    Poleon's shove on their defender didn't help, but it just appeared to be one of those things. An accident. Hope their goalkeeper gets better soon

    I missed the game. The way some Watford fans are carrying on I thought Poleon must have done something awful, I can't believe Poleon got booked for that, it was nothing

    It wasn't nothing, it was a foul. He pushed the opposing defender.

    But I don't think it was a yellow card, I would like to see the clip of what happened after the foul, but it looks the sort of foul where the ref will only give a yellow card because someone got hurt. See pushes like that every game.

    Saw a push just like it in the build up to Poleon's goal. The Watford fans' bitterness is absolutely astonishing, tell them Ekstrand pushed Poleon in the same manner and they say "that had no intent though" and I'm just like... how can you possibly know? Stop making crap up you bitter idiots, you lost, get over it.

    There's people who are seving 25 year prison sentences for less than what Poleon did today.

    It was an accident pure and simple - and a nice touch for him to ensure he apologised staright after the game - not that he actually needed to.

    I suppose Troy Deeney should be serving life then based on those parameters.

    Not sure whether your comment deserves a <doh> or a <laugh> or both

    Dan Starkley is being sarcastic. One of the reasonable ones who is not shrouded in bitterness.
