It looks crazy and harsh BUT he marches over to the ref mouthing off. Silly. Said earlier he needed to calm down. Poor.
 
Thought it was even but they were edging the midfield, worried now with the red
 
We are sitting here in the stands baffled. Absolute joke this
 
Was a pretty even game before the ref ruined it...

Crooks has commited so many fouls yet not been booked, smith should have been booked for pulling back clarke

Be interesting to know what Neil actually said. Ref didnt seem to warn him at all, which is what they normally do

Got to be more careful when on a yellow tho

Be a tough 2nd half now

I thought the same but then he calmed down. ****ing daft to do what be did but let's be fair refs that send someone off in a "derby" for that are only put for one thing, a bit of attention!

Calmed down for a bit I should say!
 
Ref needs to be utterly harassed and berated by the crowd in the second half to force him to send one of theirs off, bring back the cauldron of hate.

he may well have warned him I guess.
But agree on the rest
 
What the actual **** man. An absolute joke of a second yellow. Some officials interpret "dissent" like Putin. There's no chance that the ref has booked everyone who questioned a decision so I don't know why he felt the need to do it there.

guess we will never know what he said. He did go marching over to him mouthing off with a petulant teenager expression so only himself to blame even if it’s harsh. Just don’t do it,
