Looks to me like Mike Dean has used VAR here. There is no way he sent Mecca off for serious foul play at the time.

He's looked at the video after, seen Macca got the ball first(so he can't be sent off for denying a goal scoring oportunity) and decided that the only way this will stand up is if he changes it to serious foul play(as Macca's foot was a bit high)

Unfortunately I expect the fa to side with this poor excuse of a ref!

this is a panel that knew Wes thomas's red wasnt a red but instead of making a stand, they declared it an Unduly Harsh red without wiping the bloody penalty. Bunch of cowards the flipping lot of them

They might reduce the ban to one game ,

BUT

They might increase it to tour games,

Its a good job we got Russell.

I wasn't aware that Sincil Bank had VAR installed.
As far as the appeal is concerned, it is worth a shout. The most we could get added to his ban is one match but if the appeal is upheld then we could get it reduced to just one match or even completely rescinded.

Although relatively untested, anyone else think that Russell did ok when he came on? Not a bad stand in to have and his kicking was noticeably more secure and accurate with a flatter trajectory than Macca's..

Russell is a good keeper, so they obviously think it's worth the risk of an additional match being added to the ban.

Wouldn't surprise me if their submission to video evidence included footage of and mention of the elbows to try and influence the panel! Best get Ohman and his black eyes to introduce it as well!

The amount of red cards we have had this season is astonishing. We are not even a dirty side. and i've seen far worse culprits than us this season. Lincoln and a few other teams take gamesmanship to a new level, yet seem to get away with it in the main.  

Watching MOTD last night and Sterling got hacked down in the box. Stone wall penalty no question, and the ref just waived play on. I often wonder what they are seeing, and it's obvious they have never played the game.

I know two wrongs don't make a right but it cancels out the penalty that City won a short while back when Sterling fell over his own legs without the opposition being anywhere near him

I think the fact that our team doesn't seem to surround the ref and hound him like some other teams in this league goes against us.

I'm not saying I want to see us do that but wonder if we are too nice compared to some who seem to get at the refs a lot more.
