Gosling

[Wedge Head Tiote]

I've just found out he's serving a three match suspension. Why didn't we appeal it, it was never a straight red, his studs weren't even up. As a result we've lost him for 3 matches instead of 1 when we really need him over the christmas period.

I'd rather have Abeid in there than him to be honest. No massive loss unless someone else gets injured. Even then we've got Vuckic and Perch who i'd rather have CM than him.

According to this, its only 1 match.
Also, Cabaye's one yellow away from a ban aswell, we need Tiote back now.

Why wouldn't it be 3 matches? It was a straight red.

You do realise BBC get things wrong consistently.

Not sure why we didnt appeal, good point. I didnt think it deserved a straight red either. Strange one.

It's a 3 game offence, so nufc.com

Probably saw how crap he was playing and thought it best he stay banned.

Three matches. Ridiculous, it should've been a second yellow not a straight red.

Yes but Martin Atkinson is a bitter man and doesn't like us.

It's 3 matches. Why the hell didnt we appeal? At worst, it still wouldnt be considered frivolous appeal.

i was with you all the way till that point then you lost me

 

[Smudger]

Vuckic would be risky though, our good defence is in no small part due to the fact we play 2 deep centre midfielders (Tiote, Cabaye, Guthrie, Abeid, Gosling, Perch all sit back) whereas Vuckic is much more attacking.

 

[Darth Gogledd]

Gosling has been playing poorly, so its no real loss.

We need Tiote back soon though.

 

[You'veBeenTiote'd]

Well you managed 75% of the post, it's a start

 

[Smudger]

To be fair I think Gosling would play much better with Tiote or in a 5 man midfield, he makes a lot of decent runs forward.

because your standard red card is an automatic one match ban

Two yellows resulting in a red is a one match ban, a straight red, even with a prior single yellow, is a three match ban.

 

[AH]

We should have appealed. Don't care how he's been playing, it's worrying having this many CM's out for so long. Tiote's still a doubt, and if Cabaye picks up another yellow tomorrow then he gets a customary ban. Who will we have then to play the week after, Smith?
