    a bit tricky without seeing the context to be honest - if the ball is just out of shot and only just above waist hight and both players went for it - one with a head and one with a boot I dont think it is a read card. If the ball has long gone and its a kung fu kick to the head red card would be correct

    How can you "make your mind up" from a picture? Need to see it in real time.

    Looking at that still photo, it looks more like a life sentence!

    Need context of the event really.

    Definitely a red card

    Unless I've missed the change in rules which states you're entitled to raise your boot as high as a Tiller Girl and kick an opponent in the head.

    But then why is it that once a month at oakwell we see a yellow card given for high feet?

    Jordi Gomez does duck his head down a bit. Common sense says accidental, the law says red card.

    It was a blatant red.

    He did

    But even if he hadn't, it'd still have been a red card.

    It was a high footed challenge

    Zamora deserved his punishment.

    Re: Zamora connected

    Of course it's a Red Card.
    That player could have broke his ankle the reckless way the other guy went in with his head.

    Just watched the you tube clip and its a definite red card.

    It looks like not only is the foot very high, Zamora follows through in the challenge.

    He can have zero argument.

    Re: Zamora connected

    I might enjoy that though.

    I actually agree that it's a red card, just like I thought Nani's was a red in the champions league. I just don't understand how all the instances of high feet (dangerous play) i've seen at Oakwell have only been a yellow card and can't see the difference from a ruling point of view.

    I also don't think that gomez made a meal of it but then we all know I like to be different

    And I'll be wearing my leotard!
    Consistency from referees when making these decisions wouldn't go amiss, mate.
