    Awful one footed late challenge on Henderson, really could have badly injured him.

    If anyone hasn't seen it, then try and have a look and tell me why it wasn't a sending off.

    When you compare it to Hamills red last Tuesday it's unbelievable.

    If ever there was a example of the regular inconsistency we all complain about, it was these two incidents side by side.

    Only my opinion of course, but I find it staggering that hammill was sent and this guy played on.

    I don't; always been one rule for them and another for us. Them includes all "big" clubs with "star" players, almost any Everton player except Barclay (cos he's played for England) would have been off.

    Just seen it by the way and it was a proper ankle-breaker. Pathetic refereeing.

    I take it from the silence coming from Oakwell that we've laid down and taken the Hammill red card - again...

    The ref has no excuse either.
    At full speed it's a red
    In slow mo it's a red
    From the front it's a red
    From the reverse angle it's a red
    From above it's a red

    In fact in EVERY possible viewing angle it is nothing but a ref yet the protected little angel in black gives a yellow and gets a pat on the back from the fa

    Sadly, I think you're right.

    These guys are ruining peoples enjoyment of a great game.

    Have standards improved since they were made professional? Not one bit.

    Leicester are appealing Vardy's red too.
    In that one he clearly jumps into the tackle two-footed - he does get the ball, but it's still a big leap with all-studs showing and to me looks worse/ more dangerous than Hammill's.

    I agree completely. I won't go as far as accusing them of cheating but where big clubs and high profile players are concerned I think refs are pretty spineless a lot of the time.

    That's exactly the point I was going to make. I bet they do do something though.

    They didn't take any action with Morgan so they won't take this any further.
