Match Day Thread Preston v QPR

Just watched the highlights and cannot understand why Freeman got either card. Just another **** ref!

 

That'll be it.

 

I've only got the highlights to go on, too, but I do think the second yellow offence was a deliberate foul (yellow card or not). To me, he looked back and down at the outstretched leg before delicately placing his own foot on it. No, it wasn't a stamp that might have broken the leg, but I do think he knew where his foot was going.

And I'm not happy that I'm saying that about one of our players. That's the sort of thing Costa does, not an R.

 

The first one is a yellow, imo. The man was moving towards goal. But the second one... it's hard to tell, to be honest. I can't say I'm 100% sure he could have avoided stepping on him but also the Preston player had a bit of a follow through as well. He made the tackle but also put his legs right through to maybe catch our player?
