    Pepe merely mugged himself off. He got into an ongoing niggle with Alioski and was plain daft in sticking his head in. The play acting was OTT but the player has no excuse, he got rattled and lost it. Red card, move on.

    If we’re talking simulation just have a look at Jota going down like he’d been kicked in the bollocks looking for a pen after getting his shot off. That kind of **** winds me up far more. Players feeling any sort of contact in the box and hitting the deck.

    Both incidents were bullshit.

    Any playacting should be carded.

    Look on the bright side, Pepe can't play the next game.

    Nah, Pepe had to go mate. You can’t stick the head in and not get a red, irrespective of whether the player hits the deck or not, you’re off. Different when they just go head to head, but as soon as you make that head butt movement you’re ****ed.

    He put his head in there, that's always a red for stupidity. but the falling over on contact is ****ing annoying, players will do it all the time the ref's look for contact rather than the way the player fell down. Do they stumble, if someone's left leg gets contact why does the right leg go up in unison? This is what refs should be looking at, players like Salah should be getting booked, not awarded penalties for his blatant diving, ffs it's clear and obvious on the VAR replays.

    It was a definite red mate, the Leeds lad going down like he'd been shot doesn't change that.

    It's your own fault for spending £70m on a moronic donkey.

    Yeah, you're ****ed if you put your head in like that.

    Somebody probably should have kicked that Leeds twat in the bollocks just to even things up like.

    If Pepe had any sense he would have done it as soon as he knew he was walking. If you are going to get sent off at least have the satisfaction of knowing you inflicted some pain.

    Na fans with attitudes like this is the reason we still have this **** in the game. Just needs a bit of objectivity.

    I'm not particularly interested in the Pepe incident just the culture in general.

    Yeah it was pure coincidence that you - as a Gooner - made this thread the day after the Pepe sending off mate. Just spooky timing that’s all.
