Not only that I would have said it was harsh if a pig had been sent off for the same offence.

If we are gonna send Smith off for a handbags at dawn offence there are not gonna be many players left on a pitch on a saturday afternoon.

It stinks.

The correct punishment would have been a booking for both players at worst. Arguably a talking to would have sufficed as well.
Couldn't agree more!

Like I said last night and 'MillerBill' mentions further up, Sky comms kept saying oh yes there is something, oh yes a coming together etc etc but they didn't say AT ALL what he was meant to have done. I know Hendrie is as thick as the proverbial two short planks (nice enough guy but he is), he, nor the main comms could say what Smudge was supposed to have done. Ump**** replays so why couldn't they? I don't usually jump on the ref bandwagon but that red was out in lightning speed. Appalling decision! It was an absolute nothing set to. See it up and down in every game and it's a simple keep them apart like Wing did and get on with the game. Shocking decision and my mind is set on that. For the record I think we can do well still even without the big man, just an appalling decision. Another against us. Always against. Ref did well before that minus Smudge having his shirt ripped off him.
