Yes, without a doubt. The referee saw it and chose to completely ignore it.
Did Coventry get away once again with an obvious sending off offence when Doyle elbowed their guy in the face?

It was a definite red card.
Are the refs scared of him or something? He's always in their faces. I'd love refs to get to grips with that behaviour and start booking players for it straight away.
As for the whole playoff refereeing, I'm starting to wonder if the EFL and FA are deliberately showcasing poor referees to try and get more money from club's to sort it rather than spend their own money on it
100% a straight red IMHO, plus a citizen's arrest by the referee and handing over to the police on the touchline for assault. Done with malice and intent. If Davies' stamp on Duffy was worthy of a three match ban then this was 10.
