all week

  - Spot on. Mascherano deserved his 2nd yellow, the card for Torres was harsh though. (n/m) (Other Football) - Arganth, Mar 23, 14:33:35
    - exactly!!! and that is why Mascerano speaks to Bennett (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:06:10
      - Only the captain should be allowed to ask the ref what it was for, (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 15:36:36
        
        Is that the rule, only the captain is allowed to talk to the ref? (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:37:34
        
        Not yet but it should be, it's common sense (n/m) (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 15:40:30
        
        common sense (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:41:54

        mainly because you appear to have none, (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 15:46:55
        
        That is the rulemakers fault (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:50:00
        
        And dissent to refs is in the rules. Therefore the 2nd yellow was right. (n/m) (Other Football) - Arganth, Mar 23, 15:44:52
        
        What i saw today is a booking (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:55:18
        
        Ah - that's different then. (Other Football) - the101ers, Mar 23, 16:03:29
        
        the bookings today happened because of Ashley Cole on wednesday. (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 16:05:05
        
        Make your mind up (Other Football) - the101ers, Mar 23, 16:07:25
      - Not his job is it ? Did he (or you) honestly think that mouthing to the ref... (Other Football) - Arganth, Mar 23, 15:16:17
        
        nope, but it wasn't a booking, which is surely the point. (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:20:26
        
        In fact both Torres and Mascerano's cards are not bookings (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:24:01
        
        You talk more shit than most people on this board (n/m) (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 15:37:25
        
        how do you know they're not bookings? (Other Football) - mr carra, Mar 23, 15:35:35
    - Agree. Refs get too much stick IMO (n/m) (Other Football) - shoddy, Mar 23, 14:36:32
      - bullshit - watch the replay (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:04:21
        
        did you watch the game? its not about that incident (Other Football) - megson, Mar 23, 15:27:36
        
        Spot on (Other Football) - KentonCanary, Mar 23, 15:41:08
        
        OK, I saw the incident but didnt realise he had been at it all game (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:38:57
        
        Even Lawro said he should have gone. (n/m) (Other Football) - the101ers, Mar 23, 15:41:24
        
        but not andy gray. And to be honest that single incident alone was (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:43:04
        
        At half time I don't know if he was doing it just to create an argument, (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 15:49:31
        
        he was talking calmly to the ref when he got sent off (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:50:34
        
        but he ran 20yds to have a go about something he was not even involved with, (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 15:52:05
        
        oh yeah, the ridiculous booking of Torres for asking (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:53:41
        
        Even if Torres should not have been booked, which he probably shouldn't, (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 15:59:16
        
        he may have run over but when he got their (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 16:01:06
        
        he committed dissent by sprinting 20yds to confront the ref, (Other Football) - NCFC4life, Mar 23, 16:05:42
        
        ok, I agree he should have gone... (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 16:12:27
        
        Well........ (Other Football) - the101ers, Mar 23, 15:46:53
        
        But as you say, if torres's words were worth a yellow (Other Football) - phrankin, Mar 23, 15:46:28
