I don't think we can say the referee gets it wrong. By the letter of the law he got it right. Whether we agree with the law is a different matter entirely |  | |  |

If he’d blown up for the original shove by Sanderson,that would’ve stopped the crap that followed it. |  | |  |

As usual a good post here stowmarketranger ,there is no justification for not getting on top of it immediately. However its across the board and I need to add the stupid offside rule that is in existence today. I watched multiple games this weekend and the linesmen refusal to raise the flag contributed to several dangerous collisions ,last ditch tackling etc when the play was clearly offside but no flag. I know its the new rule but for the love of God flag it immediately before someone ends their career for nothing |  | |  |

Yeah I know it's the rule and referees hands are tied but at the very least is their nothing to stop them sending both players off? Surely that tackle was violent and reckless and designed to solely hurt the opponent? |  | |  |

Arguable. Don't think James could have complained if he'd got red, instead of yellow. Sanderson's reaction was dumb. As Cluve said, even Favin Ward can spot a haircut like that when he nuts an opponent. |  |

It wasn't a shove and if he had given it and they had scored from the fk - all happy? Just this once can we NOT lay the blame for that one at the ref. |  | |  |

We've been here before and discussed this before, but this is the 1st line in the offside law and as we found out when I researched it, its been there for ever. "It is not an offence to be in an offside position" |  | |  |

It WAS reckless - hence the yellow card. |  | |  |
