    I thought lita cut in front of Etuhu hoping he would touch him and bring him down. I'd be interested to see it again as well but it's something that gets yellow cards for the defenders but there was no intent from kelvin the 2nd yellows not given to 2 of their players were just as blatant and their first yellows were deserved to Send of Kelvin but give their players final warnings is totally wrong

    Well I was a distance away (Ponte end) but dead in line. Everyone around me except from 'liability Jim man' said it was.

    (Note, in O'BRIEN's absence, Liability Jim man has become, Liability Lawrence man)

    Wei saw it from the ponty and it wasn't even a foul from me especially when you compare it to the challenges in the first half from them! biased ref.

    We only get **** refs anyway so there's nothing new there. Brighton should of been 2 men down within 10 mins of the first half!

    First booking wasn't even a foul but I'm not sure about the second one. Need to see the replay on the telly.

    Very poor ref, one or two Brighton players could have been sent off particularly the lad that twice cynically chopped McLaughlin down when he was beaten in the first half.

    Seen it on football league show

    First one wasn't a foul and the second was only minimal contact, Etuhu put his hand on Lua Lua's shoulder and he went down like a sack of bricks. Lua Lua should have been booked twice for simulation. The referees association needs to do something about all this diving, it is BLATANT CHEATING.

    Etuhu's first yellow was for the foul and not knocking the ball a few yards.

    Can't have been for knocking the ball as claimed in another thread as the didn't see it.

    Think the second booking is 50:50..you see em given. Kelvin stuck his arm out so took a bit of a risk. But the way lua lua went down...beating the floor like he was seriously injured only to sit up as soon as Kelvin was sent off was disgraceful. Has been said many times already But Brighton were worst side I've seen for a long time in terms of playacting.
