Great day out ,MS! Glad so many of you turned out.
The only thing I'd disagree about is the consistency of the referee, he did try to keep it calm without unnecessary carding. However, being able to watch a live feed I was able to see a lot of the decisions very closely.
Fessi's yellow was soft, Cardiff had a similar challenge that went unpunished, I didn't see the booking you say they got for a similar challenge though If you're referring to that Thug O'Keefes challenges he was an absolute disgrace the entire game and his yellow was nothing like Forestieri's. The tackle on Fessi as he burst towards the box was a red all day, if you're going to let red card challenges go unpunished, yet book someone for a soft challenge then you're affecting the shape of the game. Peltier had already got away with using his elbow/forearm to shove Fessi down in the back, so should have been carded twice!!
If people still aren't seeing the malice towards Fessi then no amount of leading to the water will help. CC needs to take this through whatever channels he can. Essentially it will lead nowhere as a self-regulating group of crooks aren't going to admit wrong doing are they?
