    Positive, given we only had 9 men on the pitch it was very good damage limitation from the team.

    Very poor ref. 1st red I wasn't sure about as from where i sat i didn't think Wilson made a tackle, it look more like their player came across Wilson and there was contact. But i can see from the refs point there was contact and their player went down and wilson was the last defender.

    Bolasie wasn't a red given that the first yellow was given because a leeds player slid in on him not winning the ball so not sure why Bolasie got the yellow and not the leeds player.

    However the ref got many wrong including Delph who should have got sent off for dangerous play as when you fly in studs leading with you boot level with players head its a red, lucky he made contact with his own player and just missed ours.
    Also at the end of the game their player, already on a yellow fowled stead and a freekick on the edge of the area which usually a yellow is given but as he was alreayd on a yellow the ref didn't get the red out.

    Checking other games all together there was 6 reds given in the divison.

    Don't blame the Ref.

    Wilson had to go and Bolassie needs to wise up.
    His brain went, he tugged the Leeds player and then went ass over head - 5 minutes after his first booking - Prat.

    Need another look at the Wilson sending off but was it Woods who wrong-footed the back 4 with about the only header he won all day.

    Woods can't trap Cement.

    Don't agree with that, about Woods ok his first touch ain't that great but he can't be that bad, he has scored 12 goals this season!

    Regardless of whether it is a booking or not, if you were booked 5 minutes ago you have to becareful, you cannot be holding onto players as they're running away from you as your 1st booking is fresh in the referee's mind and he's going to think you clearly haven't learnt your lesson.

    It would have been fair if th ref was consistant as when Wood shirt was being held in the Leeds box so he couldn't get the ball the ref didn't give a penalty.

    I don't think the citys overal will moan too much about the red cards but we like most fans expect there to be fairness by the ref and treat both teams equally
