No way. that is a bullshit call. He touched the players hair but by no measure did he grab and pull the hair. The premier league is ****e and calls like that bring the game into disrepute not the actions of the player.

He pulled his hair. 100% violent conduct.
 
Show me the violence in that action. It’s an insult to the English language among other things and I am sitting here supporting Leeds by the way.
There's zero reason to pull him back by the hair. None at all. It's not a massive pull but it's a pull nonetheless and a red card.

I dispute that there was even a pull. Compare that to Stephen’s yanking curly to the ground. DCLs head barely moves and Martinez only looked at the ball. Anyway, that’s why I wouldn’t make a referee.
 
Big result.

If Leeds win their next two home games, vs Wolves and Burnley, they are surely safe. For one thing it would mean Spurs needing to win at least four of their last six (including against Leeds) and that looks well beyond Spurs at present.

I agree, and Calvert-Lewin also smacks Martinez too! Could have been 2 yellows. Harsh. The "hair pull" didn't look that violent to me.
 
He literally yanked him back by his hair. I'm not sure how you can't see that TBH.
