RobertN 390 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 If you look at it both incidents happen at nearly exactly the same time McKenna reacted violently to the initial push not the leg incident so straight red for the Aberdeen player 100 percent he tried to put his studs in someones face for getting pushed Morelos might have got away with a booking Good thing we have Defoe to cover next few games Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getstiffed 8,863 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Itll be rescinded but McKenna's was violent regardless of the lack of contact. Seeing it a few times only made it more apparent just how aggressive the kick is. What moreles does is much akin to their penalty: you see it at least a few times every match day. I'd love to know where people think his feet or legs should be during a challenge for the ball because short of phasing out of this dimension I don't see how he avoids the contact he made with McKenna. Maybe he should just stop ragdolling these poor wee souls about and let them have the ball. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of silly incidents or not, we will get good money for him down the line. I'd still rather he stayed though.

OceanRain 2,845 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 It's a red. All day long. If their roles are switched and it's McKenna trying to rake Morelos in the balls, everyone is screaming for a red. If you can't see why he's been sent off you either have severe learning difficulties or you're a compulsive liar. EDIT: Exceptions made for Dan Deacon who is both.

shaka 1,673 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Was never a red card. I'm making a prediction that after Morelos moves to the EPL or one of the top European teams, he will never get another red card. He might get the odd yellow card for being aggressive in challenges but if he plays in a league with professional, unbiased refereeing he will not get a single red card. Referees in Scotland are always waiting for any opportunity at all to send him off, even when they know it will be rescinded as soon as we appeal. The question is why other than them being biased cheats....? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He left the boot in and tried to rake Mckenna's leg, no complaints from me, i like that hes physical but by fuck does he need to wisen up, wont ever get his EPL move doing daft shit like that on the regular. tonnes of potential in the lad to go on and be a quality player, just needs to grow up, quickly. That's never a straight red,behave yourself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakbear 3,586 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Several camera angles. Replayed multiple times. 6 pages of discussion ranging from defo straight red to defo rescinded. I will admit that watching it on RTV last night I felt Madden made the right call. Watching over and over again and reading all the back and forth debate here I think that Morelos has been petulant and sneaky with the way he swings his leg. It’s not needed at all. But it’s not worthy of a red on its own. The ref didn’t have the benefit of 8 hours reflection, multiple angles and multiple replays. I have no complaints that he called it a red. I think Madden had a very decent game last night and if we do appeal then regardless of the outcome I won’t blame Madden. Is it just me or have the refs been better since the big meeting Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morelos has developed a lot in the short space of time he has been here. We can maybe get someone with the same potential but even then it's tough. There's a reason when we sell him that he will go for £10-20mill. We won't spend that on his replacement so as I said, unless we get very lucky, we aren't going to replace like for like.

Creampuff 22,628 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I think Morelos should’ve been booked. McKenna probably deserved a red, but when you’re booking the other guy the sensible approach may have been just to book both (or neither) and get on with the game. Sending off both for an incident like that was lunacy, IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junior Soprano 22,428 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I think we need to accept Morelos the way he is. He’s that type of player, plays on the edge. We accepted Gascoigne flaws and all because that was the type of player he was. Unpredictable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
