Red card - yes or no?

[Welsh_Cup_1937]

Never ever a red card. Don't get me wrong, it's funny because it's against the Vale, but we'd be thoroughly pissed off if one of our players was sent off for that.

+1, the excessive force element wasn't present. Tonge has zero momentum; he's off balance from a standing start.

Still, if you're off the ground with your studs in the air in the modern game, it's hard to have any sympathy. Will be interested to see if Vale appeal. The ref seemed in no doubt, he was straight to his pocket before Cooper's histrionics had started.
