Can you give me an example of a player being retrospectively red carded on the instigation of a complaint by the opposing team who also provided the video evidence? This is rather different from the scenario where Sky TV, as neutrals, pick up on an incident unseen by the match officials. I would imagine the s***t hitting the fan if a PL or FL club managed to get an opposing player suspended in such a way.

Interestingly yesterday's Bradford v Consett programme (yes we still do one for 196 spectators while Bradford City can't make programmes pay for 24,000+ crowds) referred to an incident in 1970/71 when the Bradford keeper was sent off after the final whistle at Altrincham on the say-so of the local St John's Ambulance man.

Nobody gets "retrospectively red carded", they get charged by the relevant FA.

They have, it seems reasonable to assume, made a complaint and backed it up with the evidence they have. I don't know why you think this is unreasonable. Do you think that they should have kept quiet about whatever happened because to do otherwise would be 'grassing'?

Out of interest, who was the player who got the suspension?

It happens in youth and development leagues as well as some older EFL Trophy games which were never televised. Clubs set up their own panopticon video for analysis. That is where the evidence for those suspensions comes from. I'm sure the FA have also seen video recorded by fans before too. This must also be the case for appealing dismissals too in the lower leagues.

I don't see what your issue is here.

Originally Balham & now The West Sussex Coastway
Just watched my lot at The Bridge fold to Brighton, seemed for once of late looked decent in the first half & irrespective of a red once Brighton got into gear the back line in disarray as often is the case now :'(

Take nothing away from Brighton in fairness.

With little surprise Graham Potter was sacked earlier on Saturday with Nuno Espírito Santo appointed as his successor during the afternoon. His first game in charge is against Everton on Monday night

I wonder how long it will be before Nuno has managed every team in the Premier League?

He's only on three and many have done more. There again so has Potter and spent a lot less time in management but has become a multi-millionaire for doing very little apart from failing and before anyone talks about BHA, they have gone from strength to strength since he walked.

Where it all started in the EPL and he did a cracking job on getting them (Wolves) promoted, using the loan market but there is something not quite right with reasons on leaving clubs. He has got to be a good appointment at West Ham but how long before problems arise with directors for whatever reason?

Just seen the Premier League Table, how many of the pundits would have had the Palace and Sunderland in the top four at the end of September?
Sunderland were the bookies favourites to be relegated at the start of the season (odds of 1/4 on), with even Derby’s minimum points record thought unlikely to be reached! That has been equalled after 6 games.

My partner has a season ticket and we’ve watched every match. They’ve recruited really well and have an excellent manager in Reggie

Spurs 1-1 Wolves
First point! So close to being 3 although Spurs could have had it wrapped up by half time. Our biggest problem is the players are much of a muchness and the manager is still trying to work out the best X1 and formation.

When things are going bad often a bit of confidence is needed. Hopefully for Wolves this may be it. Small steps.

Crystal Palace 2 Liverpool 1

Am I dreaming that Palace have won the FA Cup, Charity Shield, beaten Liverpool twice, only Premier League side still unbeaten this season, are on a run of about 12 games unbeaten and are second in the Premier League table.

No dream it’s all true and very refreshing too.

This year’s national league crisis club are Morecambe, who started their season late after a protracted change of ownership. They’ve appointed a 30 year old as manager, who has never managed in professional football, and he has promised “one of the best footballing sides in England”.

So how’s it going?

After 10 games they are rock bottom with 7 points, and last night they were 4-0 down at home to Gateshead after 12 minutes.

Gateshead are not a good team, even for the national league.

As a supporter of a team with more than its fair share of abject failure, bad owners and dodgy managers I feel really sorry for their fans, but goodness me the owners are loopy

I haven't been commenting here about Darlo as we have a lot going on at home but last night Darlington 3 v Fylde 1 FA Cup 12th qualifying round replay was a great result. Best performance of the season securing a home tie v Telford in the FA cup final qualifying round.

it is always nice to outplay a full time coined up super club!

In the draw for the FA Cup 4th qualifying round, Hyde United have been drawn away to National League side Tamworth.
a though tie!

Especially them and their owner

Rochdale 1-2 FC Halifax Town

Four wins in a row after an unlikely victory away at form team Rochdale. Rode our luck at times and defended very deep for the last 20 minutes but got the job done. Up into the playoff places too.

I noticed a different name was showing up for Manchester United women’s team games and wondered if it was some sort of sponsorship deal. Apparently it’s the local council that have decided to rename it the “Progress With Unity Stadium”, which is laughable.
The stadium at Leigh Sports Village (LSV) will be renamed the Progress With Unity Stadium, acting as a figurehead for the borough’s new movement for change.

Progress With Unity is the 10-year plan led by Wigan Council to create fair opportunities and help its communities thrive.
